Marci suggested cutting your starch intake in half (like rice, potatoes, bread, etc.,) and doubling your veggies. One easy way is to swap pasta for veggie noodles like this recipe for maple cumin lentils over spaghetti squash. Leslie Langevin, MS, RD, CD, of Whole Health Nutrition agrees and told POPSUGAR one simple thing you need to do to jump-start your weight loss and start seeing results is to eat more veggies. Go for vibrant colours like dark leafy greens, broccoli, red cabbage, peppers, and tomatoes.
