Hey eating one quater of an entire cucumber is only 11 calories and half a carrot is about 25-30 calories.
Eating veggies while cooking may well save her 100+ calories which can lead to a loss of a little more than a half pound of fat in one week!
Another similar trick is to chew gum if you are a stove-top nibbler. However, I find that, for me, gum makes me hungry, so I can't use this tip.
Take it from me, this veggie trick will not only simply help trim the waist-line but it will also help to acquire all those phytochemicals and fresh vitamins and minerals most of us forget to include in our diet.
