End the Day on a Healthy Note
End your day with a healthy, moderately-sized meal-it can help you reduce fat and even recover from your activity and exercise throughout the day.
Opt for lean protein to keep you feeling satisfied longer and carbs that are low-glycemic (to keep blood sugar levels more steady). Aim for portion sizes that help you feel just full enough.
Did You Know?
- Substitute a cup of whole wheat pasta for a cup of white rice, and you'll feel full for 30 more minutes.
- Get a whopping two more hours of fullness when you choose a potato over 1/3 cup french fries.
