During my last checkup, my doctor told me that I need to lose weight if I wanted to avoid serious health problems. That’s the reason why I enrolled myself again in a gym and decided to hire personal trainer to help me achieve my weight goals.
My trainer said I should avoid carbs during dinner and instead, replace it with any veggie salad so I could lose weight faster. Having grilled meat, especially fish, or seared shrimps along with it is okay – but not fried.
I was wondering before why salads are usually so expensive versus typical meat dishes. Here’s what I found out:
You can actually control the calorie of the veggie salad that you are making, that’s why home made salads is the favorite dish of anyone who wants to lose weight.
Homemade salads is still cheaper than eating the best salads in restaurants because you’re not paying for the chef’s skills and the markup on the imported ingredients.
I’m on my second week now of eating salad and I can definitely feel some changes. Of course, I also workout at the gym and exercise outdoors. You need to perspire and get rid of all the toxins in the body. Discipline is really needed to get rid of your excess fats in the body.
You are what you eat. Don’t just sit there! MOVE!
By the way, I made this blog because I’d be sharing some of my homemade salad recipes soon.
