11.Finger-Licking Fried Chicken
A bucket of fried chicken is an easy way to feed a crowd, but it can wreak havoc on your waistline and arteries. So forgo fried chicken and toss boneless, skinless chicken breasts on the grill, instead. Marinades and spice rubs add flavor to these quick-cooking cuts of poultry. The nutritional differences are striking.
Skinless chicken breast (3.5 oz): 167 calories, 7 g fat
Breaded, fried chicken breast: 360 calories, 21 g fat.
12.Eat better: Save Room for Dessert
You can still satisfy that sweet tooth without loading on extra calories. Most restaurants may offer a fresh fruit option. Pick a sherbet over ice cream. Sponge cake is also a great choice. Also be aware that fruit smoothies may contain a lot of sugar.
