If your goal is to
lose weight, focus on a few pounds at a time by adopting some simple strategies:
- One less sweetened beverage (about 150 calories each) per day can help shed approximately 16 pounds over the course of a year. Replace with water or other non-caloric beverages to stay hydrated.
- Choose your calories by the company they keep. A little less fat and a little more fruits and vegetables mixed in any dish provides the volume of food you need to satisfy your hunger without as many calories.
- Keep track of your portion sizes. Invest in smaller everyday plates and bowls. We know that food portions have been super-sized over the years but we hardly realize that our dishes have also grown to accommodate.
All of these strategies can be applied when attending parties or gatherings where there is food. Always keep these points in mind to stay on track for your weight loss.
