Everybody wants to know the best way to lose weight. Whatever weight loss program we choose we want to make sure we are healthy and don’t feel completely deprived.
While we always think about taking foods away from our diet to reduce calories, there are actually some foods that we can add to our diet that can help in our weight loss efforts. Check out these five superfoods that will give you the best weight loss bang for the buck!

Oats
Oats are rich in fiber and adding a serving can help you feel full throughout the day. This can also be added to your smoothie, protein shake, or breakfast for more of a delicious and complete meal.

Grapefruit
This tangy fruit can increase fat-storage hormone, lower insulin, and is a great addition to your diet for weight loss. It's also a good source of protein, and because it's at least 90% water, it gives you the benefit of feeling full so you will not overeat!

Pears
Just one pear holds about 15% of your daily recommended amount of fiber. This refreshing fruit holds the most amount of fiber beneath the outer surface. So don’t forget to peel!

Avocados
There's no reason to be afraid of eating fats—as long as they're the right fats.
Oleic acid, a compound in avocados' healthy monounsaturated fats, may help us feel fuller. Avocado is also packed with fiber and protein. Don't overdo it - stick to a quarter or a half of an avocado.
