Vegetables are low in fat and calories, a good source of dietary fiber and provide us with extra energy. All these features help control weight effectively. Being low in calories enables us to eat lots of vegetables without consuming excess energy, the high fiber content also helps fill the stomach faster limiting the total amount of food consumed. The presence of many vitamins and other chemicals in vegetables supply the body with nutrients necessary to boost energy production within the muscle cells. This give us a natural feeling of vitality and the energy to become more active helping to burn more energy each day.
Vegetables are also low in sodium so they help reduce water gains. Sodium is present in virtually all processed foods, it causes the body to hold water within the interstitial areas of the body. It has been estimated that many average people may be holding up to 5 pounds of additional water caused from a high intake of sodium. Any reduction in sodium intake will help lose water weight and if we eat more vegetables our sodium intake naturally lowers.

Thanks for the post - I used to eat a bowl of vegetables every day but stress now results in me not doing so. There's nothing tastier than a nice bowl of mashed carrots and parsnips, or lots of peas. I adore vegetables of all sorts. The main component in my diet right now, however, is fruit.

Hey, Vegetables are really a nice source of vitamins and proteins,minerals etc. Some of the vegetables even tastes great when eaten raw and some tastes great after cooking. Vegetables contains less fat so they help in maintaining the weight as well as saves from getting over weighted.

Vegetables are also low in sodium so they help reduce water gains. Sodium is present in virtually all processed foods, it causes the body to retain water within the interstitial areas of the body. Almost all vegetables in their natural state are low in fat, low in calories and basically has no cholesterol. So you can fill up on them and lose weight too.

Well the ideas given by you are all very good. In my experience I am using some drops, I get them from prohcgdiet.com and they are really very effective. The diet plan and the time table they told me wow it is very effective for me and I lost 14 pounds in one month. Along with my exercise I am tasking these drops and they result too well. And the low weight has many benefits one of the core is the person remain active.
