It’s all about the portion control. To lose more weight you need to learn how to portion your food rather than just guessing.

Canned fruits and vegetable have added ingredients that can cause a stall in your weight loss. Canned vegetables are high in sodium and other additives that can interact with how HCG hormone works.
