5 Ways to Drop a Pound This Week

Here are 5 Suggestions you can use right now.

1. Don't eat while watching television.
You can become so engrossed in your program
that don't realize how much you are eating.
Be mindful when you are eating.

2. Don't skip meals.
When you do, you eat more at your next meal
and usually eat the wrong foods.
Make sure you have back up foods you can eat if
you're in a rush (like fruit, trail mix, etc.)

3. Read labels - check fat, sugar and carb content
as well as ingredients (if there are more words that
you can't pronounce than can, avoid it)
Educate yourself about what exactly you are putting
in your body.

4. Avoid shopping when you are hungry - eat first!
If the food never gets into the house, you won't eat it.
Out of sight out of mind.

5. Don't sample when you are cooking.
A taste here, a little bite there and before you know it you've
eaten an entire portions without sitting down at the table!
Remember, "hunger is the best ingredient."
