Crash diets have you in a calorie-cutting rut?
Here's a tip: Eat five or six mini meals per day, including a balanced amount of proteins, carbohydrates and "good fats," like Omega-3s, to increase your metabolism. Good fats, which are low in saturated fats, can be found in avocado, salmon, flax seeds, and nuts, among others. To feel fuller faster, rely on unrefined carbohydrates, such as long-grain rice and fibrous foods like bran and whole grains. The best sources of protein are found in white meats, lean cuts of beef, egg whites and low-fat dairy products.
Pack small containers of mini meals so that you always have them nearby to rescue you from those tempting office vending machines and fast-food traps.
And it’s summer---don’t forget to hydrate. There are a lot more options on the shelves than bland-tasting water that don’t have many calories. Stick to products containing electrolytes to replenish the body’s loss of water throughout the day.
