    How to Eat Low Fat

    Welcome to How to Eat Low Fat. I can't promise miraculous, instant weight loss, but I can help you figure out what you need to do to reduce the amount of fat in your diet as part of an overall healthy-living plan. It's not so much about cutting fat indiscriminately -- as we need some fat in our diet to be healthy; it's more about figuring out how to use fat calories wisely. By the end of this course, you'll have a better understanding of dietary fats: where fat lurks, what kinds of things to stock in your pantry, how to cut fat in everyday cooking, and more.
