I love Mexican food, but I'm trying to lose weight. What food(s) are less fattening?

You can still do Mexican and stay on your diet. Spanish rice is really easy if you use brown rice (cooked) and low fat or fat free salsa. You can also do a "naked burrito" (which is just a burrito without a tortilla) with a grilled, seasoned chicken breast, tomato, lettuce, fat-free refried beans, fat free cheese, and fat free salsa. If you really want a tortilla though, you can alway look for Lawash bread, it's a really low carb/ low fat tortilla (great for wraps). And lots of veggies and water!I love Mexican food, but I'm trying to lose weight. What food(s) are less fattening?
Try the food pyramid.

Not 2 many calories, * but not 2 less.*

Don't dine on fast food often.

Don't only think about what's less fattening, because sometimes you'll forget about other nutritional needs. Balance it out...



1 cheeseburger = around 450 calories.

high in cholesterol.

fried heart attack.

But you can eat at least 2 a day.



1 lowfat yogurt. = 50 calories.

good calorie amount

You know some yogurts taste good... so it's a great alternative.

No offense to mexicans but, I think just about all of it is fatty, except taco salads, and platanos(plantains). I'm black and we cook basically the same, we use lots of grease and oil, and we fry almost everything, so all you can do is just eat less mexican food. And change your extras: when you have a borritto have a water, and a salad with it, instead of soda and rice. This stuff should help.
its not about what fattening or not, it's about whats healthy or not. you could chose between a low fat yogurt or a nutritious slice of beef. you would be 100% better of eating the beef becuase its a lot more nutrious filled with iron and protein, secondly humans weren't made to eat dairy, it was meat and vegetables, therefore this leads me to saying a Medditeranean diet is the best. The medditeranean have the lowest percentage of cardiovascular disease in the world, disease isn't as frequently seen as in the uk all due to there diet.I love Mexican food, but I'm trying to lose weight.

The best is to have a tea spoon of honey, daily in the morning once u get up from bed. this burns the extra fat. after some time, have atleast 2 glasses of water, to clear the acidity produced during the night



make sure the honey u purchase and use is natural and authentic. This method has worked for me and is really efficient. Ideally to see a noticible difference, it will take atleast 3 to 4 months...



also, I found this site useful for some tips for other healthy sources...



may be u could search and find it here...

Make taco salads with chicken and use salsa as the dressing. Never eat spanish rice because it is as fattening as steak. Switch to mexican seafood items but avoid the ones with cream sauce.
