In addition to prescribing appetite suppressant medication and encouraging a daily routine of activity, here are some helpful nutrition guides that we believe will help you with your weight loss. Fill you up foods: Soup ? To get the most volume for the fewest Calories, choose low-fat soups with lots of veggies, such as minestrone, Manhattan clam chowder, or low-fat cream of mushroom. Oatmeal ? A heavy bowl of oatmeal provides fiber and slow-release carbohydrates that stabilize blood sugar. Choose old-fashioned oats instead of thin-cut ?instant? oats, which are more quickly digested. Grapefruit ? Eating grapefruit may boost weight loss, according to one small study from the Pennington Biomedical Research Center. A compound in grapefruit can interfere with some prescription medications, so consult with your doctor before adding it to your diet. Nonfat Milk ? The protein in milk helps keep hunger at bay, and studies show that dairy-rich diets may speed weight loss by revving the body?s natural fat-burning systems. Salad ? Most vegetables are more than 90 percent water and are low in calories. Enjoy big portions for fewer Calories by adding light and low-fat versions of dressing and cheese.
