Order kids meal!

Not actual  kids. Just their food.
When eating out, you can order an individual pizza or a small sandwich. In this way you keep the calories low and the quantities consumed controlled.

Another trick is to use smaller plates. This helps the portions look larger, and if by looking at them you mind is satisfied, then most likely your stomach will also be satisfied.

Wearing smaller clothes is bad. Using smaller plates is good.

Number nine. It’s quick!

Tip #9.

Fill the kitchen with healthy and easy meals.

The easy-made meals or snacks that are prepared quickly solve a lot of your problems (cooking time, preparation time etc) and put you a step closer to weight loss success. They will prevent you from ordering something from a fast food restaurant, because you can prepare your own healthy meal within 5-10 minutes.

Such foods include:

Frozen vegetables. You can thaw them if you prefer.
Ready, purified salads
Canned vegetables (tomatoes, beans, corn)
Slices of boiled turkey (for toast)
Low-fat cheese
Black rice (quick boil)
Chocolate. (Ok I snuck that in there)

Five. We are on our way.

April 22, 2010

Tip #5.
Enjoy your favourite foods
To completely avoid your favourite food will not create the desired results since the feeling of deprivation leads at sometime to exaggeration.
