Healthy Snack Options and Rapid Fat Loss


As a fitness expert people always ask me, "What snacks can I eat that will help me lose 'this'?" When they say "this" they are pointing to some part of their body that has a bit too much fat for their liking. (do you have one?)


You know me better than to think I will say, "Oh, don't worry, you can eat cookies, chips and candy all you want. Everyone has been lying to you. They actually make you thinner!" After all…doesn’t the packaging say FAT FREE? Red vines is my favorite for this one.


Seriously, people really do want me to tell them what they WANT to hear. Can’t do it.
But, fortunately, some people are serious when they ask that question. They really do want to know some healthy snack options for rapid fat loss.


So here's what I tell them:
· Raw almonds, walnuts or pecans (Not the roasted variety. And don't even think about the ones with sugar sprinkled on them!)
· Fruit or veggies cut up into sticks (Stay away from dipping them into things you know you shouldn't – learn to like them naturally)
· Hard-boiled eggs
· Low-fat cottage cheese
· Celery with a tbs of peanut or almond butter (again the purest most organic is best)
· Hummus (you can dip your veggies in the hummus)


Those are all great options. But realistically when that afternoon chocolate craving wont leave you alone and you really want to treat yourself…. you've gotta check out Prograde Cravers. You can find them here http://lefeverwellness.getprograde.com/cravers


They're made with 100% organic dark chocolate. Plus, they're only 180 calories and they're out-of-this-world delicious.


Seriously, this isn't your ordinary "tastes like chemicals or cardboard' nutritional bar and you know if I don’t like it I won’t share it with you.
Definitely check them out.
Have a healthy day,
Coach GregPS - It's best if you choose a variety of foods from the above list. But please realize, you CANNOT find Prograde Cravers in stores anywhere. They're only available through fitness pros such as myself. http://lefeverwellness.getprograde.com/cravers
