TIPS continued
Butter Use soft tub margarine instead of butter, or use other spreads that are lower in trans fat, cholesterol, and saturated fat such as a stick of margarine. Eggs Limit egg yolks to three or four per week, or eat egg whites instead. Meat Buy fresh lean cuts of meat and trim the fat before cooking. Eat chicken, turkey, and very lean pork or beef. Remove the skin from poultry before cooking except when roasting a whole chicken. Roast, broil, or bake meats instead of frying them.

TIPS continued
Oils Use olive, canola, corn, or safflower oil in cooking. Use calorie-free, fat-free cooking spray to provide a nonstick surface for grills, bake ware, and wok-ware. Fat Limit saturated calories to less than 7 percent of your total calories and trans-fat calories to less than 1 percent of your total calories.
