Introduction: Can salad help you lose weight? Can soy milk be drunk as water? When losing weight, many women have fallen into many weight loss misunderstandings in pursuit of quick weight loss. If you want to lose weight healthily, be wary of these shocking weight loss traps!
Q1: Do you like meat dishes that are both fat and lean? For example, braised pork, pork head meat, elbow meat, braised pork made from pork belly, fat lamb slices, fat beef slices, snowflake beef, etc.
Explanation: The main reason why meat is delicious and juicy is that the fat content is high enough. People love fat cows because they have enough fat. Snowflake beef looks like lean meat, but it is actually covered with white fat patterns inside. It’s just that the fat is relatively hidden and is more closely combined with the lean meat. It cannot change its original appearance of being high in fat. The same reason why you only like pork ribs when eating pork, because ribs are "lean meat" with a higher fat content. When eating chicken, I only like chicken wings and don’t like other parts of the meat. This is also because chicken wings have a higher fat content.
Q2: Do you like to eat various fried, stir-fried, griddle, dry-roasted, and braised dishes?
Explanation: There are many dishes that need to be fried or over-oiled, including crispy chicken, crispy duck, fried steak, fried chicken nuggets, fried meatballs, fried chicken wings, dry-fried tenderloin, dry-fried shrimp, etc. . Braised, sweet and sour, and stir-fried dishes often need to be fried first, such as braised fish, squirrel fish, sweet and sour pork ribs, sweet and sour pork loin, stir-fried beans, etc. Dishes such as roasted eggplant and ground fresh vegetables require oil, and the fat content can be as high as more than 15%, while griddle-pot dishes are almost always soaked in a large amount of oil.
Q3: Do you like to eat meat-filled foods? Including meat stuffed buns, meat dumplings, meat pies, meatballs, tofu stuffed with meat, various meat stuffed dishes, etc.
Explanation: If you want to make the meat filling soft and fragrant, you usually need to add 20~30% fat to achieve the effect. Even if it is fish filling, fatty pork should be added to improve the taste and prevent it from tasting too spicy. As for the crab meatballs, the fat content is even higher. There are various kinds of meat wrapped in vegetable leaves, meat stuffed with green peppers, meat stuffed in eggplant boxes, meat stuffed with tofu, etc. The meat fillings are usually very fatty.
Q4: Eat refueling staple food? Including fried dough sticks, fried cakes, sesame balls, flying cakes, fried fried cakes, green onion cakes, thousand-layer cakes, fire-roasted cakes, fried cakes, and various pastries.
Explanation: Without enough oil, colorful staples appear unattractive. Even if it is not fried, you still need to add a lot of fat when kneading the dough to achieve a layered and soft effect. If you eat this kind of staple food, you will inevitably eat a lot of fat.
Q5: Are you used to putting more oil when cooking, but the dishes are always covered with oil?
Explanation: Residents in many areas, even when frying vegetables, must put at least one ounce of oil. The vegetables are literally soaked in oil, and they even call it "fried". Even when eating blanched or cold dishes, a large amount of "bright oil" or red oil is poured on top to improve the appearance. While eating the vegetables, a considerable amount of oil sticks to the surface of the vegetables and is put into the mouth together.
Q6: Do you like to eat sausages, sausages, grilled sausages, kebabs and the like?
Explanation: These foods all contain fat, and there is a lot of fat in them. Whether you are making sausages or kebabs, you should usually add one-third of the fat, otherwise the texture will be too hard; when making sausages, chicken, etc., you should also add a certain proportion of minced fat, usually The fat content is between 20~30%.
Q7: Do you like to use cheese, butter and cream to make various snacks, soups and delicacies?
Explanation: The ratio of protein and fat in milk is 1:1, but cheese is usually 1:2. So, unless it's low-fat cheese, there's really a lot of fat in it. As for butter, it is simply more than 80% fat, and anhydrous butter is more than 95%. Cream contains water, but apart from the water, most of the content is fat. If you often use them to make delicious food, of course, a lot of fat will be introduced, so the quantity and frequency need to be controlled.
Q8: Do you like fried instant noodles, frozen dumplings and other fast foods?
Explanation: Speaking of fried instant noodles, everyone knows that it is a high-fat food, and the fat content is usually between 16 and 22%. If you eat rice, steamed buns, and noodles, even if they are paired with meat and vegetable dishes, they usually will not have such a high fat content.
The fat content of quick-frozen dumplings is related to the meat filling. You should carefully check the fat content on the packaging bag. It ranges from 8% to 25%. After many dumplings are cooked, a thick layer of oil will appear on the top, and the oil will solidify when exposed to cold, indicating that the saturated fat content is considerable.
Q9: Do you like eating vegetables mixed with salad dressing, rice rolls and sandwiches with salad dressing?
Explanation: Salad dressing is actually very high in fat. If there is no special indication of low-fat, the fat content is usually between 40 and 80%. Because the amount of raw vegetables that can be mixed with a spoonful of salad dressing is very small, if calculated based on eating half a catty of vegetables, the fat content of salad dressing is higher than the fat content of stir-fried vegetables. Some women like to use salad dressing on everything, including bread and rice rolls. As a result, they eat more fat. An example is some of the Japanese seaweed rice rolls currently popular among urban women, which include salad dressing, deep-fried purple potatoes, soft-shell crabs, etc., and are extremely high in fat.
Q10: I like to drink thick white soup and find it particularly nourishing. How about two bowls with each meal?
Explanation: Thick white fish soup, broth, bone soup, etc. actually contain much more fat than clear soup. The reason why the soup turns milky white is that the fat and animal protein dissolved in the soup emulsify, causing many tiny oil droplets to disperse in the water, resulting in a milky white appearance due to optical effects. Many new mothers gain weight after childbirth, largely thanks to these thick white soups.
Q11: Do you like to use bone broth, broth or shabu-shabu soup with a lot of oil to cook vegetables?
Explanation: Using vegetables to absorb floating oil is a way to make delicious food, but the amount of floating oil must also be controlled. Because vegetables have a strong ability to absorb oil, even if there are dozens of grams of oil, 300 grams of vegetables can absorb them cleanly. But this will eat up all the fat without missing a beat. Especially soups made from fattened cattle or lambs are very high in saturated fat. It is best to remove most of the floating oil before using it for cooking.
Q12: Do you like peanut butter, chocolate spread, sweet chocolate, white chocolate, etc.?
Explanation: These spreads are delicious, but very, very high in calories, often exceeding 40% fat. There is only 5% protein in chocolate, and the rest is fat except for sugar. Whether it is cocoa butter from cocoa beans, fat from butter, or hydrogenated vegetable oil, it can be turned into body fat. Especially sweet chocolate, with a lot of fat and a lot of sugar, don't expect them to have any health effects.
Q13: Do you like biscuits, cookies, potato chips, crispy rice, pie and other high-fat snacks?
Explanation: These are all classic fattening foods, a combination of large amounts of refined white starch, sugar and fat. Take a closer look at the fat content on the packaging and don’t be surprised. Even biscuits claiming to be high in fiber or non-fried potato chips cannot change the fact that they are high in calories and fat. The key is that they have too little water and too much dry food. They don't feel full when eaten, making people feel like they haven't eaten much, but they can actually increase fat intake. Although spicy strips and the like contain protein, their fat content is too high, so they still need to be eaten.
Q14: Do you particularly like to eat various snack breads, butter breads, shortbreads, pizzas, etc.?
Explanation: These are baked goods that contain a lot of fat. If you have never made bread before, buy a bread machine and try it once. To make bread soft, crispy and fragrant, it cannot be achieved without adding a lot of fat. Low-fat bread is bound to taste dry and hard. Without the help of fatty cheese, pizza will not taste satisfactory. So it’s not okay to eat this kind of thing casually every day.
Q15: Do you like eating nuts and can’t stop eating them?
Explanation: Except for ginkgo and chestnuts, most nuts and oil seeds are high-fat foods. The fat content starts at 40% and can reach up to more than 70%. It’s not surprising to say that it was originally used to extract oil. For example, peanuts, sunflower seeds, watermelon seeds, walnuts, pecans, hazelnuts, sweet almonds, almonds, macadamia nuts, cashew nuts, torreya nuts, abalone nuts, etc. are all like this. It is recommended to take *** a handful every day.
Q16: When making soy milk, do you often put a lot of walnuts, peanuts, etc. and drink it as water?
Explanation: Many people think that nut soy milk is very healthy. When making soy milk, they add a large amount of high-fat nuts such as walnuts, almonds and sesame seeds, and then drink several cups of thick milk every day. The nut soy milk made in this way does taste delicious, but it also has a high fat content. Just drink one cup a day. Drinking too much will also bring excess fat, thereby making you gain weight.
Q17: Do you like to drink coffee drinks with sugar and milk, cup after cup?
Explanation: Coffee itself will not make you fat, but the things added to the coffee may not. Coffee drinks such as cappuccino and latte require a lot of high-fat milk or cream. When most people drink it, they add one or two packets of powdered sugar, which adds even more calories. Therefore, the simple way is to drink coffee directly with pure milk, without adding sugar, cream or creamer.
Q18: Do you like fat-containing desserts such as ice cream, mousse, coffee panna cotta, and fruit panna cotta?
Explanation: The higher the fat content of ice cream, the richer and mellow the taste. So people who love high-end ice cream will always eat a lot of sugar and saturated fat. Products such as mousse and panna cotta look like yogurt and are expensive. In fact, their nutritional value is much worse than that of yogurt, with very little protein and high fat. Just look at the nutrition facts on the package and their truth will be immediately apparent.
