Snack attack - Cottage cheese and ruby grapefruit

For today's installment, it's not technically a meal but a snack. And to be honest, it's the snacking that I think is the main culprit when it comes to weight gain. Snack right and you're sorted.
Try ruby red grapefruit mixed with low fat cottage cheese. Not only is the cottage cheese an excellent source of protein but studies have shown that grapefruit aids weightloss.
In a study by the Nutrition and Medical Research Centre in San Diego,California those who hate a grapefruit with each meal lost 3.6lb in twelve weeks, compared to 0.5lb of those who didn't.
All well and good these studies, but try it yourself. This really does fill you up, and it's nice!
