5 Foods to Avoid for a Tighter Waistline

1. BBQ Sauce-  Yep!  You heard right.  Why? Because of the large amounts of high fructose corn syrup which is known to cause weight gain.  (bbq sauce as well as any other condiment with high fructose corn syrup)


2. Dairy- Keep your dairy to a minimum. Things like whole milk, ice-cream, cheese, etc. should not be a part of your daily meal plan.  (moderation is key)


3. Deep Fried Foods-  when frying food you add hundreds of extra calories to your meal. 


4. Bread -   White bread contains no fiber and has been stripped of its nutritional value during the refining process.  Though wheat bread is a healthier alternative, certain brands still contain ingredients like high fructose corn syrup. (read the label & choose wisely) Bread should not be a part of your daily meal plan. 


5. SODAS-   Sodas are full of empty calories(ZERO NUTRIENTS) and contain high amounts of high fructose corn syrup and artificial flavoring.  Any drink high in carbonation will cause stomach  bloating. 


**Note: AVOID HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP & anything that has a label with unfamiliar ingredients (ie. words you can't pronounce).
