60 Rules for Weight Loss

Written on July 31, 2008 by Sid

Here’s one with a difference - it lists 60, short, sweet and simple rules to lose weight. here’s a sampler:

1. Start the day with one 8 oz. Glass of water before breakfast. It helps to get you on the right track for the day.
2. Remember your ABCs – All Bites Count.
3. Use a salad plate instead of a dinner plate.
4. To avoid snacking while cooking or baking, drink water or chew gum.
5. Build a food “treat” into your food allowance every day.
6. If vulnerable to snacking later in the evening, floss and brush your teeth. This will deter you from putting anything else in your mouth.
7. Track what you eat, calories, and other things in a journal daily. You can use it to find problems that may be hindering your success.
8. After dinner, clean up the kitchen and turn off like lights. If you feel the urge to eat something, you might think twice about actually doing so.
9. Before indulging, ask yourself: Do I really want this and is it worth it in the end?
10. When going out to eat, wear a belt. A snug-fitting belt might help prevent overeating.

Not bad huh? And there are 50 more where those came from!
