Workout and lose weight on wheels- gain weight on diet food

Foods labels that claim to be "Low calorie" "reduced fat" "low cholesterol" are misleading, Here's why- If their is a decrease in a fatty ingredient there is an increase in another- such as sugar. Since sugar has 9 calories per gram you are actually eating something that is no lower in calories overall. If the item actually is lower in calories, you are more likely to eat a larger amount. Again you are consuming the same amount of calories. French fries have no cholesterol but have a very high fat content. Other examples are carob or yogurt instead of chocolate. However, there are guidelines that must be followed in order to make the claims. "Reduced" means it contains at least 25% less fat than regular food. "fat-free" means less than .05 grams a serving and calories free means less than 5 grams a serving. If you stick to fresh fruits and vegetable then you'll never go wrong.
