Empty...

Chaotic action is preferable to orderly inaction.


Empty Calorie Foods
         Most empty-calorie foods are highly processed that contain added fat and sugar. [Cakes, cookies, pies, pastries, puddings, doughnuts, fries, jams, syrups, jelly, sweetened fruit drinks, breaded fried burgers and ice cream.]  

If not used for physical activity, the extra calories are stored in the body as fat, and over time, result in weight gain and obesity.


Nutrient Dense Foods
         Fruits, vegetables, whole grains, low-fat or fat-free milk and dairy products, nuts, beans, seeds, turkey, chicken, fish and lean cuts of meats. These foods provide fewer calories but are excellent sources of nutrients. 

Gradually increase one and decrease the other until you reach a balanced level. This would lead to decrease, increase or maintain your weight depending on your Body Mass Index.
