Week 4- Keepin' It Real, Keepin' It Lean!
| Posted on 3 February, 2014 at 13:37 |
Ok
everyone, we are into week 4 of 12 steps to a healthier lifestyle! What to
work on this week? Keep it real, keep it lean!
What does this mean? When you
choose your protein choose less processed, less fat. For example, choose baked, stir-fried or grilled chicken,
without the skin. Have baked, pan
sautéed or grilled fish.
Please
please limit your intake of sausage, bacon, pepperoni, salami and ham as these are highly
processed meats. They are high in saturated fat (harmful fat for the heart) and many contain nitrates (harmful preservative).
Have 4 oz.,
tofu, ½ cup beans or a veggie burger
patty in place of higher fat meats.
Try turkey
or chicken sausage (much less fat than the regular). Also, you can use ground turkey in place of
ground beef in dishes.
When you do
have red meat on occasion, choose flank steak or tenderloin. These are the leanest cuts available for
beef. When buying ground beef, buy 95%
lean.
If you
follow these tips, you will be on your way to a healthier lifestyle. Remember, you rule!!! You can do this! |
