8. Bread is fattening, nuts is fattening, pasta is fattening. -whole-wheat bread/pasta is a great source of nutrients, and it -won't make you gain -weight more than any other food -with the same number of calories.

9. All calories is equal. This is some-what true, ho-wever; you'll get more nutrients from a 100calorie apple than from a 100calorie portion of -white bread. Choose healthier items if you is losing -weight, or controlling your hunger.

10. If you do not clean your plate, you're -wasting food. If you just do not feel right leaving the table until you've cleaned your plate, underestimate your hunger and put less food on your plate to begin -with, or you may overeat.
