Aim for anything brown (wholemeal foods)
Vegetable and fruit should be a first choice
Frozen Vegetable arn't Ideal but they still COUNT
Meats - Chicken, Fish and Lean Red Meat
Any kind of Nut or Bean
Fibre Rich foods
Protein Rich foods
Not Processed
After doing my Nutrition Course I now look for different things in the supermarket when I shop.
- Check the packets, any food with more the 4grams of sugar per 100 grams you should be avoiding (4 grams of sugar equals 1 teaspoon)
- If it comes Wholemeal then by the Wholemeal option
- Fill your freezer up with frozen veges, that way on nights you can't really be bothered a stir fry is an easy and simple option
- Avoid a single snack that is above 200 Calories
- By in bulk to make bulk meals of less that 600 Calories (make a large meal, in my case I make a wholemeal pasta filled with veges, each serving is 560 Calories, separate it into 500g containers and freeze, this way you have lots of meals for lunches or lazy nights)
- Make sure you note which foods are calorie dense and eat the correct serving amount
- By Fibre Powder and add it to your meals, it helps to fill you up
