Low-Fat Survival Techniques for Thriving in a High-Fat World

You're laughing, watching a goofy sitcom on TV, feeling relaxed, doing what you normally do, when suddenly you hear it. That double-fudge pecan chunk ice cream is calling your name. Never mind for the moment how it got in your freezer in the first place. It now knows you're listening, and it's making a pest of itself. What do you do?

You're hot, tired, irritable, and you have to make dinner. It's the last thing you feel like doing. As you're about to begin chopping veggies for a low-fat salad, your husband walks in and says, "What do you say we go out to dinner?" The catch? He wants to bop down to the fast-food burger joint on the corner. What do you do?

You've been following "Your Perfect Weight 52-Week Plan" for six months now. Lately, you've developed these annoying late-night cravings. You don't want to binge; you know a little nibble will satisfy you, but you really would like to keep the calories down to no more than 100. What do you do?

The answer is: Grab this book and refer to the tables that follow.

When chocolate ice cream calls your name, meet it head-on. Check out the "Never Say Never" table that begins on page 325 and see exactly what it is you're dealing with. The information may help you resist or even vow never to allow it in your freezer again. And if you decide to indulge, you'll have a pretty good idea of what you'll need to do tomorrow so that all that fat won't stay with you permanently.

If you find yourself heading out the door to a burger joint, refer to "Slimmer Selections from Fast-Food Restaurants," on page 334. To satisfy that craving for late-night nibbles, turn to page 346 and check out "One Hundred 100-Calorie Snacks."

Familiarize yourself with all these tables. The handy, nifty information can help you through the rough spots in your new low-fat lifestyle.
