Grocery Shopping for Your Diet Page 28

Unfortunately, cheese on a diet is also a big no-no. However, you can find low-fat or

fat-free cheese in most grocery stores, so always pick these first. But use it
sparingly!

Eggs are all right on your diet, but you’re better off to use only the whites instead of

including the yolks. Egg substitutes are a great way to get your egg fix, so look for
these in the store as well.

Fat-free sour cream is alright in moderation, but try to substitute with plain yogurt

instead.

Vegetables and Fruits

Vegetables and Fruits

Almost all fresh vegetables are good for you. It’s a generally accepted belief that
you can eat all the vegetables you want and still lose weight. That’s pretty much true
– as long as they’re prepared the correct way. It’s always best to steam veggies.

You can also drizzle them with a little olive oil and bake them in the oven or – even
better – roast them on the grill! Yummy!

Be careful of eating too many fruits that contain a lot of natural sugars like oranges

and peaches. Because the sugar is naturally there, it’s not horribly bad for you, but
you don’t want to overload on sugars because it can be converted to fat.

One big thing you must do when you decide that you want to lose weight is to

immediately clean the cupboards and refrigerator getting rid of all the foods that can
inhibit your diet. That means get rid of the chips, processed sugar, canned fruits,
etc.

Don’t throw them away – give them to a local food bank. Believe me, they’ll be

happy to get whatever you have to offer – diet friendly or not!

Once you do that, you get to go shopping! Don’t dread it! Just shop smart!
