- Dark colored plates help curb hunger and feel fuller
- Use big dinner forks and spoons all the time (they are usually heavier also)
- Try to be stress free: when you are stressed out or uncomfortable it is a lot easier to lose self control. If you suffer from anxiety also learn techniques to manage that, it will help.
- drink a glass of water 30 minutes before a meal: when I still feel 'hungry' after a meal I find that room temp. water also helps
- Protein is important: don't skimp on protein, sure more cals but you will find yourself eating much less
- 2oz of walnuts help burn more fat faster
- 2tsp of Vinegar absorbs fat when taken before a meal
- chew your food 40 times
- plan your day's meals in advance
- don't rely on cigarettes as an appetite suppressant
- make a visual representation of your weight loss: I have two vases, a big one and a little one with sea shells, one shell=one lb lost and they go from the big one to the little one
- grab a mirror or turn on your web cam and eat in front of yourself
- Never skip breakfast!
- Chew food and spit it out
- fidget all the time
- Keep a thinspiration book: I have 4 different ones, at least have one with me at all times
- stay away from enriched and processed foods
- be careful of your bones: we need around 1000mg of calcium a day, grab a multivitamin
- Keep a food diary-always be aware of what you are eating
- when you feel done eating avoid over eating by ruining your food: I stick a napkin in it or drop my fork on the floor if I'm at a restaurant or toss it in the garbage if I'm at home
- Exercise before you eat
- Cook what you crave for a friend: I notice when I have a craving I watch other people eat it and it usually makes my craving go away. sometimes not but that brings you back to number 14
- Lean Cuisines are cheap and fast with around 200 cals
- never enough Juice: I use half my day's cals on juices and it works magic, can be diluted with water
- Fat free is your friend-your best friend
- wear smaller clothes
- Keep food out of sight
- cleans! cleans! cleans!
- Don't ever eat before you sleep
- Perfect posture makes you appear healthier and burns cals while giving you a sense of confidence
- Keep skin moisturised to avoid sag: I use St. Ives Skin Renewing Collagen Elastin
- Only weigh yourself for knowledge not inspiration
- keep your gym bag out in the open and put it new places everyday
- Mayo? what is mayo?
- Eat before you meet! never go on a lunch date or something without snacking first it helps you avoid over eating during your meal
- Brush your teeth right after your eat
- a minimum of 6 hours of sleep is necessary: lack of sleep is lack of loss!
