If you’re trying to lose weight, you might be thinking about restricting certain foods from your diet. But you might actually need to start adding foods to your diet to achieve the results you want.
We give you the low down on the best foods to aid your weight loss, not hinder it.
1. Wild salmon
Trying to lose weight and not having salmon in your diet is foolish to say the least. Wild salmon has 20g worth of protein and is also packed with omega-3 fatty acids which are essential for your health and help burn fat.
2. Eggs
Don’t be too concerned about eggs’ supposedly high cholesterol levels because they shouldn’t affect you unless your cholesterol is already through the roof. And you certainly don’t want to miss out on all the nutrients the yolk has to offer and all the protein you’ll get from the whites.

3. Flax seeds
Flax seeds might not be the number-one item on your shopping list, but if you’re looking for a great source of fiber, protein and omega-3 for fat loss then grind this down and add it to any shake.
4. Broccoli
The great thing about broccoli is that it will fill you up while containing very few calories. Plus it contains potassium which will boost your lean- muscle growth.
5. Quinoa
A great way to get calorie-killing protein into your diet, especially if you’re a vegetarian, is to replace pasta or rice with streamline quinoa.
