Part 1: 50 Simple Ways to Cut 100 Calories Per Meal
In a recent article, I discussed how eating slowly can help you lose up to 50 pounds in a year. Studies reveal that taking your time while eating allows your stomach to signal your brain when you're full. On average, this signaling takes about 20 minutes. In simple terms, eating slowly enables your brain to communicate to your body that it's time to stop eating.
If you eat quickly, however, you might continue consuming food before your brain realizes you're full. For instance, if you devour your first plate in just 5 to 8 minutes, your brain might still register hunger, prompting you to go for seconds or even thirds. This often results in unburned calories being stored as fat. By chewing slowly?"around 50 times per bite?"you might find you don’t need those extra portions.
Now, imagine slowing down your eating and also cutting an extra 100 calories from each meal. This combination can significantly boost your weight loss efforts. Below is a list of 29 ways to easily eliminate those 100 calories:
- Substitute 1 tablespoon of fruit jam for 1.5 tablespoons of butter on your toast.
