Host a Biggest Loser-themed evening with our recipes and entertaining tips
Ingredients:
Tissues, tears, and the bathroom scale
Preparation:
Put on your workout gear, drink a stomach-filling glass of water, bring elastic-waist pants just in case.
Yield:
A 537-calorie menu guaranteed to keep the pounds off
The Menu:
There are few better ways to spend a Tuesday night than to watch The Biggest Loser, tissue box in one hand, air-popped popcorn (1 cup has just 31 calories) in the other. You sympathize with the contestants as they battle to lose the pounds minute by minute, week by week. It is inspiring to watch, as they learn what they can do, whether it's finishing a half marathon or going to a pizzeria and opting for a healthy salad. You can do it too, with this healthy menu, which has only 537 calories. Make it and eat it before the show starts, because one thing The Biggest Loser has taught us is to celebrate and focus on the food you eat-no mindless eating anymore.
Party Tip:
During each commercial break, lead the group in some simple exercises. For instance, at the first break, get off the couch for 20 jumping jacks; during the next break, hit the floor for 10 push-ups. If you want to add some competition, offer prizes for the guest who can do the most sit-ups or squats.
