PSA Reminder: Please watch the sauces and oils

One of the biggest silent killers in your weight loss efforts is high caloric sauces that you don’t think about. Please stop putting ranch on everything. Don’t load your pan with oil to cook. If you eat take out, watch those “signature sauces” that are usually just a mayo base with ketchup and mustard.

And you may be thinking, stop being so strict and let me enjoy myself. Take a minute to count the calories in your usual serving and see that you’re often adding hundreds of calories from that sauce or oil alone. That caloric deficit you think you’re in because you don’t count sauces, you’re not in.

Some sauces are perfectly fine (ketchup, mustard, “light” is acceptable) but it’s good to be aware and find alternatives because the basic go-to’s can be questionable.

I have a long time friend who refuses to count calories and also puts ranch on everything but wonders why she can’t lose weight. Girl you just replaced your pizza marinara base with ranch! You just ordered salmon and potatoes with ranch! You just put ranch on your morning eggs! Since she won’t take the advice, I hope someone here does.
