SO TO HELP YOU (since if your grabbing meals out your probably stretched for time...)

I have compiled the top tips you want to follow to rock your weight loss goals. Scroll down & enjoy

Hello! Thanks for checking in:) I hope you enjoy my top tips....

Now you still must be an informed customer, resist menu temptations, and make healthy choices when it comes to fast food TO STAY ON TRACK WITH YOUR WEIGHT LOSS GOALS

​Tip#1 -Order Lean Meats. Steer clear of meals labeled fried, breaded, basted, creamy, crispy, batter-dipped, au gratin, scalloped, or Alfredo. These dishes are usually high in unhealthy fats, sodium, and calories. Instead, go for lean meat options that are broiled or grilled and fresh or steamed veggies (thats chicken or fish over red meat) If needed, special order your food to be prepared in a healthier manner.

Tip#2-Stick with Simple. A salad may seem like a low-fat option until you drown it in fried toppings, high-fat dressing, and cheese. A deli sandwich is a great choice until you add the mayo, spreads, and cheeses. The same goes for a baked potato. What about the butter, cheese, bacon, salt, and mountain of sour cream?

Simple, fresh ingredients are best. Ask for dressings and toppings on the side so you can monitor how much is added.

Tip #3 Cut Portions Down. A single serving at many restaurants could feed an entire family. The average meal at a fast-food joint can contain more than 1,000 calories. Extra large options should be replaced with smaller portions or shared with family or friends. Don’t forget the calories contained in your drinks. Often overlooked, the calories in sodas and sweetened beverages add up quickly!!!!!!!

You will need to do a smaller portion than at home since there will be more fat added to make it palatable...why not ask for a to go container when your meal arrives to divvy out you portion without temptation...or order an appetizer or kids meal

Try unsweetened iced tea or lemon water instead....add stevia to the lemon water (little packets fit great in to a wallet)

Tip #4 Eat Slowly. Unfortunately, when you’re in a hurry and aren’t thinking about what you’re eating, you tend to overeat and overindulge.

Slow down and chew slowly. Your food will digest easier and you’ll most likely eat less. Remember, it takes time for your brain to get the message that you’re satisfied. So chew well and give your brain the chance it needs.

TIP #5 BURN IT OFF

​Are you eating when you are most active to burn it off or overfilling your gas tank when you are not going to be using the fuel...so it gets stored as fat

​YOU CAN DO THIS, slight adjustments and some good planning is going to help you rock this journey AND FINALLY GET THE RESULTS YOU WANT!!!!
