I know that the Food Groups video contained a lot of information! But I hope you now have a better understanding of the benefits provided by each food group and the role each plays in weight loss, as well as some great new ideas on what to eat.
To recap:
- Purpose of Veggies: To fill us up!
- Purpose of Proteins: Keep us full and satisfied.
- Purpose of Carbs and FFCs: To give us energy. We will focus on Fiber-Filled Carbohydrates (aka FFCs) because more fiber in your carbs helps the energy last longer, making them more effective for weight loss.
- Purpose of Accessories: To make our food taste great and satisfying (and to help us eat more veggies).
