Hey, I didn't believe it. I always thought dieting was all about skipping meals, not eating most of the time, fasting and depriving myself. This new concept I had been hearing about of eating more to lose weight was intriguing to say the least. Although I could always lose weight by starving myself, I would inevitably give up and gain all the weight back and then some. So I started some serious research about this eating more thing! I searched for fat burning foods, fat flushing foods and negative calorie foods. And, you know what? It turned out to be true that there are many, many foods that are so low in calories and/or high in fiber, that the more you eat of these foods, the more weight you could lose. In theory, at least.

So I decided to use myself as a guinea pig to see what foods I could eat all I wanted and still lose weight. At the time, my sister and I were developing The 100 Calorie Diet and The 100 Calorie Food Counter and I thought it would be so great if we could have a long list of FREE foods for The 100 Calorie Diet. After about six months, I had my FREE foods list and I thought it would be cool to share it with the world! I want to help all those people out there who struggle with their weight every single day, 365 days a year. I've been there and know how difficult it can be to lose weight and keep it off if you don't have the right tools. The concept behind The 100 Calorie Diet is to stop dieting and start losing weight today! And, ya know what, it works! I never thought it was possible to eat what I wanted and still lose weight. The 100 Calorie Diet is really a dream come true!

Chapter 7 of The 100 Calorie Diet reveals SO many ways you can use these FREE foods to eat more and weigh less. And even better, you will find some absolutely delicious recipes in The 100 Calorie Cookbook using foods from my list. Not possible? Yes, it's possible! Check out my recipe for Bodacious Beef Stew after the FREE foods list. Guaranteed delectable and zero net calories!

Susie Says:

This Tasty Beef Stew Recipe is absolutely delicious! The rutabagas absorb the flavor of the stew and you really think you're eating potatoes! It reminds me of those wonderful days of childhood when I would open the front door of our house after a long day at school and oh, how I loved that luscious smell of stew cooking on the stove! I knew dinner was going to be great.
