- Pick up a 5- or 10-pound weight at the gym and visualize that weight coming off. Holding the weight in your hands helps bring home just how heavy even 5 pounds of extra fat can be.
- If you find yourself at a weight loss plateau, up the duration of your exercise routine by five minutes.
- Pounding out your meat will help healthier portions go a longer way visually, and it's good stress relie
- Silken tofu makes a wonderful replacement for cream in some recipes.
- Save 85 calories just by swapping mustard for mayonnaise in a sandwich.
- Do your best to ensure you're not eating after 7 o'clock at night. You're more likely to make unhealthy choices and less likely to sleep as well after a late meal.
- Try a pasta-less spaghetti by mixing shredded zucchini, veggie meatballs and raw tomato sauce seasoned with a dash of zesty oregano.
- Fresh herbs can really zing up a healthy meal. Try growing some in the kitchen using a strawberry pot. Preserve the flavor by adding fresh herbs at the end of the cooking process
- Fast food is salty food. If you cut back on the salt, in a few weeks you'll be able to better taste the natural salts in food and may not crave the junk as much as you used to.
- The rub on ground turkey is that it's dry. Add some olive oil and finely blended onions to a turkey burger or turkey meatball to enhance its juiciness.
- If you're trying to lose weight with your significant other, pack each other's lunches. The lunchbox surprises will keep the both of you motivated.
- If you're eating out, make salad the appetizer. Most starters are fried and come with unhealthy dips or sauces.
Hope you enjoy these healthy weight loss tips.
