AUGUST 4, 2022 WEIGHT LOSS AND CALORIES

WE all want to lose weight. Most of us need 5-10 lbs off . Yet you want to eat and not starve yourself. There are foods to eat that are low in calories that fill you up You must look at calories. When it comes to losing weight, calories are the most important factor. Even if you don’t count calories, it’s still helpful to be aware of how many calories are in the foods and beverages you consume

There are a number of foods with low calories that are filling.

The first two examples are nuts/seeds and vegetables. I always turn to a nut butter or nuts/seeds to fill me up when hungry ( especially as a snack after dinner) while reading or stitching

Another good example is fruit Fruits like apples, pears, oranges, melons, and berries are full of water and fiber so they’ll fill you up with fewer calories than other foods will. Plus fruits contain antioxidants which may have health benefits as well! You can’t go wrong with fruits

I know many nutritionists that suggest popcorn. I am not a fan of popcorn unless I am going to waterpik my teeth after ingesting. The kernels and popcorn can get caught in your teeth YOU must waterpik according to dental hygienist, Sandra Senzon ( Tooth Fairy )

Hummus is also suggested
