Recently I was watching some old reruns of Project Runway on My Lifetime. During one of the commercial breaks I happened to see a preview for what has now become my favorite cooking show, I think. The show is called Cook Yourself Thin. It’s a new series that offers viewers the skills and the confidence to give their favorite indulgent meals a healthy makeover by cutting the calories and doubling the flavor! In each episode, three culinary experts show guests how to lose their unwanted inches by replacing extreme dieting with clever cooking. They take three meals or recipes that the guest loves and revamp them so that they are healthier.
The thing I like the most about the show is that they prove that you can still eat the things you love, but with small changes. They always show a comparison in calories from the original dish to the “Cook Yourself Thin” version, and it’s absolutely amazing. You can’t undo what you’ve done overnight, but small steps can get you there. If you’re like I was in the beginning, sometimes it’s hard to figure out how to change things to make them better for you. The three gals on this show give excellent advice and tips that you might have never imagined. I hope you’ll check it out.
