  3. I believe that avoiding refined foods is the first step for you to lose weight. They could taste good, but prepared foods contain very little nutritional value, making you take more in order to have enough electricity to get with the day. Should you be constantly eating these foods, switching to whole grain products and other complex carbohydrates will help you have more strength while ingesting less. Great blog post.
