This is part two of the two part series on "Knowing what to eat". We will continue our discussion on what you should eat in order to control your weight gain. These are some well known and very effective weight loss tips.
Take a multivitamin.
This will not help you lose weight fast, but if you are eating a lot less than usual, you probably need the nutritional boost.
Substitute with Soy.
Soy is a healthy food that can shave inches off your waist. Plaint soy milk - unlike the flavoured and highly sweetened varieties has fewer calories than whole milk. Soy bugers and hot dogs have fewer calories than meat.
Drink diet soda.
If you have to drink and can not resist, drink diet soda. They ar ebetter than the sugary soft drinks that pack over 100 calories of pure sugar in each serving. Drink a six pack of regular soda and you are adding close to 1000 calories to your diet. If you dislike diet soda, try propel fitness water from gatorade. It is made with sucralose , a sweetener that is related to sugar but has zero calories. There is a little sugar to give it taste, along with berry and lemon flavoring. At 10 calories per 8-ounce glass, it's terrific.
Follow the half and half rule.
If you must drink juice, juice cocktail or sweetened tea, pour half a glass of juice ot tea and then dilute it with half glass of water. You will cut the calories in half while continuing to enjoy the flavor.
Use artificial sweetener instead of sugar.
Every teaspoon of sugar you put in your coffee or tea has 16 calories. Two teaspoons has 32. Have two cups of coffess and that's 64 calories. That's 500 calories a week. Thats a pound in 7 weeks. Do the math.
Eat lean American food.
Salads are great if you skip the bacon and use fat-free dressings in moderation. Grilled fish, poultry or lean meats and vegetables have more flavor and fewer calories.
Eat lean indian food.
Tandoori chicken, curries and chutneys are good choice. Go easy on rice.
Eat lean italian food.
Fish, ziti with tomato sauce, spagheti with a little oil, garlic and broccoli, minestrone soup or pizza with more vegetables and less cheese can be delightful and low-cal.
Eat lean mexican food.
Pass on the refried beans, sour cream, cheese and guacaomole. Enjoy the salsa, beans and chicken tostadas.
Eat lean Asian food.
Say no to deep-fried or breaded foods. Sushi, tofum steamed entrees and soups are healthy and low in fat.
Eat lean Middle Eastern Food.
Stuffed grape leaves, lamb, eggplant and lentils are tasty, slimming selections.
Smoothies are slimming.
Make a smoothie in a blender for breakfast or lunch and then have a regular dinner. Smoothies are low-cal and very satisfying. But your smoothies must also be packed with nutrition and fiber. Try fat-free yogurt, soy milk, blueberries, cherries, bananas or other fruit.
Take a shortcut.
If you are too lazy to chop vegetables for snacking, buy vegetables that are pre-cut, washed and packaged. Do not take this as an excuse for reach for chips.
