Here is a 7 day plan for shaving off those pesky extra calories we all enjoy, but could do without.
Monday- Skip the Grande Vanilla Latte
Substitute with a brewed black coffee, and save 250 calories (1750 per week).
Tuesday- Spritz Your Salad
Your favourite salad can be a calorie nightmare when loaded with unhealthy, commerical salad dressing. Invest in an oil spritzer, and spritz your salad with heart healthy oils such as olive, flax or grapeseed. Season with dried herbs and Nature's Cargo Sea Salt. Save 100 calories (700 per week).
Wednesday- Say no to mayo
Try replacing mayo with mustard, you get all the zip without the fat. Save 100 calories (700 per week)
Thursday- Ditch the fat
Steam your veggies, instead of frying them in oil, get that heart healthy veggie "crunch" and save 115 calories. (805 per week)
Friday- Add a lil fizz to happy hour
Switch your favourite cosmo for a vodka soda with a splash of cranberry juice, saving 90 calories for 2 drinks.
Saturday- Why drive when you can walk?
Slip some walking into your weekend. Park your car and walk between stores while out and about doing errands. Burn 180 calories per hour. (1260 per week)
Sunday- Lean, Mean Breakfast
Try poaching eggs instead of fried or scrambled, saving 50 calories.
100 calories saved per day= lose 1 pound per month
200 calories saved per day= lose 2 pounds per month
300 calories saved per day= lose about 4 pounds
