Keep basic breads and grains around to use as snacks or for sandwiches and low calorie meals.

Grains are found in a many foods that can be included in each meal and even in healthy snacks. We need energy at the start of the day and so carefully selected whole grain or bran cereals low in sugar and served with reduced fat milk are important foods to include in our breakfast menu. A slice of whole grain bread is low in calories and can be included with a low calorie margarine and fruit spread or jam as part of a calories loss menu.
Instant brown rice is very healthy, easy and fast to make so throw some frozen vegetables and brown rice into a steamer, cook some chicken breasts and twenty minutes later you have a meal. Whole wheat pitas can be used with a meal, with a snack, and if you stuff some hummus and salad into one, call it lunch. Bake one and cut it into pieces for some crunchy chips as they have less than 200 calories and endless possibilities.
Oatmeal is a great filling food for breakfast and has lots of fiber that will help you feel full throughout the day. At lunch or dinner, eat pasta sparingly, and look for whole grain pasta, but do keep some around for a quick meal. Remember to eat more of an accompanying salad than pasta when you want the benefits of calories loss.
Eat whole grain crackers and cheese as a snack instead of potato chips and you will be surprised at how much of a calories loss this accounts for. Crunchy and filling with hardly any calories, rice cakes are the classic diet food. Add a tablespoon of peanut butter on top for some taste and protein.
Some dairy products are packaged in ways that make them excellent food for dieters! 2% milk, low calorie margarine, low calorie cheese and yogurt are core foods to include in a calories loss menu so make sure that you stock up on as much of this as your refrigerator can hold. Low calorie cheeses and yogurt are often packaged in perfect sizes for a snack and you can calculate the portions of these foods to assist with your calories loss.
Yogurts are fabulous for those following a low calorie diet. Individually portioned and low in calories, they are sweet, great sources of calcium and the perfect size for a snack usually containing less than 200 calories. When the grocery store has a sale on yogurt, stock up.
Some grain food and dairy food can be frozen and along with other frozen foods contribute to a calories loss diet across the length of your weight loss program. Pre cooked and frozen meals are a fabulous way to provide a meal at work, especially since you are aware of the calories they contain. Frozen vegetables can be added to any meal in ways that provide interest and flavour and frozen fruit in unsweetened juice is great for a smoothie or a dessert served with low calorie frozen yogurt. - 15255
