Tip # 21 Cut the Fat

It’s true there are healthy and unhealthy fats. Healthy fats are found in fish, nuts, avocados, olives, peanut butter, and liquid vegetable oils. Unhealthy fats are found in animal products and packaged foods. However all fats supply a dense amount of calories – nine calories per gram of food – regardless of the “healthy” or “unhealthy” classification.
If you cut just cut just one 100-calories serving of fat out of your daily diet you’ll save over 36,500 calories per year! (That’s about 10 pounds’ worth of calories.)
Well the “unhealthy” fat I can cut, is ranch dressing! I love ranch dressing I cover my salad in it, and dip all kinds of foods in it. So I will start using less dressing. (Which could have more then one positive effect, that way I’ll eat less too…)
