What follows are a number of hints on reducing the fat in your diet. Also, remember, growing children should not be calorie restricted. Use skim milk. I have seen many children like this. This should tell us something about acquired tastes.
Most people eat one or two fresh fruits a day.
Gradually increase that to 3 fruits a day. You will probably find that fruit satisfies the craving for sugar that many people have. Try to eat a salad daily, using a no-fat salad dressing. You will notice that you are acquiring a taste for vegetables that you never had before. Cut down the margarine or butter you add to bread over 2 months.
