Reduce the sauce and reduce the weight

Most sauces are loaded with exorbitant amounts of sugar, fat and calories – both of which can add to weight gain if overdone. Keep a lookout for fat free or low sugar sauces and consider cutting down on portion size if you tend to overdo the sauces.

Takeaways and meals consumed at restaurants are usually served with sauces or offer the consumer an option to order sauces. Next time you are eating out or buying food to take away, try to avoid purchasing any sauce. You will be amazed at how many calories you are saving yourself from, not forgetting the cost saving too.

Opt to make yourself a healthy salsa instead. Use fresh tomatoes and other ingredients and enjoy the nutrient benefits as well as weight loss.
