Cutting Up Your DietOne of the best diet tips for weight loss is eating food slowly. So often the dieter feels famished and wolfs-down their meal without taking time to enjoy.   In turn, this results in the dieter feeling as if they haven't really eaten anything at all!   After all, it happened so quickly - a drive-by healthy meal. Another savvy diet tip that might help a dieter's meal travel a bit more slowly from the fork to the palate is cutting the food down into smaller bites.   For example, the following foods can be sliced very thinly, then cooked in cooking spray until tender for very few calories.   Adding herbs and spices will also change the flavor of these already-naturally good and healthy vegetables. - Potatoes with the skin: a small potato contains about 120 calories.   How thin can you slice your tator? Careful now! - Eggplant also works well when sliced thin, then drowned in egg white. Next, drag through bread crumbs seasoned with salt and pepper. Place into pan and cook using cooking spray. Add a slice of low fat mozzarella for 50 calories and a serving of marinara sauce for a delicious meal. - Mushrooms and onions can be trimmed down to size and work very well as a combo side dish. - Squash, particularly zucchini roasts well on the stovetop. - Carrots will cook much faster when sliced.   Add a spoon of brown sugar and a dash of ground cinnamon to the end result for a tasty, low calorie entree.
