1)While you are at parties or at home avoid standing near food. This may sound obvious but you will eat a whole lot more if you have food around you all the time.
2)Avoid snaking often during the day. You can eat more than 600 calories just by snacking on some pretzels. If you are stressed go jogging and if you feel hungry eat a fruit or even better a vegetable.
3)A simple dieting trick you can use is to put a sign on the kitchen door or fridge door saying "Closed after 8pm" That way you will eat less food at night.
4)It is a good idea to walk around the mall for at least 3 times before starting to shop. That way you will burn some calories and find the best deals possible. It is healthy and light on the pocket too.
5)You should exercise on a weekly basis is you want to ever lose weight. Dieting can help you lose a couple of pounds but for long lasting weight loss results you have to merge exercising with dieting.
6)A fat free diet isn't the best choice always. Your body needs fats to function properly and maintain your body healthy. For example your body has a hard time absorbing lycopene or beta carotene from foods if they don't contain any fats.
7)From time to time you will have to satisfy your sweet tooth. You can eat a low calorie salad and use up all those sawed calorie for a treat. You can indulge all your sweet craving this way and you won't get fat because you do.
8)Instead of a large dinner you can eat a smoothie made out of fat-free milk, some frozen fruits and wheat germ.
9)During the holidays don't tell yourself it is fine to overindulge. If you do you will probably overeat fatty foods for at least 1 more month.
10)Before going to a party eat a healthy meal at home. That way you won't be as tempted by all the unhealthy food found at the party.
