Today is your fresh start!
Here are a few weight-loss tips & a recipe from our friend Hungry Girl:
"You can lose weight while eating large portions of the foods that you love," promises Lisa Lillien, creator of the wildly popular Hungry Girl cookbooks & emails. "My goal is to find easy ways to make the foods we love healthy." Lisa has kept off three sizes for over a decade. Lisa has many recipe-transforming tricks.
1. Scientists have proven that fiber-based gel creeps through our system at a snail's pace. As it goes, it blunts our appetites, reduces production of fat-storage hormones & actually releases fat burning compounds. Lisa has learned to sneak fiber in every way that she can.
2. Ingredients like apples, bananas, beans, broccoli, greens & oats, all happen to be top sources of viscous fiber. This is more powerful than regular fiber & can provide a great way to lose weight.
3. Many Hungry Girl followers use the Weight Watchers Plan, while others simply aim for 1300 fiber-rich calories each day. A free app like MyFitnessPal makes tracking easy.
Here is Lisa's recipe for Chunky Chicken Sausage soup. It looks delish in the picture, I intend to make it this week:
9oz fully cooked chicken sausage sliced into coins, 1 cup chopped onion, 1 tbs chopped garlic, 3 cups coarsely chopped spinach, 2 cups chicken broth, 2 cups chopped tomatoes, 1 15oz can cannellini beans , drained & rinsed, 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning.
Bring large pot to med-high heat, add sausage, onion & garlic. Cook until sausage has browned & onion has softened. Add spinach, tomatoes, broth beans & seasoning, increase heat to high, cook until spinach has wilted & onion is tender.
It looks so good! I will probably cook it a bit longer. Would be great w/parm cheese sprinkled on top!
FUN: What's the first movie that you remember seeing in a theatre?
