Research keeps evolving to show us just how certain nutrients play very important roles in the body. There are people that promote fat for weight loss and those that fear and shun fat for weight loss. If you want to fit into your "skinny jeans" then I suggest you don't fear fat.
I am here to tell you that there are certain fats that actually help with weight loss. This doesn't mean you should be eating a high fat diet. It is does mean that you shouldn't fear fat if you are trying to lose weight. If you do you could be slowing down your weight loss progress.
The first fat that you should incorporate into your diet is Coconut oil. Most of the fats you eat circulate around in the body until you body absorbs them and stores them as fat or maybe uses some it for energy.
Coconut oil behaves differently in the body. Coconut oil is a medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) that is very common in foods. Instead of circulating around the blood stream like other fats MCTs go into the liver where they are utilized for energy. Your body also requires more calories to digest MCTs, which is a good thing because your goal is to burn as many calories as possible.
Some ways to use Coconut Oil is to put it on breads instead of using butter. You could saut?ith it or melt it on veggies for flavoring. It is a saturated fat though so don't over consume this fat or you might see your triglyceride and cholesterol levels rise.
Nut Butter which is an unsatruated fat is the other fat that can help you get into those skinny jeans. Some research is showing that those who eat nut butters often time weigh less than those who avoid it. Nut butter contains protein, fat and fiber which researchers believe helps keep you full so overall you eat less food.
This is why almonds are promoted by health professionals because they provide lean protein, healthy unsaturated fats, and fiber. Almonds are very filling and make a great healthy snack when you have to eat on the run. I highly recommend keeping some natural unroasted almonds on hand at all times.
Anyways back to Nut Butter.
You can use Nut Butter in a variety of ways. Nut Butter can be used as a dipping sauce or or course use it as a spread on breads or muffins. You could flavor noodles or vegetables with it as well. Look for natural versions of Nut Butter so that you aren't consuming added oils or hydrogenated fats.
I suggest you give these unique fats a try with your meals and not only add some variety to your meals, but get you closer to fitting into those skinny jeans.
