!. Automate your eating by planning your meals ahead of time. That way you're less likely to make an unhealthy last-minute food choice.
!. Skipping meals can cause your body to go into a fat-storing starvation mode, making it harder to burn calories.
!. Don't confuse thirst with hunger. Drink a glass of water when you feel hungry to see if that's what you're really craving.
!. Create emergency packs filled with healthy foods such as nuts, fruits or sliced vegetables to help you avoid unhealthy temptations.
!. Never eat any snack food out of the box, carton or bag it came in. You're less likely to overeat if you separate snacks into appropriate fist-sized servings.
!. Take every opportunity to move around, even in small ways. Studies show fidgety people tend to be skinnier.
!. If you're having trouble getting started, make a small move such as starting an eating log or buying walking shoes. You're three times more likely to follow through if you start with small gestures such as these.
