Thankful Thursday's trio of weight loss winning tips

Thursday can be a winning day - or a losing day for dieters. Translation when it comes to weight loss: you've been "good" all week...but then you get on the scale, and dang! no progress. Or even worse, you gained weight.  WTF? you say to yourself (translation: "Why the French Fries?")

Step off the scale - and win the weight wars today with these tasty tips:

  • Eat like Courtney Cox. This Cougar star loooooves salads with a passion. Although she drowns them in ranch salad dressing, you can emulate her in a more diet-friendly fashion by shifting to fat-free Italian (choose one that is 15 calories per 2 tablespoon serving or less).
  • Snack like Dr. Oz. This Wizard of weight loss knows how to create "skinny snacks" to make that scale move in the right direction: down!
  • Spice it up! Look younger and slimmer with Dr. Oz's magical spices.
