The low-cal diet

Put simply, the low-cal diet depends on the fact that if you intend to reduce weight, then you have to consume fewer calories than you need for exercise.

What is a calorie?
A calorie is a measurement of the energy provided by food. A calorie is the the energy required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree centigrade at normal atmospheric pressure. If something has higher calories, then it will gives you more energy to use when it is converted.

Foods low in calories include fresh green beans, mushrooms, apricots, lower fat hot-dogs, and low-fat cheese.


Cruciferous vegetables, Superfoods that also help your Dieting
(includes Kale, Broccoli, Mustard greens and Radishes)
These cruciferous vegetables have large amounts of vitamins (eg.folate and vitamin c), minerals (including potassium and selenium), fibre, chlorophyll, antioxidents, isothiocyanates, and indole-3-carbinol.

Over and above their numerous great health properties, these contain isothiocyanates, which are believed by experts to reduce the risk of cancer.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
