Fayebelle Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 Of course exercise. Try replacing everything you normally drink w/plain ole water- you'll be amazed how much that helps. Eat a salad or drink a Slim Fast (really good for your vitamins)before meals so you feel fuller and don't eat as much fatty foods. Watch your portions- Americans eat HUGE portion sizes.

I feel that those shakes or healthy bars just make me more hungry! Like Fayebelle said try eating smaller portions and a lot of water.
Haunani Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 journaling helps too. Write down what it is that you normally eat. Then make small changes - instead of fried stuff, eat bake, broiled, boiled. Substitute high fats for lower fat choices. Eat more fiber it will fill you up. Eat small mini meals 5-6 every 4-5 hours. Eat a well balance meal consisting of fats (yes you need those), protein and carbs. Drink water. Avoid alcohol as much as possible, it will hold on to your fat. The more you eat will keep your body metabolism fueled and youll burn more calories, but it's chosing the right foods to eat. Watch the calories and never go belowe 1200., and move more than you normall do.
