Eating to lose weight isn't a diet, it's a lifestyle choice.
Or spend our money and time in the hospital because of some sort of chronic disease brought on by being over weight. So follow our healthy eating guidelines and check out our healthy eating pyramid, it's a return to the fresh, natural, healthy eating habits of the Mediterranean diet menu...where foods that burn fat are the norm, disease is low and life is long. Gotta love it. Start eating to lose weight, it's the best way to burn fat. 1. Use olive oil as the principal fat, ( health benefits of olive oil are awesome) replacing other fats and oils. But use a light hand, it is loaded with calories. 2. Drink a moderate consumption of wine, normally with meals. About one to two glasses per day for men and one glass per day for women. 3. Eat fresh fruit as a typical daily dessert or snack; put the brakes on sweets with a significant amount of sugar and saturated fat (saturated fat is bad mojo). 4. Incorporate an abundance of food from plant sources, including fruits and vegetables, breads and grains, beans, nuts, and seeds. 5. Eat minimally processed and seasonally fresh and locally grown foods. The closer the farm is to your home, the fresher the food. 6. Total dietary fat should range from less than 25 percent to over 35 percent of energy, with saturated fat no more than 7 to 8 percent of total calories. 7. Eat low to moderate amounts of cheese and yoghurt daily. 8. Consume low to moderate amounts of fish and poultry weekly; and limit eggs from zero to four servings per week. 9. Only eat red meat a few times or just one time per month (and never processed meat injected with chemicals, like hot dogs). 10. Exercise, yep last but not least you got to get on some fat burning exercises, like a good running or walking plan and move that body. This is how they have done it in and around the Mediterranean for centuries, and you can do it too. The Mediterranean diet menu, where healthy eating plans are all about eating to lose weight, heart healthy foods and long happy lives. The Mediterranean diet is the best way to burn fat, besides... "You've got nothing to lose, but weight."
