Eating Fruits & Vegetables To Lose Weight?
I got asked all of the time for people who don't know me very well, and a lot of time they just assume like hey, "You're a fitness coach, you must eat lots of vegetables and fruits and you must be super conscious that you must never eat burgers, pizza or anything" and I'm like I eat a lot of vegetables but that's not the reason I am able to stay lean.
That's exactly what this blog is about today. A lot of people think if I eat more "Healthy Foods" or eat more vegetables and fruits, I will be leaner or I will lose more weight and that is not the case. By the way, if you are interested in having a diet tea, I have tried this Red Tea Detox and I have achieved great results for losing weight!
I will explain you today exactly how you lose weight and what role vegetable should play in your nutrition regimen. You don't lose weight by eating more healthy foods. You lose weight by eating the right amount of food for your body so we're talking about calories and micronutrients. For the most part vegetables they do have a little bit of protein, a few fats but for the most part, they are carbohydrates. In general vegetables don't have a lot of calories so when you think about incorporating them with your diet, you can still eat a lot of vegetables and still not consume many calories which is great because they are very high in micronutrients which are vitamins and minerals and low in macronutrients such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
For eating vegetables you are just factoring your total daily intake but that doesn't mean you can't eat other foods or you have to eat vegetables every day but there is a very specific purpose for consuming vegetables.
The reason why you wanna eat vegetables and fruits because they are high in micronutrients. Micronutrient is either a vitamin or a mineral. For example, let's look at broccoli, broccoli is very high in a lot of micronutrients such as Vitamin K, and Vitamin K is known to help us increase our bone density, bone strength and overall heart health, also it's high in Vitamin C and Vitamin C is good for immunity.
We can look at all different types of vegetables and we all know that every vegetable has a different benefit or function. That doesn't mean that you need to consume all different types of vegetables each day. That's why it is so important to consume 70% whole foods so in a span of a week or so, you are eating a good amount of vegetables in your diet and you don't even have to worry about eating pizza and ice cream or the things that you do like because you know that you are balancing your diet with the veggies that you are consuming. 
So here's what you need to do every day. You need to take at least 5 portions of veggies per day, that doesn't mean you need to eat 5 different kinds of vegetables, you can eat a lot of broccoli or a lot of salad, but if you're just starting this diet.
So that's how I lost 17 pounds in just 14 days! Along with the Red Tea Detox that I drink for huge weight loss.
