New Cook This Not That cookbook offers skinny comfort foods (Video)

Cold, wintry weather is perfect for a comfort-food meal. But wait its January and youre knee deep into your weight-loss resolution. Can you have your cake and eat it, too? Sure the Eat This, Not That team of David Zinczenko and Matt Goulding is back with Cook This, Not That: Skinny Comfort Foods (Rodale, $19.99).

And not only is there cake (two different kinds on the cover alone!), there are ribs (410 calories), quesadillas (310 calories) and garlic mashed potatoes (170 calories).

The secret is in lighter ingredients, smarter portion sizes and enjoying the food at home instead of a restaurant where you have no idea whats going into your meal. There are no creepy diet foods or ridiculous substitutions in the collection of recipes.

The logic behind the new book is that if these foods can satisfy your hunger and appetite (two completely separate things), youll be less likely to ditch your diet and fall face first into a bag of nacho chips after dinner.

There are 125 recipes in the compact softcover book, and nearly every recipe has a full-page color photo to accompany it. A fat reducing review can help you produce a clear summarize of what you require to focus on to complete your fat loss objective if you're a starter; or serve as a reminder for these who are at an intermediate or more improve level of their weight-loss strategy. Following are seven steps that can serve as suggestions for your special weight loss plan. The first thing that one must understand is that losing weight and losing fat is not the same thing. Many weight loss courses have misled people into wondering that it is the same, but most diets and weight loss programs only work by causing a person's body to lose more muscle cells and water than actual body fat, more help please visit The Fat Loss Factor. In addition, each recipe lists the calories, fat and sodium.

Besides the recipes, the book outlines:

• What your skinny pantry should have at all times: Items like whipped butter (yes, butter), quinoa, chicken stock, balsamic vinegar and Greek yogurt.
• The 10 best supermarket comfort foods: Amys frozen pizzas and Vans whole grain waffles make the list.
• Anatomy of a dietary disaster: How simple mac and cheese, potpie and pizza can go so wrong and how to fix them.
• And, of course, restaurant gut busters for every meal of the day are revealed, because who doesn't love a culinary jaw-dropper, like the Cheesecake Factory Shrimp and Chicken Gumbo, which weighs in at 1,570 calories and more than 2,000 milligrams of sodium.
