A Rocking Low Fat Diet Plan for You!
By Contributor on May 10, 2015
Let’s face it: diets are boring, and the phrase, “Rocking Low Fat Diet Plan“, it just doesn’t sound right, does it…
It doesn’t take long before you’re
missing your favorite foods, wishing that you had never started this
stupid plan anyway, and wondering just how many “cheat days” are
acceptable before it’s considered giving up completely. Low fat diet plans can
feel particularly difficult to live with–especially if your favorite
foods are bacon, chocolate, and cake (not necessarily in that order).
Thankfully, there are plenty of ways you can put together a low fat
diet plan that you can live with–and one that will work for you.
Don’t eliminate your favorite foods.
Instead of denying yourself all of your
favorite foods, which often leads you to splurge when you finally get
the chance to eat whatever you want, consider looking for lower-fat
alternatives. For example, if your favorite meal is a big, greasy
cheeseburger, check out a turkey burger instead. Don’t think any junk food meal is complete without a heaping plate of fries? Try this healthy sweet potato fries recipe,
and you might just discover a new favorite. You’ll be surprised by how
many healthy alternatives to your favorite treats there really are out
there–and before you know it, you may even discover that you like the
healthy alternatives better.
A Rocking Low Fat Diet Plan for You!
Can’t find a healthy alternative to your
favorite treat, or think that the “real” version tastes about a hundred
times better? Allow yourself to continue to enjoy it both regularly and
in moderation. A small taste of your favorite treat on a regular basis
will help keep you from splurging when you finally do get your hands on
it, and knowing that you have your favorite treat to look forward to
will help keep the rest of your eating habits under control.
Shake it up!
Consider a meal replacement shake or
smoothie option that will let you have a fantastic treat without piling
on the calories. Meal replacement shakes can be made to taste just as
good as a milkshake. Need a little help getting started with a recipe
that you’ll love? Check out our collection of 101 Healthy Shake Recipes, which will allow you to try out a new shake recipe every day if that’s what you want.
Don’t forget your healthy fats.
When you’re on a low-fat diet, you may be
wary of consuming any fats at all. There’s a difference, however,
between “healthy fats” and “unhealthy fats,” and you should be careful
to remember the difference in your diet. Avocados and coconut oil are
two examples of healthy fats that certainly shouldn’t disappear from
your diet; just remember to use them in moderation.
Remember portion control.
Restaurant meals have gotten steadily
larger, as has the American idea of an acceptably-sized meal. It’s no
coincidence, either, that the average American waistline has increased
along with portion size. The linked article has some great tips on
keeping your portion sizes reasonable and your waistline slimmer.
Don’t forget to exercise.
While the weight loss battle is
ultimately won or lost in the kitchen, your activity level will have a
great deal to do with your final results. The Beachbody On Demand library
has a fantastic selection of 150 streaming workout videos that you can
choose at your discretion, working out at home or on the road when it’s
convenient for you.
No matter what your low fat diet plans,
remember: you’re beautiful! While losing weight and getting in shape
is a great goal, it’s important to remember that your body is beautiful
just as it is, and that you are fantastic the way you are. As you go
down the road of your weight loss journey, there will be peaks and
valleys, successes and failures–and all of them are part of what makes
you who you are.
