Some tips to control overweight

 

Weight loss tip 1: Measure your waist. For women, your waist should be less than 32 inches, for men, less than 37 inches. Have a good look at your eating habits. The best way to do this is to keep a food diary.

                                                                                                                                

Weight loss tip 2: Eat a piece of fruit before lunch or dinner. This will help you eat a little less and counts as 1 of your 5 a day. Learn to say no. Don't accept every invitation to dinner and drinks. Suggest activities like a weekend hike or dance lessons.

Weight loss tip 3: Use a smaller plate. Most people use a very large dinner plate, which normally results in far too much food being eaten. Unless you are doing two or three hours exercise every day, you don’t need a big plate.

Weight loss tip 4: Never fill your stomach when you eat; always leave some room. You will stop feeling hungry long before you feel full. ‘Filling’ your stomach means you are eating too much.

Weight loss tip 5: Go for vegetable, chicken or fish dishes over fattier meat dishes and avoid creamy sauces in favour of tomato-based sauces.

Weight loss tip 6: You are more likely to buy treat foods when you are hungry and feel low in energy, so try to avoid shopping on an empty stomach. A good tip is to drink some water or buy a piece of fruit to munch on as you go.

Weight loss tip 7: Eat slowly! Enjoy your meal and the company. Give your body the time to give you the signal that you are satisfied. Otherwise you may overeat.
