I hope you are enjoying my newest Fit Over 50 Magazine - Summer Beach Body! I wanted to share an extra nutrition tip. This one is all about eating fiber! Did you know that one of the best-kept secrets for losing weight is fiber. Fiber can be a Fat BLASTER and there are lots of ways to get more fiber into your diet. It’s so easy, it’s just changing up a few simple foods in your diet to higher-fiber content alternatives. Here are some of my favorite fat-fighting fiber tips!!!


Fiber can be a natural appetite suppressant. Foods that are high in fiber can help stop your blood sugar from spiking and allow your body to slowly digest the food. The result? If you’re not as hungry, you eat less food, and you lose weight.

There are so many great choices that are high in fiber and packed with nutrition. Here are some of my favorite fiber-packed foods:
  • Beans
  • Nuts
  • Artichokes
  • Avocado
  • Broccoli
  • Bran Flakes
  • Oatmeal
  • Lentils
  • Chia Seeds
  • Flax Seeds
  • Blackberries
  • Brussels Sprouts

Try to include several of these foods into your meals each day and see how you feel!
