OC Personal Fitness: Add more fiber, less other calories!

Posted by JungleFitness on July 15, 2011 at 1:45 pm.

Add fiber to your meals to lose weight! We may have mentioned fiber before because it is one of the nutritious foods that is needed for the diet-table. High fiber foods lower risk of cancer, heart attack, blood pressure and also cut the calories we consume every day.

(Women’s Health)—

At Breakfast

Spice up your eggs. One-third of a cup of chopped onion and one clove of garlic will add 1 g of fiber to scrambled eggs. Or fold the eggs omelette-style over 1/2 cup of cooked broccoli for an additional 2 g.

Grab an Asian pear. Similar in taste to other pears, the red-colored Asian variety has an apple-like crispness and shape, and it delivers significantly more fiber — 4 g per pear.

At Lunch
Don’t like whole wheat? Make your sandwiches with rye bread. One slice has almost 2 g fiber — twice the amount found in white bread.

Personal Fitness OC-Newport Beach
Shower your pizza with oregano or basil. A teaspoon of either spice adds 1 g of fiber. Order it with mushrooms and you’ll get 1 g more.

At Dinner
Swap a sweet potato for your standard spud. Sweet potatoes have 2 g more fiber per tuber than the typical Idaho variety. Not a fan? At least eat the skin of the regular potato — it alone has 1 g of fiber.

Personal Fitness OC- Long Beach

Cook broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots, and you’ll take in 3 to 5 g of fiber per serving, as much as twice what you’ll get if you eat them raw. (Heat makes fiber more available.

At Dessert
Top a bowl of yogurt with sliced fresh berries in lieu of syrup. One-half cup of raspberries provides 4 g of fiber; strawberries and blueberries pack half that amount.

Convenient items that you can purchase at a grocery store. Just remember to add it to your meal! More fiber means less calories of other junk.
