The point to lose weight is burning more calorie than you intaking, or intaking less calorie than you can burn.
So the most important thing is just eating foods of less calorie.
Do you know konjac noodles, which is also called shirataki noodles, konjac pasta? It's made from the root extract of a vegetable called Konjac.
The Konjac plant is from China, which contains the "Glucomannan" fibers that have the ability to absorb liquids up to 200 times their size. For more than 2000 years, the inhabitants of the Far East have used the plant as an important part of their menu. The Chinese call those noodles MOYU or JURUO, while the Japanese call it KONIAKO or SHIRATKI.
Regular pasta, in general, contains 300-500 calories per serving along with flour, gluten, and water with empty carbs, whereas in the same serving of SkinnyPasta, there is only 5 calories, no fat, no gluten, no sugar, no soy, no carbs, low protein and no cholesterol. Big difference!
