  1. Avocados:

    Avocados, also called the ‘butter fruit’ are packed with potassium and mono-unsaturated fats apart from calories. Along with fibre, these fats increase satiety and decease cravings throughout the day. Include avocados in the breakfast or during the day to stave off hunger pangs.
  2. Egg yolks:

    This might be surprising but egg yolks are the real heroes that will help you lose weight. A quick bread and omelette make for an amazing breakfast keeping us fuller for longer. But Egg yolks contain vitamin A, B-vitamins, K2 and choline which help support metabolic functions and thyroid health. A healthy metabolism and thyroid function are crucial for weight loss.
  3. Full fat dairy:

    People who consume high-fat dairy have lower rates of obesity than those who consume low fat dairy, but it may depend on various factors. Milk contains a fatty acid called conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which is believed to induce weight loss. Moreover, extra fat from full fat dairy foods like full fat Greek yogurt increases satiety.
  4. Nuts:

    A handful of nuts have more than just calories. They are loaded with protein, fibre and mono- and poly- unsaturated fats, which work to make you feel satisfied and fuller longer.
