How to Lose Weight Without Dieting & Get Healthier in the Process
Healthy Tips for Melon
Healthy Tip #1 - Pair berries with melon for a healthy and beautiful snack or dessert. Melon is nutritious and delicious, weighing in at a skinny 50 calories per cup. And what could look prettier than a nest of strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries nestled inside 1/2 of a small cantaloupe or honeydew melon?
Healthy Tip #2 - Create a healthy, light and delicious melon soup for summer or spring. Juice the melon, add a bit of Splenda and your favorite spices - such as a dash of ground cinnamon or nutmeg. A spoon of brown sugar goes exceptionally well with Summer Cantaloupe Soup.
Healthy Tip #3 - A tray of sliced melon wedges served with small wedges of cheese and whole grain crackers makes an awesome appetizer OR snack.
Healthy Tip #4 - A popular item at formal events - such as weddings, is ultra simple to make: Prosciutto & Melon. Simply wrap prosciutto around melon slices. Dust melon with mint before wrapping if desired to create a gourmet version.
Healthy Tip #5 - Melons of all varieties are fabulous in assisting the body in banishing pent-up water. If you've recently experienced water weight gain (which can register as much as 4 pounds or more on your weight scales in the form of false weight gain), try eating melon. Other foods which work fabulously well in dealing with water weight gain include: asparagus, beets, cranberries and boiled eggs.
