No-Fat Food Trap
When you go to the store you see a million products that say,
Low-fat, no-fat, and these words seem so attractive to a
person, they make you feel as if you can eat these foods and
not have to worry about dieting ever again. You let your
mind drift as you eat a whole box of low-fat cookies, ahhh
life is wonderful. However, you do that for a few days
in a row and you step on the scale and you won't be pleasantly
surprised!!
When foods say no-fat, or low-fat, most of them substitute
high amounts of sugar to make the product still taste good.
Sugar easily converts to fat, so you're really not really
gaining any benefit from eating this sugar loaded fat free
treats. Also, fat makes you feel full, so when you eat
fat free foods, you don't feel as full and end up eating more
of the fat free foods to compensate. There are some good
low fat products, but make sure you check out the labels, read
the sugar amounts, and always remember, these foods still have
calories, if your body doesn't burn up these calories it just
will get turned to fat.
