Kitchen - Keep It Stocked and Ready

When you're trying to lose weight, it's helpful to have your kitchen stocked and ready.

Clearing out your kitchen and making room for nutritious foods has a dual purpose. One, it removes the temptation of those calorie-laden foods. Two, it lays the foundation for healthy eating. Some tips:

• Freezer. Keep your freezer stocked with frozen fruits and vegetables and high-protein, low-fat snacks like edamame.
  
• Fridge. Plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, low-fat dairy (or dairy substitutes), lean protein, and a water filtering pitcher.
• Pantry. Whole grains, salt-free mixes, healthy oils, and healthy snacks like low-fat popcorn.
