All raw vegetables—Not only are vegetables naturally low…
““All raw vegetables—Not only are vegetables naturally low in calories, but when you eat them raw, more of the calories stay bound to the fiber and pass through your body without absorption. Even raw carrots are a weight-loss-friendly food. All green vegetables—If they are the color green, go for it. Green vegetables are not just low in caloric density, they are super high in micronutrient density too. Nonstarchy, nongreen cooked vegetables—Include tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, cauliflower, eggplant, and red peppers in your diet.””
