My point in all this though is that you do not have to sacrifice flavour in order to diet. You can live without butter; there are many substitutions on the market that are quite remarkable. But seasonings are a great way to add a lot of flavour for a tiny bit of effort on your part. Desserts are also great and you can find many dips and sauces that can be made with fat-free or low-fat mayonnaise or sour cream in order to cut a few more calories during your dieting process.
