As I’ve written a lot recently, I’ve been on a major campaign (I won’t call it a New Year’s Resolution Diet) to lose those nagging extra pounds. I’ve lost 10 so far, thank God!<\/p>\n
I do believe in eating something every 2-3 hours, as I’ve written in my book, “The Joy of Weight Loss.”<\/p>\n
What to eat? Certainly NOT carbs! A little protein, some vegetables are best, I’ve found.<\/p>\n
Celery is too stringy and gets between my teeth, although I do love the crunch. Carrots: too sweet and carroty to eat much of.<\/p>\n
Here’s my secret snack – Belgian endive. It has almost no calories, no fat, is crunchy and a vegetable.<\/p>\n
I like a little humus on the endive. Or a tiny bit of peanut butter (no more than 2 tablespoons a day, as that’s a serving of protein, and it’s really easy to eat way too much). Almond butter is great, too. Low-fat, low-calorie salad dressing, too is good, but not the kind with chemicals and preservative, or sugars.<\/p>\n
What’s a healthy snack for you? Please comment below!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
