in Food and Nutrition
I keep seeing these adds about the 5 foods you shouldn't eat if you want to lose weight; but I've clicked on those links and they never seem to get to the point and tell what those 5 foods are. It's aggravating!! All they show is a rotting banana so I'm assuming that's one of the five. Does anybody out there know what they are.....I'd like to know. One of the others might be corn. Just curious. Thanks.

    They're not true. I've eaten all the 5 evil things throughout my weight loss. My ticker seems to be reflecting the opposite. What you should focus on is eating mostly nutrient dense foods and then, you can have some discretionary fun calories too. You dont have to cut anything out, just be diligent in logging and eat to your target calorie amount and you'll lose weight :)

    Funny, I lose weight eating whatever I want....just in much smaller portions.

    I've never clicked on the link but I'm going to assume the only 5 things you're going to find by following that link are spyware, malware, adware, trojans, and worms.

    They are ads to get you to a place to drop a bunch of money with fad foods that are bad for you. Ignore this.

    I don't know what the 5 are but I'm guessing they are the ones with the most sugar....... carrots, corn.........what else?

    The only foods you should not consume are those that are rotten or foods that you are legitimately allergic/intolerant to. Otherwise, don't worry about it.

    NO NO I had pizza last night. Oh man I'm doomed. Seriously I clicked on that link once by accident =) and well it's spam (hey that may be one not to eat) Luckily no virus was found.

    Ignore it. It's just a sales pitch for something else I am sure.

    Sadly I watched the video (wasting about 20 minutes of my day) to find out it's things like OJ, corn, HFCS and a few other things. It was no big surprise. And, it basically said that people who are overweight eat too much of those things. Duh.

    Wait, meat is low carb, and I love it! :heart: I love it more with potatoes drenched in butter and sour cream, though. :laugh:

    Right? They taste like dirt even when they are cleaned. I can tolerate yellow beets, but that's about it.

    I'm with you... Beets are amazing. Especially in a green smoothie. Well that would wind up being a red smoothie but you get my drift...

    The five foods you should never eat would be the five (or more) foods that you don't like. My #1 rule for my personal nutrition: never eat something you don't like.

    My stomach turns when I see posts of people who swig vinegar because they think it will make them lose weight.
