    There are two things women want in life: to eat and to lose weight. It may sound like you need to choose one or the other, but where there’s a will, there’s a way. And in this case, the trick is eating foods that actually burn more calories than they contain. They’re called ‘negative calorie’ foods. Now, we’re not saying to change your entire diet so you’re only eating these foods, but including some of them in your meals or snacks can’t hurt!



    Did you know about negative calorie foods? Do you eat any of the above foods on a regular basis?

    I have never really eaten grapefruit (my mum's can't have it because of her medication) and so we generally don't buy it. I cannot stand celery (only a small amount in a cooked meal, papaya has a weird sweet taste that I do not like and I cannot stomach chilli. I like all of the others :)

    I love all these! I've started eating cucumbers for lunch because I've realised that they're really hydrating

    Love all of these except grapefruit ...but if it really metabolises fat well I may have to reconsider that!

    I do like most of these, I just wish I didn’t like the fattening foods as well!

    Trying to eat more cauliflower too, you can even make rice out of it niow

    Emma Ocean 19 Jul 2017 1:49 PM

    This is a great article! Keep up the good work. I definitely will be trying to eat more of these foods!'

    I think this is one of my favourite articles on BH to date. I didn't know there were negative calorie foods- yay! I love eating apples. If you slice them up when you're really hungry it feels like you're having way more and it makes you full. Now you'll burn calories too. Done deal.

    Good thought CaitMay

    BeautifulJusty 23 May 2017 8:21 PM

    Nice. I really need to eat more cucumber and cauliflower - thanks for this

    Goddess..... 11 May 2017 4:08 AM

    I don't like the grapefruit so that's definitely a no no I eat most of them on here but really got to start eating more of asparagus, Watermelon & celery will have to start doing that then.

    A very informative article. I eat all of the mentioned food except for grapefruit.

    Sootyhere 18 Jun 2018 1:00 PM

    I don't like grapefruit either but that's good because I can't eat it with the medication I'm on.

    makeupcat 26 Apr 2017 8:45 PM

    Love love love this article. Super informative and helpful. Adding some of these to the shopping list!

    I eat and adore all but chilies. They can not be eaten as a meal, so I do not. Regular peppers I do love though
