"Setting them, that is. Keeping them? That's another story. According to a 2024 Forbes Health survey, resolution setters last an average of only two to four months. High on the list of perennial resolutions is losing weight. Diets abound, and how you lose weight, I've discovered, is not as important as how you keep it off. I've finally realized that for me, the difference between losing weight and maintaining weight may only be a few added calories."
"We first met at Melissa's Produce headquarters at the launch of her cookbook Substitute Yourself Skinny (Adams Media, $17.95), which has helped me keep my own resolutions. Her 175 recipes streamline some of our favorite dishes French toast, Caesar salad, brownies, lasagna, burritos, New England clam chowder, cheesecake, pad Thai, mac n cheese, fettuccini alfredo by switching calorie- and fat-laden ingredients and offering Skinny Secret shortcuts to keep us on track."
"My whole life I have strived to find a balance between staying slim and trim and enjoying the fattening foods I love, Irby said. The only way to break the negative/unhealthy/overindulging/fattening food cycle is to replace overly fattening foods with less-fattening foods that taste as good or better than the overly fattening foods. Each recipe not only includes the nutritional breakdown of fat, carbs, protein and sodium, but also compares calories per serving of the original recipe against the SYS (Substitute Yourself Skinny) version."
New Year's resolutions date back 4,000 years to the Babylonians. Resolution setters last an average of two to four months. Losing weight is a common perennial resolution and maintaining weight often hinges on small calorie differences. Susan Irby's Substitute Yourself Skinny contains 175 streamlined recipes that remake favorite dishes by substituting calorie- and fat-laden ingredients with lower-calorie alternatives and Skinny Secret shortcuts. Each recipe lists nutritional breakdowns of fat, carbs, protein and sodium and compares the calories per serving of the original recipes against the SYS versions to help track intake.
