Weight Loss Secrets
Use Your Kitchen Timer. If you are having a food craving, set a kitchen timer for 15 minutes and occupy yourself otherwise during that time. Only eat if you are still hungry after 15 minutes.
Don't be a "juice junkie." Use bathroom cups to cut down on juice portions - and therefore your sugar intake. Take your favorite juice and put a splash in your water bottle for flavor all day.
Rate snacks on a 1-10 scale. Before you eat, make sure the snack registers as a 10. If it doesn't, pass it by. This helps you eat one treat as opposed to many.

Make your sugar work for you. Instead of eating it, use 5 lb. bags of sugar as weights to build muscles during TV commercials.
Purge your fat clothes. Doing this gives you no way to get back to your larger size. There are no such things as fat clothes.
Practice the 10-minute rule. If you cheat on diet it's ok, but you have to walk for 10 minutes to get yourself back in the right frame of mind.
WEIGHT LOST: 130 lbs
Weight Loss Secrets
Eat breakfast. Eating a breakfast packed with fiber and protein makes you less hungry throughout the day.
Find a replacement for your trigger food. You aren't going to give up your favorite foods for your whole life. Find a healthy recipe to replace pizza, cheeseburgers or pasta so that you feed your cravings without falling off the wagon.
Eat mini meals. Five to six mini-meals, instead of 3 large ones, help keep your metabolism revved all day long.
