Ways To Cut Calories And Lose Weight

Posted: Aug 31 in Healthy Living Blog tagged by admin

Having trouble sticking to your diet? Follow these tips to keep your calorie count down and lose weight more easily.

5 Ways To Cut Calories And Lose Weight

  1. Treat yourself with low-calorie indulgences: not everything that tastes good is loaded with calories. Lobster, which you may not be able to afford every night, has just 83 calories in a 3 ounce serving. Adding a tablespoon of whipped cream to your fruit instead of ice cream adds just 8 calories to your bowl.
  2. Eat six times a day: eating smaller meals more frequently can actually help you cut calories because you’re more likely to practice proper portion control if you’re not overly hungry.
  3. Go blue: the color blue seems to serve as an appetite suppressant, whereas red, yellow and orange can encourage eating. Try using blue plates and tablecloths during your meals.
  4. Eat off smaller plates: a great way to practice portion control without feeling hungry is to serve yourself less food, but use a smaller plate so it appears you’re getting plenty.
  5. Add vegetables to your recipes: putting chopped vegetables in casseroles, salads, and sauces will help fill you up without needing to add more high-calorie ingredients. Try adding more onions, peppers and tomatoes to your omelet instead of another egg.
