Trying to lose weight but don't know where to start? Some foods have higher calories than oil and can cause your weight to skyrocket if consumed regularly.

If you can muster the willpower to eliminate these six foods from your diet, your weight loss journey will be much smoother.

1. Sunflower Seeds Sunflower seeds are a popular snack, but did you know that 100 grams of sunflower seeds contain around 500 calories? That's equivalent to consuming 50 grams of oil. If you snack on a small handful of sunflower seeds daily, it adds up to an extra 3 kilograms of oil over a year.

2. Dried Tofu (Yuba) Dried tofu is a high-calorie, high-fat soybean product. Every 100 grams of dried tofu contains about 450 calories, similar to 45 grams of oil. The saturated and trans fats in dried tofu can burden your cardiovascular system, making it an unhealthy choice for those trying to lose weight.

3. Juice Many people believe that drinking juice is equivalent to eating fruit and can aid in weight loss. However, juice is not the best option for dieters. The juicing process destroys much of the fiber, and the pulp is filtered out, leaving only the juice. Juice contains a significant amount of fructose and sugar, with 100 milliliters of juice packing around 50 calories. Drinking a glass of juice daily adds up to 250 extra calories.

4. Potato Chips Potato chips are an extremely unhealthy snack. Every 100 grams of potato chips contain about 541 calories, equivalent to 54 grams of oil. Potato chips provide poor satiety and are often loaded with flavorings and additives that increase calorie intake.

5. Cake Cake is a high-sugar, high-fat food. Every 100 grams of cake contains about 350 calories. Eating a piece of cake every day adds up to an extra 3 kilograms of oil annually.

6. Chocolate Chocolate is high in calories, with 100 grams containing about 600 calories. It also has a high sugar content, which can spike blood sugar levels and lead to weight gain if consumed in excess.
