Losing Weight With a Low-Fat Diet | Natural Holistic Health Blog

Trying to cut out all fat everywhere in every food is not realistic. So, set realistic goals and make a plan accordingly.

If you are going to embark on a low-fat diet and lose weight, it helps to have some tips and tricks for success.

It?s pretty hard to have long-term success if you are just ?white knuckling it? regarding fat in your diet.

If you don?t have a diet plan besides just ?I need to cut back on fat,? then you are not setting yourself up for success.

Here are some tips on how you can implement a low-fat, weight-loss diet and be successful:

1. Make a realistic plan

As noted above, a plan is essential if you want to stick with your diet and reach your goals. Just a vague ?I really shouldn?t be eating that? notion won?t cut it. It also won?t work if you are too strict with yourself right off the bat.

Trying to cut out all fat everywhere in every food is not realistic. So, set realistic goals and make a plan accordingly.

Here are some things to keep in mind when you make your plan:

* Some fat is okay, maybe even essential, for your health. Cutting out all fat is probably not a good idea health-wise or goal-wise.

* Decide on exceptions ahead of time. Don?t wait until the slice of fudge cake is in front of you before deciding if you are going to go ahead and make an exception and splurge. You might decide, for example, that you only eat cake at birthday celebrations and only eat hot dogs on Memorial Day. Reasonable exceptions are understandable and help make your diet doable.

* Remind yourself that your low-fat diet is pretty much permanent. The notion of going on a diet and then off of a diet may result in your weight going up and down. Adopt these low-fat goals as a lifestyle.

2. Gather recipes

Sometimes, making new foods that you don?t associate with high fat content and flavor can really help. Collect a series of low-fat recipes that can become family favorites.

This also gives you somewhere to turn when you need to think of a low-fat meal quickly. It can be easy to revert to the old, high-fat recipes when you are in a hurry or just frustrated with trying to lighten up existing ones.

3. Substitutes

Implement substitutes for high-fat foods and keep those as pantry staples instead of the high-fat ones.

Replace butter with healthy fats like safflower oil and fat substitutes like flax meal, for example. Or use strained, fat-free yogurt instead of sour cream. You can get ?Greek style? fat-free yogurt if you don?t want to strain your own.

4. Natural Remedies
