Lose Weight by Eating More

Gotta love those Top Ten Lists. My brother forwarded me this one from Men's Health about how to lose weight (fat) and increase muscle mass. A diet of protein and vegetables is a pretty easy way to avoid the junk that this list points out. Barry's rule has been sabotaged in my own house by gifts of cookies and boxes of candy. If you don't have it in your house, you don't eat it. There are lots of other interesting lists on the left hand side of the page you can check out if you want to spend even more time on the Internet than you already do.

Barry's Rule Revisited

From SparkPeople.com:

"Healthy snack choices start at the grocery store. That'’s where the decision is made to eat healthy snacks, not at the office or on the coach, but at the grocery."

I think that must have been written by someone English. "Coach" means "bus" over there.

In July I mentioned my friend, Barry, and how he and his family don't buy junk food at the store because then they would eat it. So, when you go to the grocery store, don't buy things you wish to avoid eating.

SparkPeople has a list of some healthy snacks if you follow the above link. They're the usual suggestions of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
