20.Enjoy Your Food
Special orders can help you control your portion sizes.
- Share an entree.
- You can order an appetizer to go with your meal.
- Select the appropriate plate for your child.
- Put half of the meal into a doggie-bag before it is brought to the dining table.
For the perfect balance, add extra salad to a small entree. Fill half of the plate with vegetables.
21.Red Sauce is the best!
Instead of Alfredo, choose marinara for your pasta. Tomato-based sauces are generally lower in calories and fat than cream-based ones. But remember, portion size still counts. One serving of pasta is approximately the size of tennis ball or one cup.
22.Get Meatless more Often
A slimming habit is to eat vegetarianmeals as often as possible. Vegetarians are generally lighter than meat eaters. There are many reasons why this is the case, but legumes could play a major role. Fiber is found in many tasty foods such as lentil soup, bean burgers and other legume-based dishes. The average American only consumes half of the fiber they need, which means that you will feel fuller with fewer calories.
23.Burn 100 Calories More
Burning an additional 100 calories per day can help you lose 10 pounds within a year. Try these activities:
- Walking 1 mile takes about 20 minutes.
- For 20 minutes, pull weeds and plant flowers.
- Cut the grass for 20 minutes.
- Cleaning the house in 30 minutes.
- Jog for 10 minutes.
24.Celebrate the Holidays
Pat yourself on the back when you have successfully kicked your soda habit, or simply survived the day without eating too much. You are on your way to a healthy lifestyle that will help you lose weight without a complicated or crazy diet plan. You can indulge in small amounts of cheesecake, a pedicure or new clothes.
