Joy Bauer: Find Your Inner Skinny

– YOUR INNER SKINNY
Joy Bauer is a firm believer that dieting and losing weight doesn’t mean eating bland, cardboard food. Bauer’s diet contains a rich diversity of foods from all categories. There are even “fun” foods, like chocolate. “I guess we can call it a no-gimmick, low-fuss diet,” she says.
Many people who have used Bauer’s Your Inner Skinny have lost between 3 and 11 pounds the first week. She uses what she calls her “four steps to thin forever”, which is the other part of her diet strategy.
Step 1: Release. Strip away negative habits during the first week.
Step 2: Relearn. Reprogram you appetite and discover the joys of healthy eating.
Step 3: Reshape: Learn to create physical, psychological and nutritional wellness.
Step 4: Reveal. Find your maintenance groove – you don’t have to go back to the old you.
SKINNY EATS
Bauer says there are many tasty bites on the road to your inner skinny.
- Shrimp Cocktail. 8 calories each, shrimp are a delicious source of lean protein which helps rev your metabolism and keeps you feeling full for hours. Start a meal with a shrimp cocktail appetizer. A simple cocktail sauce recipe: 1 tablespoon ketchup and teaspoon horseradish, squeeze a lemon and splash of hot sauce.
- Fiery Chicken Salad. Adding a few dashes of fiery hot sauce to your food slows down your eating so you’re less likely to eat past the point of fullness. Whip up a chicken salad with diced chicken breast, 1 to to 2 teaspoons of reduced-fat mayo, hot sauce to taste and any diced veggies. Serve over lettuce and drink water.
- Pumpkin Pudding. This decadent, creamy pudding has 150 calories. Combine 6 ounces of nonfat vanilla yogurt with 1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree and a dash of cinnamon. The pumpkin bulks up the yogurt which is already a protein-rich food and adds fiber. This combination expands in your stomach, keeping you fuller longer.
- Vegetable Soup. By starting a meal with a bowl of broth-based vegetable soup, you can reduce your total calorie intake by 20 percent. The soup takes the edge off your hunger and fills you up.
- Cucumber-Tomato-Onion Salad. This is Joy’s low-cal version of the classic Mediterranean salad. Slice up one cucumber, one tomato, and half a red onion. Toss all with light vinaigrette or unlimited vinegar (balsamic or red) plus 1 teaspoon olive oil. The entire salad has less than 50 calories.
- Ginger Green Tea. Drinking a mug of tea is a calorie-free way to de-stress after a long day without falling prey to emotional eating. Also drinking green tea on a regular basis may give your metabolism a boost. Use fresh ginger root for an extra punch of flavor.
