Fat 2 Fit Show #46 – Cooking for Weight Loss
Written on October 31, 2008 – 12:17 am | by Russ Turley
When you cook a meal at home, what do you do to ensure that it’s a healthy meal?
How do you make sure that it’s low calorie?
On this episode, we discuss cooking with weight loss in mind. The topics include what types of foods to choose, how to cook your food, what kitchen equipment to cook with and portion sizes. These are all things to think about when cooking for weight loss.
Teresa calls in to the voice mail line issuing us a food challenge. She is looking for a lunch that she can take along on business trips instead of eating the usual lunch fare of salads, wraps and sandwiches. I don’t know if we rose to the challenge, but maybe you can give your opinion in the comments. John wrote in asking about trimming just 200 calories off his daily intake. By doing this he’s looking to lose 25 lbs.
In the Web Report this week, Jeff has an article on what it takes to be “effortlessly thin”. Russ is getting an iPhone and finds a small write up on an application called Weightbot that records your weight. Look for a review of this application soon.

Hi Guys,
You can stick to simple cooking stuffs like the Vegetaraian diets like the carrots, tomato,cauliflower. Keep Your self away from Junk stuffs like the Colas , pizzas & the Burgers.
Hope it Helps,
