Can you share your best weight loss foods here, and also the dreaded foods you should avoid totally?

Many people who want to release weight simply don't know what to eat or not eat. I have solved some complex weight struggles just by showing people what superfoods can do for weight loss and giving them ideas on what to eat.

What are you top 5 foods that you should AVOID no matter what?

What do you have for breakfast that guarantees that you will not have cravings during the day?

Do you know what HFCS is and why it is the worst thing ever?

More thoughts:

  Don't eat alot of 'fillers' (rice, bread, pasta), because these fill you up by expanding in your stomach, leaving you feeling empty later.  They can also be rough on the ol glycemic index.  This is often attributed to the way you feel hungry again a couple of hours after eating chinese.

Lower your serving sizes by telling yourself what a great snack or meal the remainder of the food will make at  the next meal, or for tomorrow.

This one I got from a fellow I used to work with.  He said the greatest boost to his diet regimen was volunteering in soup kitchens and homeless shelters.  You get a much different perspective on 'hungry' when you do, so he said.

In restaurants, order off of the kids menu, or have the really 'naughty' parts left off of an entree.  I am a diabetic, and telling the server this tends to smooth over most weird changes I want to make to my order.
