1. Doughnuts: It's hard to resist the smell of a Krispy Kreme doughnut, which is why I never set foot in the store. Doughnuts are fried and full of sugar,white flour and loads of trans fat.

According to the Krispy Kreme Web site, an original glazed doughnut weighs in at 200 calories and contains few other nutrients besides fat (12 grams). The glazed, "kreme-filled" doughnut is even worse: 340 calories and 20 grams of fat. These sweet treats may satisfy your craving, but they won't satisfy your hunger as most of the calories come from fat.

"Eating a lot of refined sugar contributes to blood sugar 'swings' or extreme fluctuations," Nutritionist Susan Burke says.
