Five small but powerful diet changes to lose weight

Common sense is the KEY! Those on diets with pre-packaged food may find it works for them, but after all is said and done dieters must then decide for themselves what's right with food THEY select on their own. Just my thoughts . . .

I don't entirely agree. I think that low fat diets just leave you feeling hungry and starve your brain and body of the healthy fats that are needed. Read "Eat Fat, Lose Fat" by Mary Enig for more information about this. I am not a believer in Atkins, but I do think reducing the carbohydrates in the diet substantially and choosing the RIGHT fats will help tremendously. I agree with ditching the juice and increasing fiber, otherwise my list would be different.

1. No white sugar
2. No white flour, 100% whole grains only
3. No artificial sweeteners
4. No MSG (or ingredients that contain MSG)
5. Eat the right fats (See the above book)
6. Lots of vegetables and some fruits
7. Make it yourself, no processed foods
