20 Fat-Burning Secrets of The Grill

#12: Grill in the off season

Hone your grill skills this summer and you can carry them straight through to the cold season. According to a 2008 study conducted by Weber, only 57 percent of grill owners grill year-round. But consider this: A pan-fried pork chop can have 50 more calories and 5 more grams of fat than a grilled pork chop. So if you fire up the grill four nights a week between Labor Day and Memorial Day, you’re looking at a savings of 7,600 calories. That's enough to lose 2 unwanted pounds of flab without changing anything else about your diet!
