Food Pyramid Guide for Dieters - The Diet Food Pyramid

A good diet is based on the official Food Pyramid.  Dieters who use the Food Pyramid as a base for weight loss may wonder how many servings they should eat from the Food Pyramid in order to lose weight while retaining an optimum level of health.  Questions might include:

 

Should I reduce the Food Group servings so that they go below the recommended allowance to generate weight loss?

 

Should I cut fat completely from my Diet Food Pyramid in order to reduce calories for weight loss?

 

What are my best food choices from each Food Group?  How can I get the best Diet Bang for my Diet Buck?

 

Let's begin by examining the current daily serving recommendations for the Food Pyramid:

How many servings for each Food Group in the Food Pyramid

Milk, Yogurt & Cheese Food Group: 2-3 Servings

Vegetable Food Group: 3-5 Servings

Meat, Poultry, Fish, Dry Beans, Eggs & Nuts Group: 2-3 Servings

Fruit Group: 2 - 4 Servings

Bread, Cereal, Rice & Pasta Group: 6-11 Servings

Fats, Oils & Sweets - Use Sparingly
