How to Eat and Cook Nutritionally Smart!
  Learn how to eat great food, not wear it on your hips!
  1. Recognize your danger zones. Do you crave salty foods or those sugar loaded snacks while on the phone or around 3pm? Banish those zombies with my list of healthy carb snacks.

  2. Watch out for BIG calories in LITTLE portions. Sweet, salty, or high fat dairy based foods have lots of calories but no "feel full" power. Avoid cream in coffee, mini cookies, juice smoothies (how about 800 beaucoup calories a glass!)  pretzels, potato chips and high octaine, fully loaded soda.

  3. When You're Bad...Be VERY VERY BAD! Don't cheat with stale chips or soggy cupcakes. Eat the best BAD food you can find, such as an elegant piece of molten lava chocolate cake or a whipped cream chocolate. You won't feel deprived, but maybe a little bit guilty. Guilt is good!

  4. Consider items made with refined flours, such as pasta and bread, as treats. Focus on fiber rich versions of pasta and bread and see how much more satisfied you feel with smaller portions.

  5. Practice Portion Control .No matter how much we WISH there were calorie free foods, everything you put in your mouth counts, so select wisely.

  6. Shred, chop or slice any high calorie ingredients such as cheese to make it go further.  Just sprinkle some on a salad or put some parmesan cheese over a chicken breast before roasting. You'll get maximum flavor with fewer calories.

  7. In one word: MOVE .  Fidgeting can really help you lose weight according to a recent research article. ANY movement can help, so try doing 10 minutes at a time of walking, or stair climbing ( the real ones, not those stupid things that go nowhere) and watch your metabolism turn up a notch or two.

  8. Beware the salad dressing demons! Regular salad dressing is 120 calories or more for two tablespoons. Instead, concentrate on flavored vinegars, such as fig or raspberry. You won't miss the oil but your hips will thank you!.

  9. Focus on all of the good things you can eat, not what's off limits. Need ideas? Then read the article "Miracle Carbs" for a shopping list and more.

  10. Eat healthy snacks at mid morning and mid afternoon to prevent becoming ravenous.  Just nibble and watch the weight fall off. It will help stop the thoughtless snacking that can pack on the pounds.
