Coach Lost 25 Pounds After She Started Eating These 10 Foods

She ate her way to weight loss with these healthy eats.

Are you attempting to slim down and drop body fat but unsure what to eat? One expert claims that the pounds tumbled off when she added certain foods to her diet. Cherisse Kozloski is a nutrition coach and personal trainer who helps her clients lose weight and keep it off. In a new post, she unveils her list of weight loss foods – some might surprise you. "These 10 foods were a game changer during my weight loss from 205-180👇 & are staples in my menu,' she says.

​Chicken Thighs

The first food she recommends is chicken thigh – not breasts. "High in protein with healthy fats to keep you full and fuel your workouts. Yes chicken breast is higher protein but thighs to me taste better reheated," she says.

​Whole Eggs

She also started eating whole eggs. "Packed with cholesterol and nutrients to support muscle growth and hormone health. Just watch your calorie load to decide how many of natures multi vitamin you can fit in," she writes.

​Spinach

She also amped up her spinach intake. "Iron-rich to boost energy, helping you power through each day and a great low calorie filler food to help you 'feel' like you're eating a lot," she says about the essential green.

​Ground Bison

​Grass-Fed Burger

​Salmon
