Easy Weight Loss Tips

Here are some simple ideas to help you lose weight

You don’t keep up with the Joneses. Try taking one bite of food for every two your dining companion takes.
To stop yourself from eating more, brush your teeth, floss, gargle, or chew a stick of gum immediately after your meal.
When you throw food away, thoroughly bury it under more trash so there will be absolutely no question of you changing your mind.
Chew sugarless gum while you prepare meals. It will keep you from tasting while you cook.
Drink a glass of water before every meal. It’s a healthy way to quench your hunger as your stomach will feel fuller sooner.

Give yourself a manicure when a craving strikes, applying extra layers of slow-drying nail polish. It will keep your hands occupied and out of trouble until the craving fades.
Take a shower or bath when a food craving strikes. It will relax you, and keep your whole body occupied and out of trouble (i.e., out of the kitchen!) until the craving fades.
When a food craving strikes, make a call to a talkative friend. Even better, calll from a phone that is away from the kitchen, and stay on until the craving fades.

Give your sandwiches a boost with lettuce, tomato, sprouts, cucumber slices, bell peppers, and other fresh veggies. Along with the bigger crunch, you’ll get a bigger sandwich with few additional calories and no extra fat.
Have your teeth cleaned professionally and whitened. You won’t want to tarnish that gorgeous mouth with “bad” food.

Work for your snacks. Before you eat a high-calorie snack, clean the bathroom or vacuum the house. Don’t eat until the faucets and sink are gleaming.

Tape a picture of your skinny self to the refrigerator for inspiration. Remind yourself what you can look like. Or alternatively, tape a picture of your fat self to the refrigerator for motivation and remind yourself what you don’t want to look like.
