Excuse me to start off this article with this down to earth question. Are you
ready and able to finally get that ‘FAT’ monkey off your back? And those unwanted inches off your waist! But trust me, you should know what to should do the moment you ‘click’ off this screen. What you do or don’t do afterwards is entirely up to you. Right?
Enough of talking. Let’s get started.
Powerful Tip No. 1. Choose foods that are as fresh and unprocessed as possible.
What I am about to tell you is more than a figment of my imagination. In reality, the more processed a food is, the fewer nutrients it contains and the more dramatic its effect on your blood sugar levels. A canned pear has a lot less flavor, fiber, and nutrients than a fresh one, and whole grains are far more nutritious (and tasty) than refined, bleached, or even enriched flours.
Next up!
Powerful Tip No. 2. Avoid starchy, flour-based foods.
Consider this scenario! Despite the current fad touting pasta, breads, and other flour-based products, these foods are anything but nonfattening when consumed by people with control problems. More of my clients have gained weight because of starch than because of fat. There is really no comparison between a supposedly low-fat, low-calorie restaurant entree such as spaghetti with marinara sauce and an entree of grilled sole .
Besides being lower in fat and calories, fish has 50 percent more protein and more than twice the calcium of the pasta dish, as well as being an excellent source of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Perhaps most important, the 55 grams of protein in the sole are far more thermogenic than the 220 grams of carbohydrate in the pasta, so you will bum more of the calories you take in. And unlike pasta -which is likely to set off a cycle of craving in carbohydrate-sensitive people-the fish meal leaves you feeling satisfied for a much longer period of time.
What you are about to read next is no brainer. Continue reading you will agree with. OK?
Powerful Tip No. 3. Avoid foods that contain more than 25 percent of their calories in fat.
As you can see, there should be careful and prudence on food you allow yourself when shopping in the supermarket. Lucky for you the new food labels very conveniently list the percentage of calories from fat right at the top, so- it’s easy to tell. Remember, fat builds fat, so the more you eat, the more your body will tuck away into your fat cells. Seafood, fresh vegetables, whole grains, and poultry can give you the the healthy fats your body needs. Simple enough?
Any questions so far. If ‘NO’ then let’s scroll down to the next powerful tip.
Powerful Tip 4. Avoid foods that are served 1n unlimited quantities.
You know what? Big bowls of mashed potatoes, rice, and pastas and the kinds of heaping servings seen more and more at family style restaurants tend to bring out the Finisher in the best of us. Such abundant visions of food are a potent trigger, and the more we see the more we feel compelled to eat. It’s rare to go to “a restaurant and not feel satisfied with the size of a single serving. But when seconds and thirds are available many people feel that a single serving is completely inadequate and automatically go back for refills.
Even when a food is a fairly good nutritional investment (such as brown rice or whole grain pasta), it is sometimes wise to pass in the interest of maintaining control. Avoid,-serving such foods at home, and when you do, monitor the amount you serve yourself to prevent losses of control.
The last but certainly not the least would shock you out of your pants or for ladies your skirts.
Powerful Tip No. 5. Avoid finger foods.
In truth, everyone has a bit of a Picker them, and finger foods may well be the universal trigger When in doubt, steer clear of foods that don’t require a plate and some utensils. This rule applies to healthy finger foods too, especially finger fruits (like grapes or cherries or cut-up fruits. Limit your consumption of finger foods to specific, infrequent occurrences, such as popcorn at the movies.
And that’s no all! Many of my clients enjoy air-popped popcorn at the movies but never have it at home because it could easily become a daily habit. They know that if they have it at home they could easily fall back. into a behavior of continual noshing and end up eating far more than just popcorn. Get my picture?
If you have not learned anything so far allow me to repeat the salient points of this article for you. It’s so vital that I will not apologize to repeat this paragraph again. If I have to. Here goes. You would remember that you must choose only foods that are as fresh and unprocessed. You also do not forget to avoid starchy, flour-based foods.
Moreover, you also must detest foods that contain more than 25 percent of their calories in fat. Further more, you must strengthened your determination to refuse foods that are served in unlimited quantities. And of course do away with finger foods at all cost. Simple enough for you?
OK, you have made it so far. And may be feeling overwhelmed by all you have read. Don’t feel that you have to absorb and do everything today. Honestly, the only thing you need to decide now is the your ideal weight and the method you are going to use to make it possible.
Thank you. Hope to see you again. Bye
