If you have read the report on fats you should now understand that eating fats is essential to weight loss, but only if they are the right fats.
Seeds are a fantastic way of getting in the right amounts of Omega 6. One of the best ways is to create a pack of trail mix.
Trail mix consists of a mixture of Almonds, unsweetened dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds and sunflower seeds. I usually make this weekly and have it for a midmorning snack at about 10.30. It’s pre-prepared, tastes great and will take away cravings for fat later in the day.
The only thing missing from this mix of seeds is flaxseed or linseed, this is a little small to be included in the trail mix and I usually grind it up and put it into my morning shake. It’s important for your Omega-3 oils.
Here are the amounts you need to make:
* 10grams – Unsweetened Dried Cranberries
* 10grams – Almonds
* 10grams – Pumkin Seeds
* 10grams – Sunflower Seeds
* 10grams – Sesame Seeds
This mixture is just over 250 calories and is a very easy snack.
