So every seems to rage on about Hungry Girl and talking about weight loss and since I am learning about weight loss and was curious, I went to check out some of her recipes. So far, I am not impressed.
So she is more focused on eating less calories than what is actually in the food. A lot of her recipes seemed to have an high amount of sugar and sodium. Also have a lot of processed food.
What we need is less process food, incorporate the right food to eat and learn about portion control.
For people that exercise a lot and trying to build muscles in order to get stronger and toned, you need to have protein. If you happen to be a vegetarian or vegan, you need to learn where to get that protein more naturally than. Even people who do eat meat need to know much meat to eat and which is better. It recommend to try to aim to eat more vegetables but still need a balance.
Just because something is low cal or a substitute, doesn't mean it is healthy. Best to seek advice from a professional nutritionist.
Someone like me hates vegetables, so I am trying find good recipes I can so I eat more vegetables yet have it so it is a tasty meal. Food is fuel for our bodies.
Why not have it healthy AND tasty? Do substitute health with just taste though or just for the calories.
With that said, I think I will have to pass on Hungry Girl. Sorry. Maybe there will be a good recipe once in awhile or maybe there are other recipes not so high in sugar or sodium; but it's not worth it to buy the recipe book though.
