10 Easy Ways To Cut 100 Calories Without Realizing It

How to reduce your diet? What can replace fried potatoes? Fresh berries instead of jam and jam. Cauliflower puree. Greek yogurt instead of mashed potatoes.

"Sleight of hand and no fraud." We offer you 10 simple ways to reduce your diet by 100-200 kilocalories.

1. Spicy sauce instead of butter and cheese for eggs

Many of us prefer eggs for breakfast: boiled or omelet. If it is a boiled egg, then we often use it with butter, hard or processed cheese, which are very high in calories.

Instead of fatty butter and cheese, use some spicy sauce that goes well with eggs.

2. Fresh berries instead of jam and jam

Do you like toast with jam or jam? You probably know that they are quite high in calories due to their high sugar content. It will be more useful if you use berries fresh, mashed or in the form of jelly (which is much lower in calories than jam).

3. We exchange latte for espresso

Let's trade those big latte glasses for small, elegant espresso cups. The composition of latte includes milk, milk foam and cream, which greatly increases its calorie content. In addition, you will need more sugar for a latte, as its volume is much larger than that of espresso or Turkish coffee.

4. Mustard instead of mayonnaise or ketchup

Estimate the difference: in the portion of mayonnaise that you put on a sandwich, about 100 kilocalories, while in mustard - less than 10! Mustard will add piquancy to the sandwich and "save" your body from extra 90-100 calories!

5. Baked potatoes instead of fried

And did you know that potatoes themselves are not very high in calories. 100 g contains 70-75 kcal. But here's what happens when you fry it. Vegetable oil is absorbed into potatoes, which increases its calorie content by 3 times! Instead of 75 kilocalories, you get all 200! Therefore, it is better to bake potatoes.

 

6. Try mashed cauliflower

You can reduce your diet by 100-150 kilocalories if you use mashed cauliflower instead of mashed potatoes. At the same time, it tastes almost the same as potato.

7. Use an oil sprayer

1 tablespoon of vegetable oil has as many as 120 kilocalories! If you are a fan of liberally pouring olive oil on a salad, then know that this way you significantly increase the calorie content of the salad. In order not to overdo it with oil, use a special sprayer. If you don't have one, then for dressing, prepare a mixture of lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of olive oil.

8. Accustom yourself to tea without sugar

If you persevere and drink tea without sugar for 10-15 days, then you will no longer want to sweeten the tea yourself. This is how you will discover the true taste of tea, and also save yourself from a few teaspoons of sugar.

9. Greek yogurt instead of sour cream

If you like dressing salads and first dishes with sour cream, you can try to replace it with Greek yogurt. Its taste is almost the same as sour cream, but its calorie content is 40-50% lower.

10. Whole grain bread instead of white bread

The calorie content of whole grain bread is not much lower than that of ordinary white bread made from high-grade flour. However, you will eat much less whole grain bread than white bread. Thus, you can reduce your diet by more than 100 kilocalories.
