Top 10 Most Surprising Diet Busters
The grocery store can be a confusing place sometimes, especially when you are trying to eat
healthy and lost weight. Unfortunately some of the so-called health-conscious food products youre
buying are not actually good for you. Many may be disguised as low-calorie, but these culprits
could put a dent in your diet goals. That low-fat muffin youre snacking on? Sadly it probably has
tons of extra calories and sugar.
Below are the top 10 most surprising diet busters:
Soups: Many soups can be packed full of calories, fat, and sodium. Read the label carefully and
look for a good balance of carbs, protein, and low-sodium. Each serving should be between 100-
180 calories. Avoid any cream-based soups as they are packed with fat.
Sugar-Free Cookies: It's not uncommon for fat-free or even sugar-free foods to have nearly the
same number of calories as the regular counterpart, and taste-wise, there's no comparison to the
real deal.
Pork: Depending on the cut, the piece of pork in front of you can be comparable to low-fat, low-
calorie chicken, or as high in fat as a hot dog. Choose carefully at the meat counter and dont be
afraid to ask the butcher for more information. Avoid adding sauces as they can make a lean cut
very unhealthy!
Coffee: Coffee drinks can be astronomically high in calories and sugar, depending on the
ingredients and size of the drink. The only coffee that wont hurt your waistline is straight, black
coffee.
Salads: Throw on a creamy dressing, cheese, croutons, and bacon bits, and your lunch is starting
to look less healthy, more calorie packed, and detrimental to your diet. Choose oil and vinegar
dressing on the side, and focus more on salads with lots of veggies and lean meats.
Breakfast Bars: Some breakfast bars look healthy and even have healthy looking pictures on the
box but look at the actual calories and extra sugars in its ingredients. Choose bars that have read-
able ingredients, low sugar content, and a good balance of carbs and protein.
2. Dried Fruits and Granola: Granola sounds great, but it's very high in fat, so you have to watch how
much you eat. Dried fruit tends to spike your blood sugar, so if you eat any, ensure you are also
eating a protein to balance.
Juice: Juice is high in calories and sugar. Drink sparingly and pair with a protein.
Low-Fat/Low-Cal Foods: Low calorie does not mean no calorie; you cannot eat unlimited amounts
of these foods. Read the nutrition facts and make sure you are accurately accounting for the
calories in your overall diet plan.
Nuts: While nuts are a great source of healthy fat, they are high in fat and calories so eat just one
serving.
As you evaluate your diet plan, consider the effects of the above diet busters. Before you pat
yourself on the back for eating soup and salad for lunch, make sure you read the label and choose
healthy!
