Grocery Store Tour
This week I go to Albertsons in Chino Hills to take a tour of what to purchase and what not to purchase at the grocery store in order to maintain fat loss and a healthy diet. I explain in the video what to look for in products, what to stay clear of, and I also point out alternatives to your favorite foods. Below the video I have also provided a grocery store shopping list to help you next time you take a trip to the store. There are also some charts and resources that you may find helpful below as well!

Nice job on the video and very informative. During your tour of the dairy section, you mention that butter has a lot of transfats…. Correct me if I’m wrong, but regular butter has no transfats, only the processed margarines have transfats.
Sam Bakthiar @ 11:07 am
Chris,
You are 100% correct. Butter has Saturated fats and Margarine has Trans-fats. As you know both are not good for you but if I had to pick one over the other then I would pick Saturated fats over the Trans-fats.
At least Saturated fat is from a natural source. Trans-fats are made artificially.

Sam – I have been trying to get healthy and lose weight for 20 years, but I always failed or quit. I have done every diet there is and was considering surgery until I found Fitness Concepts. Thank you so much for the daily emails and your continued effort to keep me informed about how to be successful. Knowledge is power and now that you have given it to me I know I will be successful this time. Thank you for your support in my journey to living a healthy life.
