Eating right and maintaining a healthy weight is not all that difficult. In fact, I am very sure most of you already know pretty well what is best. By cooking healthy meals from weight loss recipes and participating in sports activities, you should find losing weight not a problem at all.
Start by adopting an approach for losing weight naturally. Stick to a diet that is high in complex carbohydrates and fibre, but moderate in protein, and low in fat. I have included some free weight loss recipes for you to demonstrate how to achieve that.
Many people believe that “no fat” means “non-fattening.” However, the truth is, you are often getting just as many calories from the no-fat version, and those calories may not coming from fat. So, do not be misled and start to believe that you can eat any amount of the foods that are advertised as “fat-free”. Instead, eat healthy food prepared using the weight loss recipes.
The best way to respond to hunger is with healthful snacks such as a slice of whole-grain toasted bread. Instead of skipping meals, eat snacks. Just remember that if you want to lose weight naturally, you have to keep track of every food you eat and of every activity that you do. Learn to cook healthy and delicious from weight loss recipes. That is also one way to motivate yourself.
Below are some simple weight loss recipes for healthy snacks:
Avocado, cheese, and flavoured tuna
Ingredients:
1 cucumber
1 small tin of flavoured tuna
1 avocado block cheese (your choice depends on your preference)
How to Prepare:
Quite easy. I just thought it up the other day and I haven’t tried it yet but it sort of gives a substitute instead of using cracker biscuits.
Slice the cucumber to reasonable thickness.
Put a slice of cheese on the cucumber. Then some avocado then finally some flavoured tuna on top. Great snack!
