I couldn’t believe this at first, when I read about it in Shape magazine, August 2010 issue.

A study in Diabetes Care showed that people who got 23% of their daily calories from monosaturated fat had 5 pounds less belly fat than people who ate more carbs and less fat than them.

Avocados are rich in monosaturated fat.

Wanna reduce belly fat?
Instead of mayonnaise or cheese, use avocado.

You know how fat gathers in the middle as you get older?

Switch to monosaturated fat to reverse that trend.

A word of caution though. Fat is still fat and too much of it will make you gain weight.

Everything in moderation. Half an avocado a day (115 calories 10 grams of fat) should suffice.

After a fairly recent health scare, I started running to lose the excess weight I'd gained with my first pregnancy. 12 years after giving birth to my first child, I finally reached a healthy weight. I'm a foodie with a sweet tooth and a huge appetite, hence maintaining a reasonably healthy weight is a challenge. It involves a daily effort and a permanent switch to a healthy lifestyle. I'm using this blog to keep myself in check and to share my experiences with others who too struggle with weight management.
