Looking to shed that bit of extra weight
you put on over the summer months? If you indulged in just a few too many adult
beverages while out and about at gatherings and campfires, not to mention
tasted almost all the summery treats you came across, as the fall sets in, you
might be looking to undo the damage.
Making some smart changes to your diet at
this point is a great way to get the weight loss process kick-started and
yourself back on track.
If you do like most people however and
start feasting on the comfort foods of the season, you aren’t going to be
seeing the results that you had hoped for.
Winter foods can be just as troublesome for
weight gain if you aren’t careful, so it’s imperative you understand how to go
about making your choices properly.
Let’s have a look at the best fall foods
that will help you boost your fat loss results.
Spaghetti
Squash
First up on our list is spaghetti squash.
If you’re a pasta lover who can’t bare the thought of going more than one week
or two without your beloved pasta dish, then this will be the perfect
substitute.
Spaghetti squash has a very similar look
and structure as angel hair pasta and can be used in exactly the same manner.
Best of all, it’s far lower in calories so
will be ideal when you’re trying to curb your intake.
Broth
Based Vegetable Soups
Moving along, a second terrific food to
choose this fall is broth based vegetable soups. These are an excellent choice
since they’re highly filling, highly nutrition, and very low in calories.
Prepare yours with some low-sodium chicken
or beef broth, as many vegetables as you can get in, a small amount of barley
for healthy carbs, and then a main protein source such as chicken or shrimp.
This will give you a very complete meal
that’s ready in minutes. Make a big batch and freeze some in individual serving
containers for the meal on the go.
Ground
Turkey Meatballs
Ground turkey meatballs are the next item
on the fall foods list that you should be eating on a regular basis. These are
excellent since they’re lower in fat and high in protein, so will work well
with just about any diet.
Prepare them as you would regular style
meatballs with egg whites and oats. Just
do be sure that you are using a lower calorie sauce after cooking them to serve
them up in a healthful manner.
Pumpkin
Finally, the last of the fall foods that
you should be eating to lighten your diet up is pumpkin. Pumpkin is great for
adding into baked goods such as muffins, for adding to oatmeal with a little
pumpkin spice for added flavor, or for adding into desserts as well. Canned
pumpkin is very low in calories and will add more moisture to your dishes, so
is the perfect selection when you need to shed fat fast.
So there you have some of the smartest
foods to eat this coming fall. If you’re wise with your choices, you should
have no problem shedding those few extra pounds gained during the summer
season.
