A timeless go-to for dieters and health lovers alike, yogurt is a common staple on every health advocate's shopping list. Could you be wasting calories with added sugar? Absolutely! If you are choosing flavored yogurt, there is on average 3-6 teaspoons of sugar that can kill your waistline. Chose the unsweetened version to save your waist and better your health. When you put on your skinny jeans you will be so glad you made this choice!
2. Cereal

As you watch the commercials of slim women representing cereal as a way to slim down, you feel like this should be in your diet. But think again because on average, cereal is 20-37 grams of sugar in one serving. Believe it or not, this is actually the amount that should be consumed in an entire day! So swap out the cereal for steel cut outs to join the skinny girls in their healthier choices!

Slim girls are sure to never drink all their calories by filling up on juice. Why? A standard glass of grape juice contains 58 g of sugar, apple juice contains 39 g, and pear juice 37 g. You would be better off having the whole fruit than drinking the high sugar content juice that will have you craving more food after.
4. Ketchup

Sugar is where you would least expect it - in your ketchup. Slathering ketchup on your turkey burger can be sabotaging your efforts to make healthy choices. Ketchup has between 20-30 grams of sugar in 100 grams. And although you are probably not drowning your meal in ketchup, you should be aware of the sugar content so you make healthy choices.
5. Nutella

Sure Nutella can be just what you crave to sweeten your day but your waist line will not thank you if you choose this treat. Nutella has a whopping 21 grams of sugar in 2 tablespoons. Yikes! This is definitely not a staple on skinny girls eating plan for this reason!

Drinking a can of soda does anything but quench your thirst. In fact after drinking soda you may find yourself feeling hungry and thirsty.
