Losing Weight Starts in the Kitchen

Losing Weight Starts In The Kitchen

Reduce invisible fat.

Use nonstick cookware and use nonstick vegetable cooking spray instead of butter or oil. Reduce the amount of oil used when cooking and look for low-fat versions of your favorite foods. Try substituting chicken, turkey or veggies in your favorite beef recipes.

Remove skin from meats.

Before you cook, remove skin from meats to save on fat and calories. Trim away any visible fat on meat and poultry before cooking, and marinate in lemon or lime juice, fat-free or reduced-fat salad dressing or fat-free broth.

Avoid snacking while cooking.

The calories can add up quickly. Or munch on ½ cup raw carrots, cucumbers or green peppers to prevent you from snacking on the higher-calorie foods.

Experiment.

Be adventurous with different cooking techniques. Try roasting, grilling, baking, broiling and steaming instead of frying. Try new toppings that are naturally low in fat, such as salsas, relishes and chutneys.
