We need energy at the start of the day and so carefully selected whole grain or bran cereals low in sugar and served with reduced fat milk are important foods to include in our breakfast menu. A slice of whole grain bread is low in calories and can be included with a low calorie margarine and fruit spread or jam as part of a calories loss menu.
Instant brown rice is very healthy, easy and fast to make so throw some frozen vegetables and brown rice into a steamer, cook some chicken breasts and twenty minutes later you have a meal. Whole wheat pitas can be used with a meal, with a snack, and if you stuff some hummus and salad into one, call it lunch. Bake one and cut it into pieces for some crunchy chips as they have less than 200 calories and endless possibilities.
Oatmeal is a great filling food for breakfast and has lots of fiber that will help you feel full throughout the day. At lunch or dinner, eat pasta sparingly, and look for whole grain pasta, but do keep some around for a quick meal. Remember to eat more of an accompanying salad than pasta when you want the benefits of calories loss.
Rice cakes are very low in calories and are an ideal diet food. They can be 'dressed up' with low calorie spreads and eaten as a snack or as part of a light lunch. Another snack to increase your calories loss is whole grain crackers with cheese, in the place of high calorie potato chips.
Some dairy products are packaged in ways that make them excellent food for dieters! 2% milk, low calorie margarine, low calorie cheese and yogurt are core foods to include in a calories loss menu so make sure that you stock up on as much of this as your refrigerator can hold.

Yogurts are fabulous for those following a low calorie diet. Individually portioned and low in calories, they are sweet, great sources of calcium and the perfect size for a snack usually containing less than 200 calories. When the grocery store has a sale on yogurt, stock up.
