When it comes to weight loss<\/a>, the word ‘overeat’ is usually off-limits. However, online fitness coach Kev is challenging that notion. In an Instagram post shared on January 13, Kev revealed a ‘cheat sheet’ of 50 high-volume, low-calorie foods<\/a> that allow dieters to stay full while maintaining a calorie deficit.

According to Kev, the primary pitfall of most diets is under-eating, which leads to metabolic slowdown and binge eating<\/a>. His solution? Volume eating. By choosing foods that are physically large but low in caloric density, you can trick your brain into feeling satisfied without overconsuming energy.<\/p>\n

\u201cTwo simple ways you can use this cheat sheet to help you lose fat,\u201d Kev explained to his Instagram followers, saying, \u201cEat smarter by adding more volume to your meals, which will keep you fuller for longer, or use my template: 200g protein, 200g veggies, 100g carbs, and 150g fruits.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kev\u2019s list of ’50 foods you can literally overeat without getting fat’ focuses on foods that typically contain fewer than 120 calories per 100g, making it nearly impossible to ‘accidentally’ gain weight while eating them in their whole form.<\/p>\n
