    Here's an article I found on the internet that I think everyone should know about. I don't know if everything on this list is true, but maybe it will help you. I found it at http://www.nowloss.com/foods-not-to-eat-when-trying-to-lose-weight-dieting.htm (Yes, I know, people don't always cite their sources, but I just can't plagiarize.)


    "The foods you must STOP EATING RIGHT NOW when trying to lose weight are…

    Chipotle
    Sushi

    A little unhappy with this list because these are two of my favorite foods.

    :sad:

    Crap. There's nothing left. Has anyone invented bacon flavored air yet? Nevermind. They fill balloons with air, and those are pretty dang poofy. I'll just sit here and hold my breath til I die then.

    .......well, that didn't last long, so I guess I'll just have to keep doing what I'm doing <sips coffee>

    I don't understand why you all are being so unsupportive of the OP. He provided you with an article from the internet that is filled with extremely useful information. Why do you all have to hate!?!

    OP, good luck on your journey and please ignore all of the haters.

    Most of what is on that list is correct....but remember like anything else you can eat some foods on that list...just do it in moderation. I give myslef at least one day a week to cheat. So when I decide to eat steak I can eat the ribeye....remember one good day doesn't make you skinny and one bad day doesn't make you fat. Avoid these foods the majority of the time...but take time to eat what you crave from time to time so that you can continue to stay on track while rewarding yourself once in a while. So enjoy a treat now and then:) Good luck

    Here's the point....some of you are going to take this list as a MUST some aren't. I appreciate the OP recommendations but there are some things I am just not going to give up. But I will print the list and try and stay away from as much as I can. One thing I will NOT eat is bananas. My favorite fruit but I have had two dr tell me that for my body type they will just help me gain weight. We are all different and all lose weight differently.

    Honey is a natural anti inflammatory. I personally believe it good for you. All things in moderation.

    I'm so happy I read this article because that's everything I started doing on Monday. The only problem is the processed meats. I still pick up those lean turkey burgers but I make sure no sugar is added and the one I have says that it's only made of turkey meat. Honey has been a tough one to give up though because I love it in my ginger tea.

    Thanks for the info. Haters will always hate. When they continue to remain over weight and say why... you can't say I didn't inform you of the info. This article is factual. I started doing all the and the pounds are coming off in a healthy way and I'm not starving :)

    Thanks man for the info!
