portion control, cutting calories, liquid diet, etc. etc. all of these weight loss remedies really make my head spin! not to throw another option into the mix, but here's one solution that's easy to maintain and doesn't require torturing: try the substitutes.
i know alot of people are weirded out by tofu or veggie burgers.. i was one of them! but before you write those off completely, try it.. you'll be saving yourself tons of calories and avoiding all that fat! i'll be honest though, the kinds that i've tried do not taste the same as a good 'ol beef burger, but if you're topping obsessed (like i am) anyway then you won't be missing out on flavor. i've had a portobello mushroom burger once and, i swear, it was better than any other meat burger i've ever tasted. for memorial day weekend, i even had the chance to try a beet burger.. i was a little nervous about it (since when was the last time i ate a beet? um... never?), but it was so. good. aaand now i want one, just great. try one for yourself!
other easy things you can try substituting would be:
vegenaise for mayonnaise
soy or almond milk for cow milk
