With several diets on the market, many people still turn to a traditional low fat or fat free diet because it gives a larger variety of food choices, and also includes carbohydrates and sugars. Personally, I have seen this diet work over time, however, it takes a dedicated person to switch their taste buds and adjust the aweful tastes of some labeled fat-free foods. The fact of the matter is, if a person cannot bear the taste of a fat free ranch dressing, chances are, they won't stomach it and relapse by eating a tablespoon of regular ranch which contains over 10 grams of fat. In order for this type of diet to be successful, one must learn how to make low fat foods taste delicious.

BUTTER

If you are overweight, chances are that you are a butter lover. You cook everything in butter and often enjoy fried foods on a daily basis. An immediate change in your diet must include ridding yourself from this fatty product. The key to doing this is to find a butter substitute that will actually taste like your normal brand. Unfortunately, you will have to throw your sticks of blue bonnet in the garbage, because the only sensible alternative is a spray butter. From my own experiences, I have found that the "I can't believe it's not butter" spray-brand provides the same taste and textures as regular butter. Instead of frying your eggs in a mound of grease, spray a few rounds of butter and you will achieve the same tastes without numerous grams of fat.

Takeaways
  • Enjoy the same foods by replacing ingredients
  • If it tastes aweful, simply don't eat it
  • Plan ahead, develop a menu, and you will succeed
