weight loss food

Losing weight can be difficult. However, the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI English acronym) suggests the following (of course, you should discuss with your doctor first):

* Get up 15 minutes earlier in the morning and have breakfast at home. Include fruit, bread and skim milk.
* Prepare a healthy lunch the night before. Include grains, fruits, and vegetables.
* Bring a fruit to eat as a snack at work. Drink water instead of soda. ”
* Eat small portions at dinner. Add vegetables and a salad with low fat dressing.
* Walk or use the stairs instead of the elevator

Eat a variety of foods. Choose foods low in fat and calories. For example:

* Skim milk (skim) milk or milk with 1 (one) percent fat
* CHEESE marked on the wrapper “low fat” or “fat”
* Fruits and vegetables without butter or cream
* Rice, beans, cereals, corn tortillas and pasta
* Courts lean meats, fish and skinless chicken or turkey
