The worst weight loss foods

When you are on a weight loss program there are a few foods that are so bad for your progress it will make you sick. And what’s worse, they aren’t the foods you first thought!

What are the worst foods to eat while on a weight loss program?

Weight loss programs are tricky beasts to follow. When you want to lose a bit of fat you are usually a little bit emotional, a little bit vulnerable and perhaps a bit cranky. All of these things make the bad foods seem more appealing and after a while you say to yourself: “forget the weight loss, I’m eating some chips!”.

NORMALLY I would tell you that the worst foods for weight loss are:

• foods that are high in carbs like pasta, rice, breads, etc.
• foods that are high in saturated fats like hot chips;
• foods that are high in refined sugar like candy and soda

However, I think I have come across a type of food that is even worse for your waist. It is even MORE dangerous for weight gain than those that I listed above.

The absolute worst foods for weight loss are the one’s you either don’t know are bad for you or the one’s that become addictive and lead you back down the fat path.

What I am talking about started for me with a little drink called the iced coffee. I love them. It is basically a coffee flavored milk and it is very high in sugar, very high in fat, very high in salt and as it has coffee in it it is also very addictive. Imagine, coffee, sugar, fat, salt all on one glorious product! However, I started drinking too many of them and then when I saw that I didn’t put weight on right away I started drinking more and more and… you get the idea.

The foods that you eat when you think they are good for you but they really aren’t are usually advertised as low fat. These products are almost always high in calories and high in refined sugar and preservatives. They aren’t a good choice.

Conclusion
Make sure you know what you are eating and make sure you think about the effects it will have on your body and mind down the track. If you think a little bit now and then won’t hurt you then you better make sure you know what’s in it and that you are certain you can keep it at just a little bit and not a lot.
