* Stop All Soft Drinks Each soft drink is 150 empty calories. Replacing just one soft drink per day with water will result in losing 16 lbs per year. * Keep Yourself Occupied. It is easy to make food a fix for boredome. Being busy throughout the day will help keep food off your mind allowing you to control daily and night cravings. * Rid Your House of Tempting Foods There are those foods that we just cannot resist. So, make a list of those "trap" foods and keep them out of your house. If they are out of sight they will not be available when you get cravings. * Watch Your Portions The amount you eat is as impacting as the foods you eat. On average, if you eat 10% less, you will lose 20 lbs a year without changing the actual foods you eat. * Exercise Calories You have to do the whole hour of aerobics to burn off the 500 calories contained in a big piece of cheesecake. What is easier for you: exercising for 1 hour or not eating the cheesecake? * Stop for a Breather Before you are about to eat something you should not, pause and think. Is this really worth the extra calories and guilt. If it is, indulge. But if it is not you will have more willpower to proudly say no. * Slowly eat your food It takes our brain about 20 minutes to realize that we are full. When you eat too fast, there is not enough time for the "full" feeling to register, so you'd end up literally stuffing yourself with food. * Do Not Miss a Meal When you skip a meal, you get way too hungry. When you are too hungry, you won't be able to control yourself at the next meal. As a result, you'll end up eating more than 2 meals worth of calories. * Plan Your Meals Planning your meals in advance gives you more control. Trying to find something to eat at the last minute will make it harder to resist tempting, unhealthy foods. * Everyday Engage in Physical Activity Do not overwhelm yourself with an outrageous workout plan. Just use the stairs when available or do not worry about getting a good parking spot. Take advantage of walking when you can. Just 15 minutes daily of walking results in a 10 lb weight loss in only one year!
