Weight in pounds
Green light foods are the ones that aid most in healthy weight loss
Yellow light foods are those you can eat occasionally
Red light foods are those you want to avoid in order to lose weight
Foods in the green zone will be digested more slowly than yellow
and red zone foods so you will feel full for longer and will be able
to eat less calories without feeling hungry.
