Are you wondering how or why you cannot lose the last stubborn five pounds? Or how to just tone up that little bit more? Even if losing weight is not your goal but just figuring out how to make those little changes to your body that will make you feel more confident, healthy, and happy! :)
If you are on a regular exercise routine and dialed into 70-80% of your diet, I almost guarantee that the change lies in the nitty gritty aspects of you diet.
Sooo what are the "nitty gritty" foods that you can dial into to change your body?
Here is a starting list:
The Nitty Gritty:
- The Obvious:
- Butter
- Alcohol
- Full fat salad dressings (try balsalmic vinegar or lemon juice with a Tbs. of Olive Oil)
- Cheese (1 ounce of cheese is as many calories as a full apple or small banana!)
- Egg yolks
- The Sneaky Calories:
- Coffee...I mean the stuff you add into it!
- Juice or drinks with calories
- Croutons
- Nuts (although nuts are great and packed full of healthy fat, you must keep the serving size in check!)
- Trim the extra fat off your meat (chicken, ham, etc.) before cooking
- Ketchup (I love ketchup! But it is high in sugar, so you have to watch it!)
- Sweet sauces (found a lot in asian food)
- BBQ sauce
