And sugar and processed foods.
I have spent years going up and down. Got my weight down to "too thin" back 25 years ago. Only way i could keep it there was by smoking and starving and taking too many laxatives. That wasn't a good thing.
Now, I eat veggies, good proteins, some fruit, a few seeds and nuts, and healthy fats (natural stuff like avocados, olive oil, butter, lard, tallow,etc.) . Lost weight, and I found that I get full quick eating a reasonable amount of food.
But this is just my personal experience. I spent years being hungry all the time. Now, it's nice to feel full.
Fresh squeezed lime is great on any white fish, and it’s great on chicken, too.
In a pinch, I’ll add some to canned chicken soup; this adds some healthy flavor to the generally-bland low-sodium variety.
I mix salsa with canned tuna for a quick meal, and dijon-style mustard replaces mayo for a spicy tuna or chicken salad.
It’s a bit of a splurge, but I brush maple syrup on salmon steaks and either grill, or put the salmon in a Corningware dish and bake in a pre-heated 350-degree oven..when the fish begins to flake it’s done.
Hope these little recipes help..!!
