50 Fewer Calories per Meal
Painless weight loss, 50 calories at a time - Nutrition Notes - MSNBC.com
When it comes to favorite treats, one of the easiest ways to cut calories without giving up your loved product is to cut portions. Chocolate lovers can still indulge by slowly savoring a smaller portion. You can purchase pre-wrapped portions of chocolates that are one-ounce or less, or portion your own serving size, such as four chocolate kisses or a coffee scoop (two tablespoons) of chocolate chips.If you can’t do without french fries, drop your usual order one size (or eat only half of what comes on most restaurant plates) and you’ll cut 100 to 170 calories.
Portion reduction definitely helps. But some of the other advice, such as switching to low fat or sugar free, seemed pretty obvious. Is there anyone trying to lose weight who hasn’t already done this? It seems something a bit more is needed.
