Welcome to fat loss blog. We are declaring war on fat and I would like you to join in my campaign. I have opened this blog to share some of the information I gather from different places and also to give you an opportunity to comment and criticize. I have a thick skin LOL. So you can let rip without much threaten of retaliation. I am continuing with my theme of providing some tips for managing your diets.

The cooking processes that you use will determine how well you are able to control certain elements such as fat within your diet. I know there is a temptation to fry. Fried foods tend to give off an attractive smell and tend to cook off very quickly. The fast food is almost always fried and it tends to create addictions especially among younger people. There is an alternative to deep frying by way of shallow frying or even dry frying. Baking also reduces the amount of oil in foods. The use of non-stick pans will enable you to avoid putting copious amounts of oil within your cooking program.

Certain foods do not need frying at all although many people make the mistake of frying them anyway in the misguided attempt to put taste over health. People who are strict diets cannot afford to take this attitude. You might want to consider boiling your vegetables or steaming them. There are a number of exciting spices that can be added to enhance the taste without massively raising the calorie count.
Herbs can be used to enhance the taste of seemingly plain foods. For example parsley can be eaten raw in order to provide essential nutrients such as vitamins but also to improve breath. Celery is another vegetable that can be eaten in a semi-raw stage. A diet full of raw vegetables is likely to provide much better nutrient value than one without.

If you feel that you are unable to enjoy your life without fat, you might want to consider substitutes. There is a wide variety available on the market these days. They have also been developed with various taste combinations so that you do not feel the monotony of the diet all the time. In order to choose the right low fat substitutes, you will need to have done your research so that you can understand the product that you are buying. Knowledge is power even when it comes to dieting.
