Starch: Starch of any kind is your enemy. So, that means, potatoes, bread, rice, pasta, and sweets. People often mistakenly think artificial sweeteners can be substituted for sugar; however they are not very good alternatives. There is some research that shows artificial sweeteners can lead to obesity actually. Fruits, vegetables and fish, poultry and lean red meat are ok.

Avoid processed carb: Simple sugars and processed carbs should be avoided or limited. This includes any flour product. The fine grind makes absorption quick, and spikes your blood sugar which increases Insulin and promotes weight gain. Good fats such as olive oil and coconut oil are fine in sensible amounts. Eat a rainbow of organic vegetables and 3-4 oz protein with each meal 5 hours apart.
