Weight Loss Nutrition Boot Camp Style in Coppell

Coppell Boot Camp Personal Trainer Says...

BEWARE THE BREAKFAST MEAT - THEY AREN'T ALL CREATED EQUAL

This weekend, I spent some time at the new Sprouts market in Coppell. This is one of my favorite grocery stores so it was only logical that I would attend the Grand Opening festivities. As always when I'm out and about, I found something of interest that I wanted to share with my boot camp participants and community in general.

Today's empowering information is about breakfast meat.

If you are interested in weight loss, it goes without saying that what you eat is very important. However many times we get overly consumed with caloric content instead of quality of the food we eat. One interesting example of lower quality (or poorer choice) food appearing to be equal in value to high quality food that will produce weight loss was staring right at me in the breakfast meat cooler at Sprouts in Coppell.

Side by side were 2 turkey bacon options. One choice, I would highly recommend to my personal training clients and the other I would encourage them to avoid.

GREAT CHOICE: Applegate Farms Turkey Bacon
HEALTH FOOD IMPOSTER: Oscar Meyer Turkey Bacon

Both options were 35 calories per slice BUT Applegate Farms Turkey Bacon was made with no nitrates (suspected cancer causing chemicals used for curing) and had 6 grams of protein and only 1.5 grams of fat. Oscar Meyer contained nitrates and had only 2 grams of protein and 3 grams of fat.

Just another example of why calorie counting for weight loss can leave you with less than desireable results.
