Meat is often served in the main dinner plate. Restaurant menus and home meals too are tipically organized around meat. Many meat lovers can't imagine a major meal without it. Meat is a good source of protein and iron that your body needs. BUT certain types of meat contain a lot of cholesterol, satured fat and calories.
As I said before it's much better to adopt a vegetarian diet, but if you're a meat lover and want to include it in your diet, always choose those lean and low in calories.

Selection:
1- Examine the meat for visible fat and marbling. Instead, choose lean meats. Look at package labels for ground beef and poultry. Choose meats that are 90 percent or higher in lean meat.

2- Carefully read labels for ground turkey and chicken as they often include dark meat and fat. This boosts the fat content and often lowers the lean meat percentage to 80 percent or less, about the same as you'll find in cheaper ground beef.

3- Avoid "Prime" cuts, as this means this meat is well-marbled.

4- Choose white meat rather than red. White meat, which includes fish and fowl, is miles better than red meat, which includes beef and pork .

5-Stay away from pork. Pork is not something that can help you to lose weight. The fatiness of pork is the reason for this weight loss tips. So the lesser pork you eat the better chances you have of losing weight.

6-pork includes the pork products, things like bacon, ham and sausages, so stay away from them aswell.

preparation:
Avoid breading or battering your meat, and avoid frying it. Instead, broil, grill or sauté the meat in a small amount of olive oil.Trim all visible fat from the meat before you cook it. Use marinades, curries or low-calorie sauces to moisten, tenderize and flavor the meat, rather than relying on the fat. Reduce fat further by making soups or stews a day ahead of time.

Poultry:
Chicken and turkey breast are great in in terms of nutrition, mild flavor that complements many cuisines and fewer calories than most meats. Always remove the skin to reduce the calories.
chicken breast without the skin provides 48 percent fewer calories and nearly 90 percent less fat compared to chicken breast with skin.

Fish and Seafood:
Fish provides quality protein and, in contrast to many other meats, it is low in saturated fat. It's also an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, nutrients that lower cholesterol, reduce your risk of cardiovascular and offer numerous other health benefits.
Eat fish at least twice a week.
Eat water-packed rather than oil-packed tuna.
