Nutrient-Rich, Low-Calorie Food

Weight Loss

Are you thinking about losing weight? Unfortunately, you can’t out-train a bad diet. Exercise and a healthy diet go hand in hand. Programs like Noom® incorporate the psychology of eating to increase awareness of eating triggers and habits. Logging your meals, water intake, steps, and workouts can help you make more mindful choices.

One impactful shift is moving away from high-calorie, low-nutrient foods. These foods aren’t filling and often require more calories to feel satisfied. In contrast, foods that are rich in water tend to be packed with nutrients and naturally lower in calories. They help you feel full faster and support hydration, which can accelerate weight loss. A diet rich in nutrients will always outperform one focused solely on cutting calories.

So, what foods are both water- and phytonutrient-rich?
Mostly fruits and vegetables. Adding more lettuce, watermelon, apples, melons, berries, carrots, and broccoli to your meals adds hydration and volume without the calorie load. Plus, eating a colorful variety ensures you get a broad spectrum of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and essential nutrients your body craves.
