Little things …. BIG difference.
Little changes in how you eat and how you move can make a BIG even HUGE difference. Not in a day or a week or even a month … give a pile of small changes a year and see where you are.
After all, you didn’t get to be 50 pounds over your target weight, last week … it probably took a year or maybe even three.
Breakfast Cereal:
Switch from 2% to 1% milk. In a year you’ll save 12,000 calories and over 900 grams of fat.
Love Chicken Nuggets?
Just SIX of these TINY little beasts contain over 28 grams of fat and 500 calories. Give one or two of them to your dog (unless your dog is overweight too!).
Love those Baked Potatoes?
Switch from full fat to low fat or no fat sour cream. Let’s say you have a baked potato once a week. If you blob on two tablespoons of the low-fat stuff (plus butter of course) the switch will save you almost 2000 calories and 300 grams of fat a year. That’s a LOT of fat.
TV Couch Potato?
Get your fat burning machine into gear. Go for a 30 minute walk or run before you turn on the TV … then you can lie on the couch and let your boosted metabolism keep on burning the calories as you veg out.
Oh my God!
Did you know that ONE cheese danish contains WAY more calories and twice as much fat as a fast-food hamburger? And here I thought that by avoiding MacDonalds I was making a healthy choice!
Sandwich Trick
Do you do this? Spread butter on your sandwich bread … and then a layer of mayo? Axe the butter. Just spread the mayo and you’ll never know the difference … except one year later you’ll be several pounds lighter!
And if you are struggling with all of this … try some hypnosis, while you are laying on the couch!
