Healthy Weight Loss

Original Article @ Lose Weight USA

Healthy Weight loss Flaming June is here so here is a list of foods to avoid this summer if you don't want to pack on unwanted weight.

1. High-Fat Meats on the Barbecue – Steaks, brats and cheeseburgers sound (and smell) amazing when it's time to fire up the grill, but there are better options if you're trying to watch what you eat. Lean beef (go easy on the cheese) chicken and pork are lighter alternatives for the BBQ season.

2. Take Me Out to the Ball Game – While hot dogs are basically synonymous with summer, barbecues and baseball, they are also synonymous with something else – water retention! Because of their high levels of sodium, hot dogs can cause you to retain water which can lead to avoidable weight gain.

3. Mayonnaise-Based Salads – the word salad makes you think "healthy" but adding cups of mayo makes a normally healthy thing terribly unhealthy.

4. Frozen Concoctions – That brightly coloured drink in the tall glass with the umbrella and chunk of fruit on top may seem fun, but what's not fun is the amount of sugar in some of those drinks.

5. Satisfying Thirst Quenchers – It's not a good thing to drink your calories, especially when you're looking to lose weight, but that's exactly what you're doing when you down glass after glass of iced tea, lemonade, soda or juice.

6. Refreshing Frozen Treats – One must have for the hot summer months is ice cream, however all the additional stuff that goes along with ice cream, including (but not limited too) sprinkles, sauces, whipped cream, nuts, etc. can pack on the calories to a relatively harmless treat.

7. Frighteningly Fattening Fair Food – Anything deemed "frighteningly fattening" cannot be good for you! You've seen these things before (and maybe even tried them) deep fried Twinkies, deep fried Snickers bars, Funnel cake, etc. and while they may sound yummy and interesting, consider allowing everyone in your group one bite of each item to keep yourself from overdoing it.

8. Salad Toppers – Salad, on its own, is a great option if you're looking to lose weight, but when you start getting fancy and throwing in cheese crumbles and bacon bits, croutons and creamy dressings you start to enter the danger zone of healthy eating!

9. Finger-Licking Fried Chicken – We seem to think everything is better fried, but what's not better is our health! Soak some skinless chicken in a tasty marinade, add some spices, and you'll never miss the fried chicken you'd once considered!

We may be bombarded with unhealthy food choices throughout the summer, but we don't have to let it ruin our healthy weight loss diets! We can choose healthier options or just exercise some self control and only have a little of the bad stuff. Every good choice we make gets us that much closer to our weight loss goals!
