    A great place to start is by cutting as much fat as possible - skinless chicken breast, white fish, 96% lean ground beef. Cook with PAM, sprinkle on Molly McButter - look for fat free sour cream, cheese, yogurt. And add vegetables to everything to increase the flavor and mass of a meal without a big increase in calories.

    Here's my favorite fat free salad dressing

    6 oz. plain greek yogurt
    6 oz. lowfat buttermilk
    1 pkg. Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix

    Whisk it all together and store in the fridge for up to two weeks

    only 10 calories per tablespoon - 1 gram of carb, 1 gram of protein
