Foods to Avoid

Here are a list of foods to avoid:

• Soda (Yes, even diet!)
• Juices 
• White starches
• Candy
• High fat proteins (Ex: sausage and red meats although red meat is okay in moderation!)
• Anything "Fat Free" (*some exceptions, see below).
•  Did you know that when food companies take out fat they replace the fat with sugar. Sugar breaks down to fat, so in fact your "fat free" treat is not fat free. You're better off eating the natural version of the product as it contains less preservatives and sugar. The fat will not kill you!
• *There are a few exceptions. Fat free mayo contains no sugar and has a quarter of the calories as regular mayonnaise. Also, sour cream is great in its reduced fat version instead of the full fat version. Do not ever buy fat free sour cream or fat free cheese because when they take out the fat the taste goes out with it!
