Out The Fat
Most of us are looking for easy ways to lose weight. Well, here today we
will talk about how to do just that. It might not be as hard as you think.
We all have friends who pack on the double patty burgers with two extra large
fries each day. After they swallow this, they will go on to eating a whole
bag of candy and wash it down with a half gallon of milk. Sound like someone you
know?
Throughout the day, we get thirsty, as all living creatures do. What do you turn
to most often? Sodas, we all do it. Why? Because they
are easy to get and they taste good. Who can turn down a sweet drink after
a jog in the sun? There are two reasons why we shouldn't do that.
One is because it is wasted calories. You don't get anything back from the soda.
You might get some pep from the caffeine, but that is about it. You might
get a slight sugar rush, but it won't be anything that lasts.
The second reason is, because we are slightly hungry. We aren't hungry
enough to go get something to eat, but a drink will satisfy us enough to our
next meal.
Instead of drinking sodas all day long, drink juice. More specifically,
juice with the pulp in it. I know what you're thinking. There is more of
a purpose to this than moving your bowels. We all have had a bit of a
problem in the bathroom department and have ran for the juice with the pulp in
it. Juice with the pulp in it will fill you up. Unlike sodas, there
is something actually there to curb your hunger. You will drink less because you
will get full. Try it, you will be surprised!
Always stick to wheat bread. Don't eat the white stuff. Whole wheat
products are known to stabilize blood sugar levels. This means you won't get
hungry as fast. This is an easy way to curb your hunger.
Here are some tips you can use when making sandwiches:
Avoid cheese. We put way too much cheese on everything these days. This is
a heart attack waiting to happen. There is no reason to eat this much
cheese. One of the ways you can cut down on the amount of cheese you eat is by
shredding the cheese. Use the shredded cheese instead of cheese slices.
You can cover the same amount of area, with less cheese. You can also do this on
salads as well.
Cut down on the mayo, or cut this completely out. Some people put so much
mayo on their sandwiches, they can't taste anything but the mayo.
A good suggestion is to sprinkle a little of Italian dressing on the sandwich.
Just enough so you can taste it. This will really cut down on the fat. Also, if
you make your own, you can control how much oil is in the dressing.
Cut down on bread. If you are going out to eat and the waiter drops a bread
basket on the table, push it away. Don't eat the bread. The more carbs you
can get away from the better. Cut out the silly snacks. Don't fill up on potato
chips between meals. Instead grab an apple or some veggie sticks. You will be
amazed at how good they are once you give them a chance.
Stay away from fatty cuts of meat. Don't go to the store and buy the most fatty
cuts of pork you can get. Take it home and trim the fat off of it if you have
to. There are tons of ways you can cook lean meat so that it isn't dry. That is
why most people like the fat in the meat, it adds juice. Also with spices, you
can fix the problem of not having the flavor that fat adds.
Stay away from too much dairy. No need to get full of ice cream that is full of
fat. Instead if you must consume it, go for the low fat versions. Try to get
flavors with a lot of fruit in them or add your own fruit. You won't notice the
missing fat if you add some flavor to it.
Avoid frying stuff. Learn how to bake, broil and steam your foods. You will be
surprised at how much fat frying adds to the dish. Sure it tastes better, but it
won't help your waist any.
There you have it. Those don't sound too hard do they? Losing weight will
change your life! Learn more at
