Low calorie foods: Helpful weight loss diets include natural foods that take time to chew but contain few calories. Examples include carrots, celery, and iceberg lettuce (without salad dressing). When shopping for fruits, buy small ones no bigger than a tennis ball, because fruits contain natural sugar. Drinks without calories include water and green tea. A calorie is a calorie, regardless of where it comes from.

Low cal, high water: Nutrient dense but not calorie dense foods. Fruits, not juice. High fiber foods: beans, whole grains, veggies, fruits fill you up, without lots of calories. No refined grains; portion size counts, e.g. Bagel can count as 4-6 slices of bread. Dash diet (diet approaches to stop hypertension) is good; largely plant based, low fat, easy, tasty, effective. Oh yeah, don't forget to vigorously move.
