The Skinny on Losing Weight – 5 Easy Ways
Dr. Louis J. Aronne, author of The Skinny on Losing Weight gives 5 tips which are useful and easy to follow:
1. Fill up in the a.m.
Start your day off right by eating lean protein like egg whites. The protein will keep you satisfied and curb cravings for the rest of the day. As for calories in egg whites, do not worry about it, egg whites are pretty low in calories, but they are high in protein.
2. Always save dessert for last
To prevent overindulging, fill up on healthy veggies and proteins before you splurge on sweet treats.
3. Indulge, but watch portions
Do not deny yourself sweets altogether, just limit your intake to about 100 calories (or three bites).
4. Avoid starvation mode
Eating fiber-rich foods like broccoli will help you feel full longer, so you will be less likely to overeat.
5. Use the scale as your guide
Do not be afraid to step on the scale. By monitoring your weight, you can track your progress or see when you need to make changes.
