How to cut 100 calories!

Cutting Calories

How much weight have you gain since you left High School? Since you got married? Since you had your first, second, or third child?…
We’ve gotten older, have more responsibilities and think less and less of what we put in our bodies until something hurts, we’re in the hospital or too round to fit into those jeans again.
By paying attention to what we drink and eat can save us some headaches later. Here’s how:
If you were to cut or Add 100 calories from your diet every day for a year, that’s 10 pounds each year….you gain or lose.
Cutting 100 calories a day is not that bad or hard if you know how to do it.
Here’s a few TIPS:
  • Prep your own snacks: How many times have you been hungry or had the munchies and reach for sugar, starch or fat (all of these are available at your nearest Vending Machine) But if you prep in advance with fruits, almonds or any whole Food you’ll be safe and save right there 100 a day.
  • Don’t clean your plate: our moms always said, “you cant get off that chair till you eat everything in that plate”. But what if I’m full?… You stop eating! Take your food to go or save it for tomorrows lunch.
  • Stop drinking so much Soda and more Water: no explanation needed
  • Eat Breakfast: people that eat a healthy balance breakfast are less likely to eat more throughout the day. Specially that snack before lunch.
  • Don’t accessorize your coffee drinks: ditching your grande caramel macchiato with two-percent milk (about 240 calories) for a tall nonfat caffe latte—it’ll save you almost 150 calories.
  • Choose your Carbs wisely: replace your bagel with a whole grain substituted
