Fattening Foods to Avoid this Fall
When the weather gets chillier, you may be tempted to load up on heavy, comforting foods. Not to mention the holidays, when no one passes any judgment on the second serving of pie you dive into. If not too careful, all the hard work put into getting a summer body can go to waste, or your waist, for that matter.

Americans typically gain around one pound between Thanksgiving and New Years. Even though this number doesn't seem like that big of a deal, this weight accumulates through the years and can contribute to more weight gain in the future. It also doesn't help that every year your metabolism slows down, making weight loss a harder goal to reach.

Dr. Wayne Scott Anderson shares all the fattening foods to avoid this fall to help get you through the rest of the year without gaining a pound.
