Many people think that
dieting is sort of punishment for having the perfect body.
They believe that enjoying food is somehow bad for them,
which couldn’t be further from the truth. If you want to be completely honest
with yourself, when it comes to dieting, it isn’t about giving up food or
flavor; it’s about discovering new foods and flavors. At least that is what it
is for those who truly love food as well as adventure.
There are many spices
out there that can make even the blandest of foods a little exciting. Fish and
chicken are popular diet foods because they are lean meats. However, adding a
little blackening seasoning is a great way to put a little punch in your meal
that will make it taste great without packing on the calories of dressing
marinades or soaking in butter before broiling. You do not have to stop there.
Italian seasoning can also add a little flavor to your kitchen without adding
the extra calories that you are working so hard to avoid.
There are all kinds of
seasonings that will work well in this instance. Many great seasonings for
chicken also make great additions to chicken that will be included in salads
for healthier lunches or salad wraps.
Grains are good for you when you concentrate on whole
grains. They are quite often the primary source of fiber in a diet and you need
fiber almost as much as you need water. At any rate, simple things that spice
up the same old lunch can have a huge impact on your enjoyment of food. My point in all this though is that you do
not have to sacrifice flavor in order to diet. You can live without butter;
there are many substitutions on the market that are quite remarkable. But
seasonings are a great way to add a lot of flavor for a tiny bit of effort on
your part.
Desserts are also great
and you can find many dips and sauces that can be made with fat free or low fat
mayonnaise or sour cream in order to cut a few more calories during your
dieting process.
