Here's a list of New Year Food Resolutions to kickstart your new year with a slender body. =)

No.1: If your food has a label, don't eat it. Spend less time reading the fine print for calories and grams of fat by eating stuff that has no label. Whole fruits,vegetables, grains and food that haven't been chemically processed have no labels.

No.2: When you are in doubt, saute with garlic. Just chop up your veggies and saute them with olive oil, garlic and even salt. This practically works for everything. If it's something hard like broccoli, simply cut the veggie up really small.

No.3: Next time you're going for a dressing, swap mayonnaise for mustard. A research showed in the medical journal states that turmeric (used in mustards), may slow the growth of fatty tissues.

No.4: Create your own salad bar in your fridge. After buying your green leafy vegetables, immediate wash,chop and store them, and make a weeks's worth of salad dressing. Grab your salad each morning before you go to work.

No.5: Choose lean cuts of meat and don't eat the fat. Avoid eating the skin on chicken, because although the meat is low in fat, the skin contains much more.
