The 100 Calorie Diet gives you the top 10 diet tips in the world! Let’s take a look:
Diet Tip #1
Diet one meal at a time, one day at a time. Anyone can be on a diet for a day! After you've had breakfast, you can look forward to lunch and after lunch you can look forward to dinner. Enjoy each meal as it comes but don't get sidetracked. Do not think about yesterday, do not think about tomorrow. Think in terms of today only. This is a very powerful tip - use it!
Diet Tip #2
When planning your day, stay close to what you would normally have, just choose the items within your calorie range for that meal. If cereal is what you like for breakfast, by all means have cereal. But if you like to have doughnuts, you can have 2 glazed doughnuts for about 400 calories. If you like to have a salad for lunch, have a salad. But if you like to go to Burger King®, have a Whopper Jr.® and a cola. If your usual dinner is baked chicken and vegetables, enjoy. But if you like pizza, have 2 slices of pizza with a beer. With The 100 Calorie Diet, you will lose weight while still eating the foods you love!
Diet Tip #3
Don't think in terms of "diet" foods. Remember no foods are forbidden. If you start out The 100 Calorie Diet trying to deprive yourself of the foods you love, you are setting yourself up for failure. Plan your meals with the foods you enjoy, just make sure to have the measured portion of it.
Diet Tip #4
Eat more to lose weight. If you are one of those persons who like to eat large quantities of food, then study The 100 Calorie Food Counter to see what foods you like that give you the largest quantity for 100 calories. Refer to the FREE foods and FREE recipe sections to make a list of the FREE foods you enjoy.
Diet Tip #5
I know you've heard it a million times and you may be sick of it, but here goes. Make sure to drink your water. How much? As a minimum, you need to drink ten, 8 oz. glasses of water per day. Why? When you drink enough water you're much less likely to be hungry. And interestingly enough, the more water you drink, the less water weight you will keep on your body. More importantly, water helps to filter out impurities in your blood and carries waste to the kidneys for elimination. Water is wonderful for your skin, lubricates your joints and cushions your organs. You need water to keep your brain functioning properly and to transport nutrients in and out of cells. Convinced yet? We hope so! The next question is what kind of water? Drink only bottled or filtered water. Also try Perrier®, club soda, seltzer or sparkling waters with a twist of lemon or lime. Learn to love water!
Diet Tip #6
Don't let the “Fat Monster” talk you into something you don't really want to do. You know what your pitfalls are and what that Fat Monster will try to talk you in to. He may tell you to sneak off to Dunkin' Donuts® and eat doughnuts until you're stuffed or he may tell you “Who cares anyway?”, so watch out for him! He will show up no doubt, but when he does be prepared. The minute he tries to talk you into something you don’t want to do, say NO or STOP or X him out in your mind. Don't let him take control because if you do, he'll win.
Diet Tip #7
It's best to plan three meals a day at the same time of day if possible. This is a physical as well as mental way of eating which you should make a habit of for the rest of your life. If you want to have a snack, make sure it’s a planned snack.
Diet Tip #8
Keep a positive attitude and congratulate yourself for taking the first step towards a thin life. Keep negativity out of your life whether it’s your own negativity or others’.
Diet Tip #9
Follow your plan but don’t make it a big stressful deal. Don’t make dieting more difficult than it actually is.
Diet Tip #10
Keep yourself and your mind busy. Don’t fall into the trap of eating out of boredom. Start a new hobby, take some classes, make new friends, read a book.
