Slow cookers are a great kitchen gadget to invest in if you want to start a new weight loss routine. Most of weight loss comes from diet (rather than exercise) so making careful decisions when it comes to the foods you eat is important. One effective way of starting to eat more mindfully is to plan out your meals ahead of time. Meal planning might sound intimidating, but it can be as simple (or as complex) as you make it. One of the simpler methods is to use a slow cooker more regularly, making your meals ahead of time so that you will be less likely to resort to unhealthy snacking (or takeout) when cravings hit.
