Wedding Weight Loss Tips For Snacking

Let's talk about wedding weight loss tips and snacking. Some brides-to-be have a nervous stomach because of the stress of planning a wedding. They don't want to eat.

Others want to combat the stress by eating (Hello!) so I will list some foods that will help you get a thin bridal waist. Remember that moderation is the key to foods.

Wedding weight loss tips involve common sense and controlled eating. I know the control is hard from personal experience. Just keep telling yourself "Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels." Especially for your wedding day! Write it on a piece of paper and stick it on your refrigerator with a magnet. Tape another one in your pantry.

Snack foods that include protein and fiber, along with monounsaturated fat are ideal.

Some healthy snacks are:

Carrot sticks

String cheese

Small handful of cubed cheese

10-15 almonds

Celery sticks

Sliced apples

Low-fat thinly sliced chicken or turkey with celery sticks

Thinly sliced swiss cheese with apple slices

Air-popped or low-fat microwave popcorn

Celery sticks stuffed with a spoonful of peanut butter

Plain yogurt with a spoonful of peanut butter stirred in it

Plain yogurt with sliced strawberries or blueberries

More tips:

Don't drink fruit juices even though they are healthy. They add a lot of unnecessary calories. Drink water instead. Squeeze a little lemon or lime into the water for flavor but no sugar.

Don't eat dried fruits even though they are promoted as healthy. They are so high in calorie content and you tend to eat a ton of them. Why? Because the filling liquid has been removed. Eat fresh fruit instead because it is more filling.

Drink an eight ounce glass of vegetable juice such as tomato or V-8. These juices are low in calories and are filling. If they are too thick for your taste, add some water to them. That is what I do.
