Question 1

What is considered a low calorie food?

Accepted Answer

Foods with under 50 calories per 100g are considered low calorie. Very low calorie foods (under 20 cal per 100g) include cucumbers, lettuce, celery, and zucchini. These foods let you eat larger portions while maintaining a calorie deficit.

Question 2

What is high volume eating?

Accepted Answer

High volume eating means choosing foods with more volume but fewer calories, so you can eat larger portions without exceeding your calorie goals. Foods high in water and fiber (like vegetables and fruits) are ideal. This strategy helps manage hunger during weight loss.

Question 3

Can I lose weight eating only low calorie foods?

Accepted Answer

While low calorie foods help create a calorie deficit, you also need adequate protein, healthy fats, and nutrients. Combine low calorie vegetables with lean proteins and healthy fats for balanced nutrition and sustainable weight loss.

Question 4

What are the lowest calorie vegetables?

Accepted Answer

The lowest calorie vegetables include: cucumber (16 cal/100g), celery (14 cal), lettuce (14 cal), zucchini (17 cal), radishes (16 cal), and spinach (23 cal). These are mostly water and fiber, making them perfect for high volume eating.

Question 5

Do low calorie foods keep you full?

Accepted Answer

Low calorie foods high in fiber and water (like vegetables) do promote fullness. Combine them with protein and healthy fats for longer-lasting satiety. A big salad with chicken breast and olive oil dressing is more satisfying than salad alone.
