So many people view dieting as some sort of
cosmic punishment for not 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.
You can even enjoy the occasional treat
when dieting as long as you do so sparingly. The key when dieting is to learn
about proper portions and moderate indulgence. You can find all kinds of low
sugar or low carb desserts on the market that you can enjoy sparingly. You can
even find sugar free or low calorie candy in some cases though you should keep
in mind that calories, particularly when it comes to candy you eat
unconsciously add up quickly and you must pay close attention to those things
you put into your mouth.
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.
These dips and sauces can often make a
great substitution, when paired with vegetables, for those chips and dips we
love so much and often miss when dieting. Cucumbers, green, red, and yellow
peppers, broccoli, and carrot sticks all have a nice little crunch to them that
when combined with a good low fat dip can help cure the crave beast for greasy
chips that often rears its head when dieting.
If you watch your calories carefully during
meals you should be delighted to know that there are many little snack treats
that are prepackaged in 100 calorie packs for your enjoyment. This means that
you can indulge on occasion in those treats that you love most without
sacrificing all your dieting efforts in the process. These snack packs have
become one of the best marketing ploys since the invention of diet colas. We
all want the benefits of losing weight and will readily admit that if it were a
simple process we’d all be thin. However, having something like these hundred
calorie snack packs to carry you through the worst of your cravings can mean
the difference between dieting success and failure. They are definitely the
difference in the old way of dieting and the new way of dieting without
sacrificing flavor.
