Losing fat isn’t easy…I don’t have to tell you that. You’ve been striving
for a fat loss goal for so long. To work towards your goal, you slave in the
gym and watch what you eat every day.
But what if you could drop 100 calories or more by making a single change to
your meal or snack? It is possible. You’ve just got to know where to swap.
Check out the list below to find out seven easy swaps that will make your
diet drop 100 calories instantly. Ready? Get swapping!
#1: From 2 Slices of Bread to 1
No, you don’t have to give up bread altogether. If you want to quickly watch
100 calories slide off your meal, all you’ve got to do is toss the top piece
of bread from your sandwich or the top bun from your burger. It may require
a bit of balancing on your part, but it will instantly save you 100 calories
and help that loaf of bread go twice as far.
#2: From Cream to Nonfat Milk
Have a hard time taking your coffee straight? You’re not alone. Not
interested in giving up coffee altogether? Then you’re going to need to find
a new option to the creamer-heavy concoction you make on a daily basis. The
easiest solution is to swap out your creamer for nonfat milk. Lucky for you,
this small swap pays off big, cutting 100 calories from your morning jolt.
#3: From Juice to the Real Thing
Orange juice is a staple of many folks’ breakfast routines. What if you
tossed the juice and went for the real thing—a genuine, bona fide orange?
You probably already guessed that this, too, would shave a lot of calories
from your meal. At the same time, you’ll get more fiber to keep your day
moving along well.
#4: From Peanuts to Edamame
They’re readily available, taste great, and give you the salt fix you need.
Peanuts are not, however, a low-calorie snacking option. Swap them out for
edamame and you’ll grab 4 bonus grams of protein, while cutting your calorie
count by 100.
#5: From Shake to Milk
When the stress of life gets to you, few things help you forget about your
troubles better than a chocolate milkshake. Unfortunately, that shake leaves
you feeling bloated and for good reason. It’s jam packed with calories. Get
the same chocolate comfort with a glass of chocolate milk instead of a shake
and cut out at least 100 calories.
#6: From Bacon to…Bacon
You grew up eating maple pork bacon and you’ve trained your kids to salivate
at the thought of it. What if there was a way to have your bacon and eat it,
too—without quite as many calories? There is. Going for an ounce—yes, just
one ounce—of maple turkey bacon instead of the pork version will shave more
than 100 calories from your daily consumption. And you still get to eat
bacon!
#7: From Raisins to Grapes
They won’t stay fresh for months, but if you eat fresh grapes instead of
their wrinkled siblings, you’ll cut right around 100 calories at once. Yes,
it is that easy.
