The Whole Foods Weight Loss Eating Plan is designed to help you get back to eating basic healthy foods in a satisfying way. The plan shows you how to lower your total carbohydrate intake in a safe and satisfying way, and it explains how you can replace the refined sugars and flour products in your diet with whole, unprocessed fruits and vegetables. Not only do you discover how to eat quality lean proteins and protective fats, but your appetite needs will be met naturally, and you won’t be hungry. Your body will thrive on the nutrients you’re feeding it rather than wilting on empty calories. You’ll naturally start to lose your surplus fat and your health and energy will soar.

The Whole Foods Weight Loss Eating Plan consists of the following:

 Vegetables and whole fruits

 Lean protein, fish, and poultry

 Low-fat cheese, low-fat milk (or dairy alternatives), and yogurt

 Moderate amounts of fat, especially monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats such as avocados, olives, olive oil, peanut oil, canola oil, flaxseed oil, and sesame seeds; and nuts and seeds

 Whole grains, and starchy vegetables such as legumes and corn

Sugar, white flour, and other refined grains are limited on the Whole Foods Weight Loss Eating Plan, as are fried foods, processed snack foods and processed meats. The following sections discuss the three categories on the plan.
