An apple a day keeps the doctor away but it also keeps the pounds off as well.  Any type of apple will do, just eat it fresh and with the peel.  The pectin in the peel makes you feel fuller.  The average apple only has about 50 calories and is full of vitamin C and fibers.  Drinking apple juice or cooked apples won’t give you the same effect as a raw apple.

1. Eat breakfast.  This meal gets you off to a good start in lots of ways.  It’s been shown the people who eat breakfast while on a diet, lose more weight than ones who don’t. Your breakfast doesn’t have to elaborate.  Have a half a bagel spread with low fat cream cheese or peanut butter and a piece of fruit.  Two hard boiled eggs, a glass of skim milk and a  few crackers.  A fruit smoothie made with nonfat yogurt, fresh strawberries and orange juice.

2. Make lunch your big meal and dinner a light supper.  You need energy to get you through the busiest part of the day.  Food eaten in the evening just sits in your tummy and makes you feel heavy.   Make it a rule not to eat after 8 PM every evening. Continue reading »

Well, fear not. While you may have tried just about every get thin quick diet in existence with no luck at all, this article, and the brief series to follow, will give you some solid info and a few common sense tips to get you off on the right foot in getting that body that you always wanted. Hopefully, after reading this series, you’ll have a pretty good idea of how to go about losing those extra pounds.

After all, each of us have different heights and bone structures. Those two things play a great role in determining just how much we should weigh. For example, somebody who is five foot seven with a small frame, or bone structure, should not weigh as much as somebody who is five foot five with a large frame, or bone structure. News flash, bones are heavy. So you have to take that into consideration. Continue reading »
