Eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables per day

[sindhu_pec]

Fruits and vegetables are packed with beneficial fibers, vitamins and antioxidants. They fill up your stomach fast so you feel full earlier. They are also low in calories and helps to keep your calorie count low.

[sindhu_pec]

One serving of pasta means 1/2 cup of cooked pasta. However, most restaurants serve a pasta dish with 4 servings of pasta!!! You do not need to finish and clean off the plate every time. You can simply ask to take home the leftover.

[sindhu_pec]

Eating small frequent meals help to balance your calorie intake throughout the day and also keeps your blood sugar level balanced. Instead of eating 3 big meals, try to eat 5 - 6 smaller meals throughout the day.

[sindhu_pec]

If possible, purchase fresh foods and avoid package (processed) and convenient foods such as fast food. Packaged and convenient foods are often higher in sodium and fat content. Many people we spoke to are amazed that they can easily lose weight by packing a home-cooked lunch to work instead of eating out.

[sindhu_pec]

Everyone has his or her favorite treats. Simply allow yourself a little indulgence, but watch out for the frequency and the quantity. Having a small treat once in a while can be rewarding to your weight loss experience. Cutting too much of your favorite treats usually lead to an early relapse.

[sindhu_pec]

A product labelled with a fat-free claim does not mean that it is low in calories. Similarly a product labelled as low-sugar or low-carb does not mean it is low in fat or calories. Always read the nutrition label on the packaging.

[sindhu_pec]

Juices, pop, cream & sugar in your coffee or tea all add up. Opt for drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day. In addition to providing hydration to your body, it will also help you feel full.

[sindhu_pec]

Keeping a food journal helps you pin point your eating pattern and will enable you to easily modify it. If possible, have your Registered Dietitian review your journal.

[sindhu_pec]

Most authorities recommend 30 - 60 minutes of physical activity a day to stay healthy. Also try adding weight-bearing exercises at least 2 times a week. This will help burn some of the unwanted calories.

[sindhu_pec]

You will need to see your doctor for a physical if you haven't had one recently and you really should get her approval before starting a weight loss regime.

[sindhu_pec]

You shouldn't set your sights too high (... like losing 30 pounds in a month. Those signs advertising weight loss pills are not true!).

[sindhu_pec]

No matter which way you look at it, 3,500 calories cut is one pound lost.
Whether you take in 500 fewer or burn 500 more calories a day, by the end of the week you’ll be one pound lighter!

[sindhu_pec]

You should ask yourself how long you can live this way. If you can’t imagine staying on a particular plan until you reach your goal weight, try something else.
Going on and off the same plan again and again leads to yo-yo dieting.

[sindhu_pec]

You need to plan alternative strategies to cope with emotional eating. Many people with weight issues have the habit of eating in response to emotions and stress. Be ready.

[sindhu_pec]

Factors such as genetics, ethnicity, your environment, your job, physical hindrances from exercising, etc., can affect your weight management efforts. Accept that there are some things you can’t change.

[sindhu_pec]

Your ultimate goal should be a realistic one. Some of us will never fit into that wedding or prom dress again. Our bodies change with time. Settle for a weight that is healthy for you now, not 15 years ago.

[sindhu_pec]

Diets with too-severe restrictions like too few calories or entire food groups being omitted often lead to binges and uncontrollable cravings. Moderation is the key.

[sindhu_pec]

Your weight will fluctuate from day to day. Resist the urge to weigh yourself on a daily basis, as doing so will discourage you. Weigh in the same time and day once a week.

[sindhu_pec]

Bottom line: Losing weight isn't easy.
There is no magic pill or quick fix for long-term, healthy weight loss. It’s going to take a lot of discipline and hard work.

But just because something is difficult, it’s not impossible. The fact is ... You can do it!

[sindhu_pec]

hope its useful to all

[sindhu_pec]

Increase your protein intake. Without protein your body cannot build new muscle. Protein also helps to increase your metabolism - which burns calories.

[sindhu_pec]

Increase you water intake. A good formula for this is to multiply your bodyweight by .66 to get the required number of ounces per day.

Weight loss tips accompanied by walking helps you a lot in losing weight. Three universal goals that most of us share are: to live longer, to live free of illness or disease and to control our weight. Interesting enough, normal walking lets us achieve all three.

[sindhu_pec]

Start your diet with a food diary. Record everything you eat, what you were doing at the time, how you felt. That tells you about yourself - your temptation times, the emotional states that encourage you to eat - and may help you lose weight, once you see how much you eat.

[sindhu_pec]

If you're about to cheat, allow yourself a treat, then eat only half and throw the other half away. When hunger hits, wait several minutes before eating and see if it passes.

[sindhu_pec]

Instead of eating the forbidden piece of candy brush your teeth. The sweetness of the toothpaste may take your craving away.

[johnting101]

sindhu said it well :) Yes, take record of what you eat and try to cut down what is unnecessary.

[iEddy]

It would be a good idea to write everything good and bad that you have eaten and maybe you can find out that you are eating too much

[irahat]

I think running or walking regularly will help a great bit in reducing weight and help cure other diseases so, do running or walking regularly even for 20 or 30 minutes.

[bluedianthus]

Took you own box-of-lunch also ensure the cleanliness
of the food. I used to take my lunchbox to my research lab as
my mom's cooking is very delicious one....hehe...

[angel]

eating juices, salad, fruit instead of dinner is also help to loosing weight.
