When we are on a diet to lose weight or simply wish to consume low-calorie foods, it is essential to know some suggestions that will help you achieve your goals.
Through these suggestions, you can subtract calories from meals and thus prepare dishes with lower caloric value.
- If you consume salads, do not add sauces, mayonnaise, ketchup, cheese, among others, as these will only increase the caloric value. Season it only with olive oil, vinegar or lemon, salt, and aromatic herbs.
- Do not cook with oil; it and its calories transfer to the food you are trying to cook, even if it has very low calories like in the case of a vegetable.
- Avoid adding sugar to infusions or preparations; sweeten them with sweeteners.
- Keep in mind the foods you eat between meals, as these add calories even if you don’t realize it.
- Avoid cookies and bread; these foods contain many calories and do not provide satiety.
- Drink water or calorie-free sodas; regular sodas contribute a lot of calories even if it doesn’t seem like it. If we multiply this by several glasses a day, it ends up being a considerable caloric value.
- If you feel food anxiety, choose fruits and vegetables; these foods will not only provide you with satiety but also fewer calories.
- When choosing desserts, preferably choose fruits or low-calorie jellies.
- If you eat outside your home, consume salads; they will increase satiety and reduce calories consumed.
- Use mustard instead of mayonnaise and ketchup.
Remember that diet and physical activity are essential for losing weight healthily.
