It depends on what way you want to go about it, some people like to cut out carbs while others like to reduce protein, some advise towards not many eggs etc etc....

I am a firm believer in everything in moderation so you can have lean meats and complex carbs like wholebran, rice and pasta. I am prejudice when it comes to my food and wont eat anything that is white, no white sugars no white breads or pastas not even rice. Brown has usually been bleached and has next to no nutritional value.

I suggest cooking your food, eating plenty of it but good stuff like lean meats and eggs, fruits, veges keep processed foods and sugary snacks to a minimum. Have a hunt around online and find something you think you can live with and increase your exercise.

Good luck mate.

I agree with the previous poster. Eat lean protein (chicken, fish, turkey, lean pork, lean beef, and beans), fruits and vegetables, and "good carbs," which usually means brown carbs, like brown rice, whole wheat pasta, whole wheat bread, etc. Keep sugars and fats to an absolute minimum, and try to choose healthy fats, like olive oil, avocado, and nuts, in moderation.

I don't think any meat actually burns body fat in and of itself. Lean meat will not add as much fat to your diet as fatty meat will. It is up to you to burn calories through exercise. If you burn enough of them and take in fewer calories than you are expending, you will eventually burn fat. Exercise can also increase lean muscle mass, which also helps reduce body fat.

Stay away from red meat
Eat lean meat like turkey, chicken, etc.
Fruits of any kind
Vegetables of any kind
Whole grain products
Low sodium soups

Learn to cook if you don't know how to already. Make more fresh food and stay AWAY from fast food.

Hope that helps as a start

There are certain foods that require the body to burn more energy in digestion and metabolism. In the process they help burn more calories than the actual calorie content of the food. A regular diet of such healthy foods will help in weight loss management. Fruits that are rich in Vitamin C and fiber have fat-burning properties. Other foods include chilies, protein-rich foods, apples, high fiber foods, and nuts. Green tea is also a natural thermogenic. It raises the rate of body metabolism thus facilitating faster calorie-burning. You should drink at least 5 to 6 cups of green tea. You can also find green tea in some chocolate teas, like CocoPure ( http://www.newvitality.com/shop/coco-pure.aspx ). In order to lose weight you must burn more calories than you consume. Eat healthy, count your calories, exercise regularly and youll see some results! A healthy weight loss could go up to 2 to 3 lbs a week, but not more.

Eat healthily like 100% whole wheat of whatever you can and lean beef, chicken, and turkey, and look up portion sizes of foods on line and then don't worry about it, weight loss will come naturally. my mom lost 20 pounds in 2 months like that.
