I love how this article reminds you it’s not a diet it’s a
lifestyle change. Lots of great tips how to still eat the foods you want to and
incorporate it into a healthy lifestyle. I can’t wait to try out the turkey
burger recipe they mentioned.
A Rocking Low Fat Diet Plan for You!
Let’s face it: diets
are boring, and the phrase, “Rocking Low Fat Diet Plan“, it just doesn’t sound
right, does it…
It doesn’t take long before you’re missing your favorite
foods, wishing that you had never started this stupid plan anyway, and
wondering just how many “cheat days” are acceptable before it’s considered
giving up completely. Low fat diet plans
can feel particularly difficult to live with–especially if your favorite foods
are bacon, chocolate, and cake (not necessarily in that order). Thankfully, there are plenty of ways you can
put together a low fat diet plan that you can live with–and one that will work
for you.
Don’t eliminate your favorite foods.
Instead of denying yourself all of your favorite foods,
which often leads you to splurge when you finally get the chance to eat
whatever you want, consider looking for lower-fat alternatives. For example, if your favorite meal is a big,
greasy cheeseburger, check out a turkey burger instead. Don’t think any junk food meal is complete
without a heaping plate of fries? Try
this healthy sweet potato fries recipe, and you might just discover a new
favorite. You’ll be surprised by how
many healthy alternatives to your favorite treats there really are out
there–and before you know it, you may even discover that you like the healthy
alternatives better.
A Rocking Low Fat Diet Plan for You!
Can’t find a healthy alternative to your favorite treat, or
think that the “real” version tastes about a hundred times better? Allow yourself to continue to enjoy it both
regularly and in moderation. A small
taste of your favorite treat on a regular basis will help keep you from
splurging when you finally do get your hands on it, and knowing that you have
your favorite treat to look forward to will help keep the rest of your eating
habits under control.
Shake it up!
Consider a meal replacement shake or smoothie option that
will let you have a fantastic treat without piling on the calories. Meal replacement shakes can be made to taste
just as good as a milkshake. Need a
little help getting started with a recipe that you’ll love? Check out our collection of 101 Healthy Shake
Recipes, which will allow you to try out a new shake recipe every day if that’s
what you want.
Don’t forget your healthy fats.
When you’re on a low-fat diet, you may be wary of consuming
any fats at all. There’s a difference,
however, between “healthy fats” and “unhealthy fats,” and you should be careful
to remember the difference in your diet.
Avocados and coconut oil are two examples of healthy fats that certainly
shouldn’t disappear from your diet; just remember to use them in moderation.
Remember portion control.
Restaurant meals have gotten steadily larger, as has the
American idea of an acceptably-sized meal.
It’s no coincidence, either, that the average American waistline has
increased along with portion size. The
linked article has some great tips on keeping your portion sizes reasonable and
your waistline slimmer.
Don’t forget to exercise.
While the weight loss battle is ultimately won or lost in
the kitchen, your activity level will have a great deal to do with your final results. The Beachbody On Demand library has a
fantastic selection of 150 streaming workout videos that you can choose at your
discretion, working out at home or on the road when it’s convenient for
you.
No matter what your low fat diet plans, remember: you’re beautiful! While losing weight and getting in shape is a
great goal, it’s important to remember that your body is beautiful just as it
is, and that you are fantastic the way you are.
As you go down the road of your weight loss journey, there will be peaks
and valleys, successes and failures–and all of them are part of what makes you
who you are.
