1. Be positive and happy. You'll automatically want to look and feel better if you have a positive attitude, and you'll lose weight faster and easier.
2. Replace soda with water. You may not realize how many calories you are consuming each day, but watch how the pounds drop off when you replace those sugar drinks with healthy water. You'll have more energy too!
3. Walk everywhere you can. Park far away from the store entrances and walk in. Get a pedometer to keep track of all the steps you take, it will greatly motivate you to walk even more!
4. Don't go on fad diets. Instead, make a change to your lifestyle, something you can keep up with. Fad diets are just that, a "trend," and not something you'd want to stick with all your life. No one wants to cut out all carbs or eat only grapefruit or cabbage soup forever!
5. Join a gym. You may have lots of exercise equipment at home but do you really use it? I mean for more than a clothes hanger!
6. Have a goal in mind, even if it is a small one. Setting goals keeps you motivated as you achieve each one and move on to a new one. Don't make your weight loss goals too big to begin with or you will get discouraged.
7. Read the food labels before buying. If it contains high fructose corn syrup, leave it at the store. Buy as much as you can from the produce section, and visit your local farmer's market for a great selection of vegetables and fruits.
8. Eat a salad before your main meal. This will take the edge off your appetite and you won't tend to overeat as much.
9. Don't eat too fast. Slow down and savor your food. Many times you will eat more than you need because you haven't eaten slow enough to even realize you are full.
10. Don't forget to reward yourself! If you've done good, go ahead and have that piece of cake you've been craving. It does no good to deny yourself for too long because eventually you are going to give in and over-indulge.
