15 low-calorie foods to add to your diet

How to lose weight without ever feeling hungry. - by Laura Barry
  • 26 Feb 2020

WATCH: Do you need to change your diet? Watch the video below to learn the signs of a bad diet.

As anyone who is watching their weight will tell you, the key to losing weight, and keeping it off, is calorie deficit. That is, ensuring that you are burning more calories than you eat each day.  

However, when it comes to counting calories, it’s important to remember to eat foods that are not only low-calorie, but also full of essential vitamins and minerals.

We’ve pulled together a quick reference list of low calorie fruit and vegetables, plus six suggestions for both high protein, and high iron foods, to keep you feeling full and on track to reach you weight loss goals.

However, it’s important to remember to always seek weight loss and diet guidance from a health professional before embarking on any new regimes, and ensure that you are sticking to a healthy, balanced diet.
