Top Dieting Tips

August 26, 2009

dietingIf you are dieting and having problems keeping away from food here are some simple tips that will keep your cravings to a minimum and help you to live your life and not hide away from the world. 

Do something that helps you stay on track

Sitting through the endless stream of commercials that tempt you with food will only stall your dieting efforts.  Get up and find something else to do in the three minutes they are airing.

Try to do short exercises or housework between shows.  Make watching television an active form of entertainment and your diet will not seem so hard.

Portion control

Remember that right sized portions make the difference.  If you are craving a snack, the best way to avoid over eating is to have the right portion readily available.

Make a batch of your favorite snake and portion it off.  When you need to grab something to snack on you will have the right portion available to keep you on track.

Learn to tell the difference from a food fix and a hunger pang!

Sometimes we think we need more food than we do.  Do not let your mind tell you to eat more if you know that you have had the right portion of food.  Controlling how you think about food will go a long way in controlling what you eat and will become easer as you continue to do it.

Feel fuller with water

Water, water, water.  Drinking water is one of the best ways to feel full.  If you drink it before lunch or dinner, you will feel fuller faster.  Drinking water between meals will also help you avoid snacking and stay one track.

Think outside of the box

Think of some things you enjoy doing that do not involve food and then do them!  The more active you are the less time you will have to sit and think about food. Getting active is one of the most important ways to stay on track and have a positive dieting experience.  So, get up do something fun!

Remember dieting is a life changing process and requires making small life style changes to be successful.
