THE 20 BEST WEIGHT-LOSS FOODS
Looking for an easy way to lose a few pounds? We've got the
program. It's simple, and it works. So get with it.
By Lisa Dorfman, M.S., R.D.
Many runners would like to lose a pound or 2. Maybe 5. Maybe
more. Why? That's easy: to feel better, look better, improve their
health, and run farther and faster.
However, losing weight can be surprisingly difficult. In fact,
national health surveys show Americans in general are getting
fatter. Sure, regular runners should be ahead of the pack, but
many are still losing the weight-gain war.
What you need is a simple plan. Here it is, in just two parts: (1)
Make a little more time to run; (2) Concentrate on a handful of
dietary changes that, over the course of a year, can produce
significant weight-loss results.
Below we've listed 20 great diet changes that you'll find easy to
achieve. Many of them will help you cut 100 calories or more from
a single serving. Now do the math. Say you eat this particular food
or meal three times a week. That's 100 x 3 x 52, or 15,600 calories
saved in a year. Which comes to almost 5 pounds, since you'll lose
one pound for every 3,500 calories cut from your food intake.
Make another food substitution, and you're up to 10 pounds.
Beyond that, the sky's the limit. Here's your meal-by-meal planner.
BREAKFAST
Don't skip breakfast. A good breakfast is the most crucial part of
any healthy weight-loss effort, as it revs up your energy level and
metabolism for the full day.
Homemade raisin bran
Description: Mix one cup of Total cereal, a packet of raisins, and 1
cup nonfat milk. This simple home recipe with 244 calories
fortifies you with 100 percent of the Daily Value for most vitamins
and minerals, boosts your protein intake by 12 grams, and gives
you a sweet, natural fiber and sugar source.
You'll Save: 50 calories, 6 teaspoons of sugar, and 5 grams of fat
compared with ready-to-serve raisin bran doused with a cup of
2-percent milk.
Scrambled whites with greens
Description: This low-fat, scrambled-egg alternative provides 54
grams of high-quality dietary protein in just 255 calories. First,
spray your frying pan with fat-free Pam. Then pour the equivalent
of four servings of Eggology egg whites (or Second Nature or Egg
Beaters egg whites) in a bowl and blend with 1/2 cup spinach and
1/2 cup mushrooms. Heat the pan until the Pam starts to bubble,
pour in the eggs, and fry until the eggs are nearly dry.
You'll Save: 40 calories, 100 milligrams of cholesterol, and 13
grams of fat compared with two normal scrambled eggs.
Balanced Diet Shake
Description: For something cool, tasty, and nutrient-filled in the
morning, try a shake or smoothie. The Balanced Diet nutritional
drink provides 180 calories with lots of complex carbohydrates,
vitamins, and minerals in a naturally flavored French vanilla or
chocolate royale. Each serving includes 5 grams of dietary fiber
and 10 grams of soy, or 40 percent of the daily minimum now
recommended by the American Heart Association.
You'll Save: 60 calories daily and nearly 6 grams of fat compared
with many other similar drinks.
Frozen fruit smoothie
Description: You can prepare your own personal antioxidant-filled
fruit smoothie like the following one that runner Bruce Shapiro
used to lose 30 pounds over the last few years. Combine and
blend: one cup frozen, unsweetened blueberries; 1/2 banana; 1/4
cup wheat germ; and water.
You'll Save: 200 calories for each 2- to 3-cup serving, compared
with many store-bought and canned smoothie beverages.
Toasted plain Lender's Bagel with natural jam
Description: Sure, a frozen bagel can't match a fresh one, but it's
easier to obtain for many people, and a little toasting brings it to
near perfection. Just spread with your favorite natural jam.
You'll Save: Anywhere from 160 to 360 calories and more than 10
grams of fat compared with similar bagels bought at Dunkin'
Donuts and other outlets where the bagels are spread with cream
cheese.
LUNCH
Lunch is the second-most-important meal of the day in your
weight-loss plan. It boosts your energy level and regulates your
metabolism to keep you on an even keel.
Boca Burger Grilled Vegetable burger
Description: This zesty, soy-based vegetarian alternative to the
high-saturated-fat American BBQ staple contains hints of zucchini,
red-bell pepper, garlic, onion, and even a couple of cheeses. It
tastes great and provides a good dose of protein. Add some
lettuce, tomato, ketchup, or your other favorite toppings, and
you'll hardly notice the difference from the traditional burger.
You'll Save: Up to 180 calories and 19 grams of fat compared with
a typically-grilled 3-ounce beef burger.
Alvarado Street sprouted wheat tortilla
Description: It's easy to make your own delicious wrap and save
hundreds of calories. With this tasty, organic, whole-wheat tortilla
you'll have no trouble fixing a quick, hearty lunch. Boost your
vitamin and mineral intake by loading on a handful of greens,
shredded carrots, tomato, and peppers along with grilled chicken,
lean meat, turkey, or a bean-based filler.
You'll Save: Anywhere from 50 calories and 5 grams of fat to much
more if you customarily buy a commercial wrap drowning in mayo,
oily toppings, or greasy chicken.
Subway roast beef sub sandwich
Description: Can't live without meat? You don't have to. Meat is a
great source of protein, iron, and several important minerals, and
the Subway lean 6-inch roast beef sub contains just 264 calories
and 4.5 grams of fat in a meal perfectly balanced with lettuce,
tomato, and vegetables.
You'll Save: Nearly 100 calories and 12 grams of fat compared with
a tuna salad sub, and more than 20 grams of fat compared with the
classic meatball sub.
Health Valley chili
Description: The right soup is always a great part of your
weight-loss arsenal. This can of fat-free chili is tasty, easy to
prepare, and filled with healthy fiber.
You'll Save: 200 calories and 22 grams of fat compared with other
prepared and restaurant chilis.
Tossed salad with croutons instead of salad dressing.
Description: You know that green salads make an important
contribution to your day's eating, but you've probably never
thought of them as an expression of art and adventure. Here's
your chance. Instead of drenching your salads in high-fat
dressings, decorate them with croutons, beans, or fruit.
You'll Save: 100 calories and 28 grams of fat when you add 1
ounce of croutons and 1/2 cup of beans, peas, and raisins to your
salad in place of 1 ounce of an oil-based dressing. You'll also
increase your intake of iron, folic acid, Vitamin C, and fiber.
MUNCHIES
Everybody has a snack attack at one time or another, and there's
no reason to fight it. Research shows that those who snack when
hungry eat less later and control their weight better. Just be sure
you eat healthy, low-fat snacks such as the ones that follow.
Frozen grapes, blueberries, and/or bananas
Description: Frozen cold sweet fruits are refreshing, satisfying,
nutritious, and taste "smooth" or even creamy like many fat-filled
desserts. They're easy to store in your freezer, whether store
bought or picked-by-you-and-your-family and then frozen.
Because of their texture, temperature, and consistency, they
taste sweet, and alert your body to stop eating before you've
overdone it.
You'll Save: 80 calories when you compare a whole 12-ounce bag
of frozen blueberries to a small serving of TCBY frozen yogurt,
and 200 calories and 14 grams of fat when you compare a frozen
banana with a 1/2 cup of Ben and Jerry's.
Dried papaya, mango, and/or dates
Description: For a sweet taste that mimics a piece of candy, try a
dried-fruit snack. Raisins are the most popular, but these
papayas, mangos, and dates will provide your daily dose of
vitamin C, plus some vitamin A and iron. They require more
chewing time than raisins, and will satisfy most people in a smaller
quantity than raisins, which are easy to overeat.
You'll Save: 100 to 150 calories for 4 to 6 pieces when compared
with a handful of raisins or other dense, sugary foods and candies.
Glenny's Apple Cinnamon Low-Fat Soy Crisps
Description: Available in two-serving bags, these crunchy
cinnamon treats will satisfy your sweet tooth while setting you
back just 150 calories for 28 crisps. Also available in lightly salted
and onion flavor, each bag contains 10 grams of soy protein (The
American Heart Association recommends 25 to 50 grams of soy
protein each day for heart health) plus 200 percent of your daily
vitamin C need, 20 percent of your iron need, and 10 percent of
your calcium need.
You'll Save: 150 calories and 15 grams of fat compared with
graham-cracker snack treats.
DINNER
A satisfying dinner will help you avoid a late-night pigout. The
best dinners are high in complex carbohydrates, and low in fat.
The carbohydrates will help you sleep better, and also fuel your
morning workout.
Spaghetti squash
Description: When prepared, the spaghetti squash actually
resembles a plate of spaghetti, so you can add all your favorite
sauces and toppings. Rich in fluids (about 92.3 percent water),
carbohydrates, fiber, potassium, Vitamin C, and pantothenic acid
(a B vitamin), spaghetti squash makes an ideal, low-calorie entre
that's still filling. (Note: This is not, however, the best way to
carbo-load for a marathon, or resupply your leg muscles after a
hard workout. For that, you'll want a traditional plate of pasta,
heavy on the spaghetti, and light on the sauces.)
You'll Save: 200 calories compared with 2 cups of wheat spaghetti.
Papadini, hi-protein, pure-lentil bean pasta
Description: This delicious, wheat- and gluten-free pasta has a
unique, appealing taste, and shouldn't trouble runners whose
stomachs are sensitive to regular pastas. It also has 5 more grams
of protein per serving than traditional pasta, and is richer in iron,
folic acid, and other B-vitamins necessary for metabolizing
carbohydrates, proteins, and fats for energy. When you prepare
Papadini pasta as a vegetable primavera, tossed with peas, beans
carrots, tomatoes, and corn, you get as much protein as a chicken
or steak dinner without the excess fat, cholesterol, and calories.
You'll Save: 20 calories per 2-ounce serving compared with
traditional wheat pastas.
Idaho Supreme potato pasta
Description: Here's another wheat- and gluten-free alternative to
the real McCoy. Potato-based pasta is a delightful,
high-complex-carbohydrate, high-fiber wheat alternative. The
Idaho Supreme pasta is made from organic potatoes to help
preserve the Vitamin C, calcium, and iron necessary for strong,
healthy running.
You'll Save: 20 calories per 2-ounce serving compared with
traditional pastas.
Advantage\10 pizza
Description: This delicious pizza alternative featuring grilled
vegetables was designed by low-fat health guru Dean Ornish. You
can practically eat the whole pie for the same number of calories
you get from one or two slices at your local pizzeria.
You'll Save: 250 calories and more than 20 grams of fat compared
with most restaurant or supermarket pizzas.
Barbara's Mashed Potatoes
Description: They're not a full meal, of course, but these
easy-to-prepare mashed potatoes in a box make a great,
high-carbohydrate, low-fat "comfort" dish to go with your meal.
Prepare them with nonfat milk, water, a little salt, and nonfat
margarine.
You'll Save: 50 calories and 6 grams of fat compared with a 1-cup
serving of traditional mashed potatoes.
DESSERT
It's normal and natural to want something sweet after dinner.
Especially if you've been training hard. Since chocolate has
recently been shown to contain powerful antioxidants, why not
indulge a little?
Haagen-Dazs chocolate sorbet
Description: Who ever thought Haagen-Dazs would make it into
this article? But it does. This richly chocolate frozen treat
manages to taste creamy without containing any fat at all. Sure, it's
sugary, but at least you're getting some protein and fiber as well.
You'll Save: 100 calories and 15 grams of fat per serving
compared with HD's chocolate fudge ice cream.
Chocolate Dreams cookies
Description: A meringue-type version of the traditional chocolate
chip cookie, this one lets you gobble down 5 cookies for under 30
calories and no fat. Bonus: You get two grams of protein as well.
You'll Save: At least 150 calories and 9 grams of fat compared with
just 3 regular chocolate chip cookies.
