One
Food Weight Loss
Solutions
Although one-food
diets aren't a healthy
option for weight
loss, enjoying meals
that contain one-food-items
can be deliciously
filling and healthy!
One
food options also
keep food choices
at bay, therefore
assisting the dieter
locked in Diet Temptation
Mode. Here is our
favorite one food
meal:
Cheeseburger
prepared with real
cheese (70 calories)
and the leanest
hamburger at the
local market. We
keep our patties
very thin and add
lots of lettuce,
tomato, sliced onion
and sauteed mushrooms.
Opting
for mustard also
slashes calories.
We also use
a whole grain bun
and blot the meat
before topping it
with real cheese.
Blotting away
the excess oils
reduces the calories
in the cheeseburger.
Although
many dieters might
back away from a
cheeseburger, if
you think about
it - the cheeseburger
incorporates many
of the food groups
from the Official
Food Pyramid:
Bread
- Grain group.
Cheese
- Dairy group.
Lettuce,
Tomato, Mushrooms,
Onion - Vegetable
Group
Meat
- Protein Group.
One
large cheeseburger
prepared with extra
lean ground beef
as described above
contains about 400
calories.
Veggie patties are
an alternative for
the hamburger meat
and may be crisped
up by 'frying' in
non-stick butter
spray. Calories
in the cheeseburger
may be cut further
still when opting
for a smaller hamburger
bun.
Other
one-food meals include:
egg rolls and burritos.
