12 Tips to Better Weight Loss
Diet
tips as part of your healthy lifestyle
Losing
weight is a constant battle for most of us but you can
successfully lose weight and keep it off through good daily
habits. Instead of drastic dieting, make the 12 tips below
part of your regular routine and watch the weight fall off.
-
Use
light mayonnaise or low calorie dressing when making
sandwiches
-
Use only
fat free or low fat salad dressing which will keep your
salad low in fat and calories
-
Avoid
regularly eating potato chips or French fries. If you
have the taste for chips, use the fat free or low fat
chips
-
Use
brown rice instead of white rice. Brown rice is much
higher in fiber. Other whole grain rice is also high in
fiber. Read the package label for fiber content. Three
grams or more of fiber is desirable
-
Strive
to drink a minimum of 8 cups of water a day.
-
Avoid
loading your baked potato with sour cream and butter.
Use only a half serving of each on your potato or use 1
serving of fat free / low fat sour cream.
-
Avoid
cream sauces of any kind. They are loaded with fat and
calories. Alfredo sauce, cream cheese sauce will double
the fat and calories in your meal.
-
Try to
eat three to four servings of fruit a day. Substitute
fruits for sugary desserts.
-
Avoid
fried foods when possible. The oil that foods are fried
in will double the amount of fat and substantially
increase the calorie content.
-
Exercise
regularly. A fast pace walk three to four times a week
is a good aerobic program.
-
Take a
vitamin supplement when dieting
-
If you
include the suggested low fat chips or desserts into
your diet, make sure that you divide the contents of the
bag or package by the number of servings. Put 1 serving
each into individual zip lock sandwich bag.
Example, one 7 ounce bag of WOW fat free chips has 7
servings. Put 1 serving into 7 separate zip lock bags.
Seal with zip lock then store. When diet plan calls for
a serving of chips, you pull out the sandwich bag which
will contain only 1 serving.
This method also works with desserts. This will keep you
from opening a bag of chips and eating the entire bag at
once. It also reduces the temptation to binge on chips
and deserts
