10 Low-Cost Ways to Lose Fat
08:38You don't have to break the bank to get in shape! We've got ten wallet-friendly ways to help you reach your goals!
Unlike a good strawberry, being fit is always in season, and so is being thrifty. So, to bring the fit and thrift together, Oxygen shares the wealth on stretching your fat-loss dollars further. Don’t be tempted to drive-through just because it’s cheaper, and don’t give up working out because gym fees have you floored – there is always a way to stick to your fat-loss goals, even during the toughest times.
- Learn what’s in this season. Buy in-season fruits and veggies and stop paying for food that needs to ripen on a truck for days before it gets to you. To save even more money, get the best fruits and veggies that are ripe for the picking: Visit buylocalfood.com to find a farm near you.
- Get cooperative. Food co-ops or community supported agriculture groups are blossoming all over the country. Paired with local farms, communities come together to support local growers and reap the benefits of fresh produce, delivered to your door, for a great price. Visit nal.usda.gov for information on a CSA in your neighborhood.
- Portions, portions. Make your groceries last longer while whittling your waistline. For example, split a large eight-ounce cut of lean protein into two four-ounce portions. Also, downsize that large bowl of whole-grain pasta or brown rice – all you need is half a cup, cooked.
