Weight Loss Tip #581 If your lunch is scheduled for one hour, and if your job is sedentary, take a 10 minute walk to revitalize. Walking is the best activity in the universe for weight loss. Weight Loss Tip #582 Replace salty, fatty chips with pretzels. And they come in so many varieties these days. Our pick is honey mustard which has a unique twang. Unlike most chips, pretzels are baked, thus decreasing calories right off the bat. Weight Loss Tip #583 Lean on lean meats. Most of the calories from meat stems from the fat, so always trim away as much visible fat as possible. When dipping steak, keep in mind that most steak sauces tend to be very high in calories. Reach for the catsup - which is low in calories....yet, take note....it's high in sodium. Weight Loss Tip #584 Look for heart-healthy selections on restaurant menus when dining out. Heart-healthy selections generally contain far less calories than standard menu items. Many restaurants have chefs that may skinny-up the regular selections on the menu - so always ask if you see something that you like. Weight Loss Tip #585 Plan meals ahead and empty into packages so you can grab and go rather than ending up at a fast food house. Preparing in advance allows the dieter more time to enjoy their meal which is an important element in achieving Diet Success. Weight Loss Tip #586 Keep a supply of fresh veggies on hand for snack-attacks. Fat free yogurt makes an excellent dip, as does low fat cottage cheese. And don't obliterate cheese completely from your diet menu. Some brands and versions of nacho cheese sauce contain about 50 calories per serving and make a nice treat for vegetable dippers. Keep in mind that the closer your snack is to Mother Nature, the more healthy it will be! Weight Loss Tip #587 Enjoying our food aids in digestion, lessons stress and makes eating a fulfilling experience. Individuals who take time out to enjoy meal time generally visit Mr. Snacks soon after meal time. Cutting Mr. Snacks from your daily diet will indeed help move you towards weight loss at a faster pace. Weight Loss Tip #588 Enjoy a healthy Chinese or Japanese-style dinner featuring diet-wise stirfry, steamed rice, assorted sauces, and a bowl of fortune cookies. Plan to eat without shoes on and on the floor. Dust off your chopsticks while you're at it. Weight Loss Tip #589 See if your partner will exercise with you. Consider joining a gym, or a hiking club. Couples usually experience getter weight loss results than solo dieters. Support is of course, a big key to weight loss success. Weight Loss Tip #590 If you are on a weight loss program with your partner and they 'fudge the diet plan' don't be too harsh. You may need their sympathy as you both travel down the primrose path to weight loss success.
