10 Fat Smashing Health Benefits To Losing Weight

1. If you haven't eaten in 3 or 4 hours, your blood glucose levels are probably dropping and that's why you are feeling wiped out. Eating a small amount of nutrient-dense food like yogurt, will give your brain and body a boost of energy.

2. Make just a few changes to your kitchen and pantry shelves. Just a few changes can get you closer to your weight loss goals. Here's an example: If you use corn and peanut oil, replace it with olive oil

3. More changes you can make in your kitchen is changing from white bread to whole wheat bread.

4. Why not trade in those fatty cold cuts like salami and bologna and replace them with canned tuna, sliced turkey breast, lean ham and lean roast beef.

5. Why not trade your whole milk to 1% milk or low-fat soy milk. If you are using 2% milk transition down to 1%. I don't believe in fat-free milk but if you choose to, then eventually transition down to fat-free milk.

6. Frozen vegetables store much better than finding mushy vegetables in your crisper drawer because you didn't have time to make them or you just forgot they were there.

7. Did you know that food suppliers typically freeze veggies just a few hours after they harvest them, which locks in the nutrients. Therefore, frozen veggies just may have greater nutritional value than fresh unless you grow them yourself. Fresh veggies often spend days in the back of a truck even before they reach your supermarket.

8. Worried about transfat in peanut butter. Look for the brands that state there is no trans fats on the label.

9. Worried about trans fats when cooking in margarine. Smart Balance has no trans fats and other margarines may be coming out since people are hearing trans fats are not good for our bodies.

10. Fresh fruits are a great way of getting fiber and calming that sweet tooth. Too much can cause a sweet craving.

Always consult your doctor when changing your eating habits or starting a diet.
