If you're like me, you are constantly wanting to eat. If I'm bored, or resting, or whatever, I'm always eating. So the goal is to not gain weight by eating constantly. So how do you accomplish this? The answer? Eat more of what you love of course!
1. Use lettuce instead of bread for sandwiches and buns! example: turkey and cheese with some mustard and a tomato, sliced, on a lettuce leaf!
2. Cut that hotdog in half! If you're at a BBQ or at home and what a hotdog, or a t
urkeydog or whatever, cut it in half! Then you have two for the priceof one. Ok, I know what you're saying, why cut it in half, I want a friggin hotdog! Well, everyone knows that toppings are the best! So cut that dog in half,put it on some lettuce ^, and load it up with some of your favorite toppings. Probably cut out the ketchup since it has sugar in it, and that's high glycemic.But add lots of pickles, mustard, onions, peppers! Anything you want. Now you have two hotdogs for the price of one. Now you can eat more and longer!3. For Burgers and ect, instead of using a bun, use some rice cakes, or spelt cakes. Place on the bottom, load up the burger, then top it with a tomato! Boom
3. Add more fruit to your morning breakfast! So, I love cereal, and oatmeal, and breakfast in general. I crave it all the time. So when I wake up in the morning,most likely I'm going to have cereal or pancakes or oatmeal. The tip is, to cut calories, and make it more healthy, add more fruit to it! Throw some apples or bananas in that sucker. Put them in the food processor and throw them on top of less than normal oatmeal, so you can have a bigger bowl of it!
4. Add water to your oatmeal, with a splash of almond milk. Cooking your oatmeal in water is almost just as good. Throw in some spices and some sweetener, and Bada bing, you're good to go, with some fruit of course
5. Add more boiling water to that oatmeal! If you're like me, you want more of it constantly! So, add more water, make it a little more soupy, it takes much longer to eat this way, especially if it's super hot. Take your time, even though you're probably starving. Breath! I know, you want some food! When the oatmeal is almost gone, add some more water, than it takes even longer to eat!
6. Add a bit of whole wheat bran to your cereal or oatmeal. Less calories, more filling, and has great insoluble fiber, so your digestive system will thank you and you can clear out what's in "your closet" if you know what I mean...
7. Use a smaller spoon! Take smaller bits so it takes longer to eat!
8. If you like chicken salad or tuna salad or whatever, add more veggies and less mayo. Maybe use some yogurt instead of mayo! Add lots of pickles, I love pickles.
9. If you love coffee, which it's probably one of my favorite things, you can drink that extra cup. Ok, coffee only has like 5 calories, black! If you add cream and sugar, boom, more calories. So, my tip is, before that coffee cup is done, and you know you're gunna drink another cup, just add half a cup more before the last cup is gone. Then you have almost the same taste of the original coffee, but more of it!
10. Trick your mind. If it looks like a HUGE bowl of salad, and it takes a long time to eat it, your mind will think that it's actually a lot of food. Then when you're done, you can be like, wow, I just ate a ton! Although, it probably was very little in calories, and good for you.
11! The best tip: Have fun! Try new ways to make the foods you love with veggies or healthy things, which is what this blog is about! It's not about eating crappy tasting food, but its about making healthy things taste like the things you love and want more of. Like, you should be saying, MAN, I really can't wait to eat that cauliflower! Seriously!
