Good Weight Loss Foods To Eat

What are some examples of food that I can eat to improve my weight loss efforts?
I am a heavy cyclist using cycling as means to lose weight and I need to get an idea of good foods to eat. I cycle about 5 days a week and I am working on longer rides tp help with the weight loss…
If you are capable of cycling five days a week I can’t see you having a weight loss issue. The cycling itself should offer a very high caloric burn. But in the event that you are over-weight and need additional help beyond the cycling and want to use nutrition as an aid to weigt loss, then there is so much you can do.
Mainly stay hydrated first thing due to the amount of cycling you are doing. You will sweat out the salts and excess water are the first things to go. Which does reduce your over-all weight.
It’s all about replenishing fluids, cleasing the body quickly.
Foods to assist in weight loss are all fruits and veggies. Go vegan for a short period, ( a month should show a healthy loss)but keep eggs and tuna in your diet for the sake of proteins. They are low in calories but still offer the estential proteins for health and muscle tissue that may be lost by improper diets.
One month should tell you if this is working for you. If you see a weight loss then continue the program…………..
Some say water is your best friend and to a point I will agree. All drinks/fluids are basically water with flavorings, just avoid the sugary ones. Diet coke is not your friend!
Black coffee, un-sweetened tea, No carbonated drinks.
Un-sweetened fruit juice ( apple juice has a laxative effect) cranberry juice is a wonderful duretic and very healthy for the kidneys.
The optimum burn time is twenty minutes after a meal. So have a healthy dinner of say:
1 cup steamed/boiled squash with oinions(pepper/garlic..)
1 cup brown rice w/real butter and basil (fake butter is a no-no)
1 cup tuna salad (tuna/onions/pepper/tomato/light mayo)
8 un-salted soda crakers
1 fruit item, watermelon is best for its durectic properties.
then go for your regular ride.
It is beter to eat 6 small meals/snacks than it is to go without a couple of meals and eat 1 big meal. Therefore keeping your metabolism in check. Starvation does nothing for weight loss. It is a very temporary solution.
My Mother, Sister and I used this method, except “walking” was our source of exercise. After 3 months here are our results:
Mom lost: 32 lbs ( beginning weight 178)
Sis lost: 38 lbs ( beginning weight 212)
I lost 27 lbs ( beginning weight 165)
Good luck to you…………….
