Consider substituting mushrooms for beef in your favorite lasagna, sloppy joe, or chili recipes. Preliminary research from the Johns Hopkins Weight Management Center found that participants who ate mushroom lunch entrees downed 420 fewer calories on average than those who ate beef entrees. The fungi seem to be just as filling as beef but contain considerably fewer calories.
Weight management boils down to calorie intake. To achieve and maintain a healthy weight, the number of calories you consume should equal the number of calories that your body uses. If you’re trying to lose weight, the balance must shift so that the number of calories your body uses is higher than what you consume.
To lose weight, you must take in fewer calories than your body uses. Most people focus on their food intake, but what you drink could pack a large calorie punch too.
