Lowfat, heart healthy

This is an excellent diet for good heart health and moderate weight loss. It is as easy as common sense. Stay away from fats and limit your salt intake. Eat healthy whole grain carbs, and walk 30 minutes at least 5 times a week.

Try different types of vegetables, nuts, fruits, and fish varieties to prevent boredom. There are literally thousands of free recipes out there for your browsing. Vegetables and fruits are inexpensive. Lean meats may be a little more than fatty ones, but it all sort of levels itself out so that you're not spending more. Junk food is expensive.
