One of the biggest nutrition challenges facing people who are trying to achieve and maintain a healthy weight is eating too many sugary fatty foods and drinks, such as processed snack foods, sweets and sugary drinks. You can face this challenge head on by cutting back on your consumption of these foods.
Weight Loss Tip: Think Moderation!
Eating smarter does not mean you have to immediately go sugar-free and fat-free. You can make a big difference in your calorie intake with some simple substitutions; and by eating and drinking smaller portions. The key is to moderate, not eliminate.
Here are 5 easy ways to cut out about 100 calories without much effort.
• Choose baked chips instead of fried chips.
• Swap one cup of frozen yogurt for one cup of regular ice cream.
• Eat half a piece of cake or pie instead of a full serving.
• Drink “jeltzer” – fruit juice cut with seltzer.
• Eat a cup of fruit instead of candy.
