Chic-Shuk Secrets

Admitting I am totally addicted tvito French Fries, I must say it was kinda hard reducing the amount I used to eat ever since keeping a healthy weight watchers lifestyle and dieting routing. However, I have recently discovered there is a much healthier and even tastier way to enjoy the sense of eating fries! since I love sweets, I really enjoy the flavor you get from Sweet Potatoes. More then that- they are so nutritious, which makes it a smart, healthy choice to make! Sweet Potatoes contain many health benefits such as Vitamin A and Vitamin C. Both are powerful antioxidants, which may help prevent cancer, and not only they taste like a dessert they are considered very good food for diabetics since help in stabilize blood sugar levels. In addition, Sweet Potatoes are rich in minerals like Calcium, Iron and Potassium. Be sure to add these wonderful naturally sweet vegetables to your meals throughout the year! and not only as fries, since they are some of the most nutritious vegetables around!

It is scary how all that work stress can effect our health and our waistline, even if we don’t eat more then usual. Chronically stress can majorly increase the risk of diabetes and heart disease. More then that- The darkest secret of stress when it comes to your weight watching lifestyle routine or, in different words- why do you gain weight from being stressed without eating more then usual? Apparently, A long term stress can increase levels of Cortisol, which is a hormone that promotes the storage of belly fat and is the main reason of why you can get fat and gain weight without eating more then usual.

It is OK to have a busy lifestyle and no time to shop for fresh groceries and cooking from scratch. It is also okay to have absolutely no idea how to cook an entire meal. (relax, many of us simply don’t have that talent..) However, It is NOT ok when you`re not eating right. Eating right means healthy food choices such as green, fresh, low fat, and most important- nutrients values.  

My favorite solution for fast, healthy and as fresh as possible meal, when short on time for cooking, is the low fat convenience Contessa Frozen Meals. In less then 10 minuets of preparation and a single pan, I always feel like I had just cooked that  hearty home-style healthy meal. Contessa brand offers customized gourmet foods, including convenience meals for short and simple preparation and a consistency of quality and freshness. I love the fact there are greens and tasteful healthy vegetables included in every bag, plus the sauce is always packed separately for a preferred taste and dietary needs.  Contessa meals are definitely a great healthy fast food solution, and at no doubt for people who appreciate fine food, though have no time or the ability to cook.  Especially once trying to maintain a weight watchers lifestyle and healthy diet, these low-fat and less calories meals from Contessa brand are highly recommended for any occasion!
