The Secrets of Losing Weight - and Enjoying Delicious Food Every Day
This might surprise you, but yes, you can absolutely enjoy a juicy grilled steak when the craving hits—and even pair it with a glass of delightful red wine or a beer! The key is knowing which cuts to choose since different cuts contain varying amounts of calories. Luckily, the most popular cuts are often the ones with the lowest calorie counts, so that’s fantastic news!
Of course, controlling cravings is key to any weight loss success - that's where our Stop Cravings Chromium helps by balancing blood sugar and reducing those urges to snack."
Just to be clear, we’re talking about cuts of beef, but it’s not limited to just beef. Lean cuts from pork, like tenderloin or loin chops, and lean cuts from lamb, like leg or shoulder, are also great options. The most tender cut of beef is the beef tenderloin. This cut is so lean that you can indulge in a big steak without feeling guilty while you savor it, or remorseful the next day. Other great options for low-calorie steaks include rump steak and striploin steak. Admittedly, the striploin, also known as a New York strip, has slightly more calories than the others, but it’s still nothing to worry about.
My point is there’s a lot of confusion and misconceptions about what you can eat and drink while trying to lose weight or maintain your ideal weight. This often stems from the common belief that “if it’s good, it must be bad.” But that’s not always true! Take a look at the people living around the Mediterranean. The French, Spanish, Italians, and Greeks enjoy fantastic food every day, yet you rarely see an overweight person. What’s their secret?
Basically, they grill or fry meat, fish, or chicken loaded with spices and serve it alongside a green salad or grilled veggies with some potatoes, rice, or bread. It’s a tasty and satisfying meal that doesn’t rack up a lot of calories—so go ahead, enjoy yourself!
While those around the Mediterranean are buying fresh, lean meat, chicken, or fish and cooking it up, many of us might opt for ready-made meals from the supermarket or order takeout like pizzas, burgers, or curries, which can be loaded with oils and fats.
It's no surprise that eating fatty foods can lead to weight gain, while choosing lean meats—whether it’s beef, pork, or lamb—helps you stay lean. It really is that simple! And lean doesn’t mean boring or tasteless food—not at all!
