The hosts of the Emmy Award-winning talk show THE DOCTORS know that it can be hard for their viewers to balance eating the foods they love without ingesting extra calories. On Tuesday, November 15 (check local listings), the co-hosts, along with special guest and celebrity chef, Rocco DiSpirito, explain that it is possible for people to “have their cake and eat it too” in THE DOCTORS’ “Thinner, Younger and Sexier in 30” themed episode. Please see below for show highlights and tips that can be shared with your readers:
Rocco DiSpirito provides 30 calorie savers from his new book: Now Eat This – 100 Quick Calorie Cuts. Easy substitutions, include:
Double the celery in tuna or chicken salad recipes – saves 100 calories
Try a margarita on the rocks instead of blended – saves 100 calories
Use a spritzer to apply salad dressing – saves 100 calories
Order half the cheese and double the vegetables when getting pizza – saves 300-500 calories
Substitute salsa for chili con queso at a party – saves 911 calories
Dr. Travis, Jillian and Rocco demonstrate the importance of keeping track of calories and measuring when cooking at home. For instance, every “extra” tablespoon of oil used in a recipe adds an extra 100 calories!
Plus, THE DOCTORS shares “30-themed” solutions that fit your schedule, including:
New technology that can create a minimally-invasive 30-minute face lift
How to have better sex in 30 days
