Want to lose weight as you chow down?

[COLOR="darkorchid"]Almonds[/COLOR] These yummy nuts are high in alpha-linolenic acid, which can accelerate your metabolism of fats.

[COLOR="darkorchid"]Berries[/COLOR] "These are nature's candy!" Turns out they're also your body's best friends. Strawberries, raspberries and other vitamin C–spiked fruit can supercharge your workout.

[COLOR="darkorchid"]Cinnamon[/COLOR] Adding 1/4 teaspoon to your plate may prevent an insulin spike—an uptick that tells your body to store fat.

[COLOR="darkorchid"]Mustard[/COLOR] It's heaven on a soft pretzel, but mustard may also be a weight loss wonder. Turmeric, the spice that gives mustard its color, may slow the growth of fat tissues, a study in the journal Endocrinology finds.

[COLOR="darkorchid"]Oranges[/COLOR] This citrus fruit, which contains fat-blasting compounds known as flavones, deserves to be your main squeeze.

[COLOR="darkorchid"]Soybeans[/COLOR] Reason to toss a half cup on your salad? Soybeans are rich in choline, a compound that blocks the absorption of fat and breaks down fatty deposits.

[COLOR="darkorchid"]Sweet potatoes[/COLOR] The colorful spuds' high-fiber content means they keep your insulin steadier.

[COLOR="darkorchid"]Swiss cheese[/COLOR] Calcium-rich foods reduce fat-producing enzymes and increase fat breakdown, and Swiss has more calcium than many of its cheesy peers.
