If you want to lose weight your in the right
place.
Most
of us are looking for easy ways to loose weight. Well, here today
we will talk about how to do just that. It might not be as hard
as you might 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 onto eating a whole bag of candy and
wash it down with a half gallon of milk. Sound like some of your
college buddies? Through out the day, we get thirsty. All living
creatures do. What do you turn for 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?
Well, you shouldn't be doing that. There is two
reasons why. 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 last. 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 are 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 mean 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 to much cheese on
everything these days. I won't be surprised if some day they make
a cheese covered soda can. 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.
I would suggest that you cut this completely
out. I know some guys who put so much mayo on their sandwiches, I
can't see how they eat them. I can't see how they can taste
anything but the mayo. A good suggestion to do it, 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. I love green
peppers sprinkled with a little salt. I will take these any day
over potato chips.
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?
I'm sure after you repeat them after awhile, they will get easy
to do.
