5. Use low-fat cooking methods like boiling or steaming.
If you boil or steam food, you avoid the chemicals created by high temperatures and cut out extra fat, which helps you stay at a healthy weight.
6. Measure your ingredients accurately.
Eating the correct serving size of meat and carbohydrates like pasta and rice keeps calorie levels down. Make sure you also measure ingredients like oil and salt. It’s easy to throw in too much and wind up eating too much fat or sodium.
