The One Dietitian-Approved Way To Lose 5 Lbs FAST

While exercise is important for weight loss, what you choose to eat everyday is also extremely essential for losing belly fat as well. It turns out, eating the right amount of vegetables can help aid weight loss. It really is that easy!

“The one thing all diets have in common is veggies, and if you want to lose weight, you should start eating more of them,” Cassetty says.

Vegetables have a ton of amazing health benefits and can also be incorporated into diets in a variety of ways so that you really never get bored of them either. 

“I’ve converted a lot of veggie haters to veggie eaters with a few simple strategies, starting with making veggies more fun! For example, try riced cauliflower to replace some (or all) of the grains with your favorite stir-fry,” Cassetty suggests. “Or consider blending spaghetti or linguini with spiralized veggie noodles. (You can buy the pre-spiralized noodles in many supermarkets if you don’t want to invest in the gadget.) Or try adding a fistful of greens to smoothies, prepared soups and pasta sauce.” 

According to Healthline, some vegetables are more weight-loss-friendly than others. For example, leafy greens like kale and spinach are low in calories and high in fiber so they’ll keep you feeling satisfied and full. Other vegetables rich in fiber include fellow green veggies like broccoli and brussels sprouts. The options are truly endless--have fun with it!
