Now that it's May it's time to start thinking of summer and bathing suits. It's also the time to start eating right to fit into last year's shorts and bathing suits.A few dietary changes can be a big help.
What to eat for a healthier diet? Protein and greens. fire up the grill for some grilled chicken and turkey breast. These are perfect for a simple dinner complete with any kind of veggie and maybe a scoop of herbed rice.Salmon is another great protein that can make up a light supper or even lunch. Grill with a sprinkle of lemon along with sea salt and freshly ground pepper. You could add soy if you want or Italian seasoning for something different.mA Sunday dinner or grilled veggies is a nice change up from the usual roast and gravy. what's good about the leftover meats and veggies is that they can easily be added to mixed greens the next day for a filling lunch or even for a second dinner.If you're tired of all those barbecue then think chili. This classic can actually help in losing weight.The ingredients can help to reduce sugar and fat cravings!!It's also filled with fiber and protein which keeps you satiated and not in need of snacks or a heavy desssert afterwards.
What about those snacks and drinks? Everyone spent the winter gobbling all sorts of goodies and drink lush cappuccinos and lattes.it's time to snack light. A good change over is popcorn.it's not only low calorie but rich in much needed fiber. YOur best bet is getting a micorwave corn popper like Colonel Popper and buying the kernals. This gives you a an eight calorie bowl of snacking. Pop ir in olive oil for a better flavor and to add more nutrients. If you want it flavored then sprinkle on Kernel Seasons' flavorings. They have every flavor from kettle corn to butter and nacho cheese. Pretzels are another low calorie snack that are filling and can be taken everywhere. A bag of them in your office desk is a greatway to combat those afternoon munchies. Fruit is another good sanck. It provides the sweetness of a cookie or cupcake without all those sugar and fat. If you want something a bit more special then add a drizzle of chocolate syrup on top.
It's time to eat light. Switch over to low calorie ingredients and snacks. You'll feel better by eating lighter and less.
