Plan your meals
Try to format your breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks for the week, allowing you to stick to your calorie allowance. You may also find it useful for making a weekly shopping list.
Do not stock junk food
To avoid temptation, no longer list junk foods at home - such as chocolate, biscuits, crisps and candy fizzy drinks. Instead, opt for healthy snacks, such as fruit, unsalted rice cakes, oat cakes, unsalted or unsweetened popcorn, and fruit juice.
Use a smaller plate
Using smaller plates can help you eat smaller portions. By using smaller plates and bowls, you can gradually be in a position to eat smaller portions that don't feel appetizing. It takes about 20 minutes for the Genius to tell you that your stomach is full, so eat slowly and stop eating before you experience fullness.
Eat high fiber foods
A diet high in fiber can help keep you feeling full, which is great for weight loss. Fiber is found entirely in plant foods, such as fruits and vegetables, oats, whole grain bread, brown rice and pasta, and beans, peas and lentils.
Get more active
Being energetic is key to losing weight and keeping it off. As well as providing many fitness benefits, exercising properly can help burn excess energy that you can't lose through diet alone.
Eat regular meals
Eating at daily intervals for the duration of the day helps burn energy at a faster rate. This reduces the temptation to snack on foods high in added fat and sugar.
Do not skip breakfast
Skipping breakfast will not help you lose weight. You may want to cut down on important vitamins and, due to the fact that you're feeling hungry, you may even skip snacking throughout the day.
Eat plenty of fruit and veg
Fruits and vegetables are low in energy and fat, and high in fiber—three key ingredients for profitable weight loss. They also contain many nutritional vitamins and minerals.
Drink plenty of water
People sometimes confuse thirst with hunger. You can stop drinking more energy when a glass of water is all you really need.
Read food labels
Knowing how to check food labels can help you choose healthier options. Use Calorie Facts to find out how a unique diet fits into your daily calorie allowance on a weight loss plan.
Cut down on alcohol
A typical glass of wine can contain as much energy as a piece of chocolate. Over time, consuming too much can lead to weight gain without difficulty.
Do not ban foods
Don't cut out any ingredients from your weight loss plan, especially the ones you love. Banning ingredients will make you crave them more. There's no reason you can't experience the occasional deal as long as you stay within your daily calorie allowance.
