A Healthy Bug
Indulging in a fat free diet is quite the challenge. There are fat free foods out there and incorporating them into one’s diet is a healthy step towards an overall, healthier lifestyle. Yet, it isn’t uncommon to incorporate some fat free options with low fat options, in an effort to keep our meals manageable and with variety.
I am not a diet guru…I have not tapped into every diet fad out there. I have tried some, none with too much enthusiasm, and have found for me, trying to eat healthier while tossing in some exercise is my best plan. The hardest part about my plan is ensuring that the calories I am taking in are less than the calories I am burning throughout the day. I suppose that is the most simplest formula to losing weight. Don’t eat more than your body can burn.
Have you ever went to your gym, jumped on the treadmill or elliptical machine, exercised for a period of time, sweat dripping off your head….pushed the button to show your “calories burned” and were amazed and proud of yourself for the progress you made? I did that all the time. Yet, I wasn’t seeing the results I was hoping to see…and I didn’t understand it.
