So, anybody that has talked to me before about what you are eating and how your food is making you feel than you know i love talking nutrition. And after scrutinizing what the girls have been eating ever since they started on solids its a huuuuuuge unknown area for alot of people!! Even things we think are healthy aren't always going to help us!
Here are some foods that you should limit! (note that i said limit, not avoid)
Fruits- bananas, grapes and mangos are the highest sugar fruits so I would recommend that you LIMIT them. I would suggest pears, apples, and any berries. A serving is 1 cupped handful. 
Veggies- raw or steamed. 2 cupped handfuls eaten 4 times per day. Examples, cucumbers, tomatoes, leafy greens, broccoli, spinach, asparagus, green beans, sprouts, celery.
Carbs- 1 handful per day of quinoa, brown rice oatmeal or cream of wheat and or a hand sized sweet potato.
Lean protein- stick to chicken, tuna, egg whites, turkey, or non oily fish like salmon and tilapia.
Beverages- water!!! Unsweetened herbal teas!
So if you are really trying to shed weight stay away from dairy products, juice, bread, salad dressings (make your own with balsamic vinegar and evoo), spreads and high sodium foods! NO TURKEY BACON for my bacon lovers and no sliced cheese!
I promise if you even start making small tweaks with this plan you will see a drastic change!!! What food do you try and CONVINCE yourself is healthy to eat UNLIMITED amounts of that you KNOW you need to CUT BACK ON??? (Mine is definitely grapes! And peanut butter, i love peanut butter. lol)
