This is everything I ate today as a former ‘junk food vegan’ who lost 25+ pounds switching to a whole food, starch-based diet. These easy meals will help you lose weight without weighing or measuring your food (and you don’t have to count calories or ever go hungry!)
What Is Calorie Density and how does it help you lose weight?
Simply put, calorie density is the number of calories in a given volume of food. Certain foods have more calories packed into them – pound for pound – than others. That means each food has its own caloric density. Fresh tomatoes, for example, have just 90 calories per pound. Bagels are packed with more than 1,200 calories per pound. (Get the idea? With each bite of bagel, you’re taking in 13 times as many calories as each bite of tomato.) source: pritikin.com
