2. Don't Starve Yourself
There’s nothing half as enjoyable as nibbling on something in between channels right?
So don’t worry, this topic doesn’t deny you the right to gobble up! There’s a catch though
(hmmm, were you almost jumping for joy?). We have to substitute your chips and dips for
something healthier yet just as tasty.
Here are some fitness friendly suggestions:
• Wrap up something raw. Now if the only vegetable you are acquainted with is potato
(and only when it’s fried), then it's time to refresh your memory and your diet. Chop up
some carrots, celery, tomatoes, cucumber, even peppers! To make it crunchier, make
sure you store it in the refrigerator for a few hours first. If you choose fresh vegetables
you will hardly miss the dips and dressings.
• Please skip the Pepsi…or any other cola for that matter. Drinks like these contain
caffeine, a substance that retains water in your body, making you feel bloated most
of the time. Instead opt for water. That’s right, plain old water is the key to weight
management. However, if you’re not a fan of plain iced water you can add a hint of
lemon or honey to make the taste more appealing.
• Are you screaming for sweets? You’d better put those candy bars down, or that thick
slice of chocolate cake. Now I know it sounds so great but don’t let a moment of sinful
sweetness on your lips lead to a lifetime of lard on your hips. And no, watching TV isn’t
a “special occasion” to excuse yourself. To satisfy that sweet tooth of yours why not
3. binge on fruits instead? A big plate of fresh pineapple, strawberries, mangoes,
anything in season.
• Not too eager about that idea? How about a fruit shake using non-fat milk?
If you don’t like it fresh you can also try dried fruit like raisins or dried mangoes.
Fruits are rich in fiber which helps get rid of waste from the body. In no time at all,
this simple switch will do wonders for your waistline.
• Include some spice in your snacks. If you feel like having tacos or tortilla chips, get
some calories burning by adding some red pepper to your taco dip. Cayenne pepper
has thermogenic properties that will help improve your body’s metabolism.
Isn’t this a tasty way to being “hot”?
