• Eat 500 fewer calories a day to lose one pound of body fat in a week. By substituting 1 serving of Progresso soup and a small tossed salad with 2 tablespoons of fat-free dressing for lunch instead of a fast food hamburger and small fries, you can save about 350 calories.
• Physical activity is an essential part of the weight loss equation. Aim for 30 minutes of exercise most days of the week.
• If you don’t have time for 30 minutes of exercise at once, split it up into 3 10-minute segments. For example, you can take a 10-minute walk in the morning, another at lunch, and another after work.
• If you do spend your lunchtime walking or doing some other physical activity, make a quick, warm, nutritious lunch with Progresso soup. You can try a new variety each day!
• Eat slowly and enjoy your meals. It takes about 20 minutes before your brain knows that your stomach is full. Soup is a great way to savor your mealtime.Stock up on wholesome staple foods so you can always find something nutritious to prepare. Progresso soup is a good pantry item to keep on hand for the nights you don’t know what to make for dinner, or keep it in your desk at work for a handy lunch.
