7 Ways to Eat and Lose Weight

Many methods have been published as weight loss miracle workers but there is a very simple way to lose weight......tackle the source. How and What you eat determines how much weight you gain. Here are simple ways of losing that stubborn weight without dieting.
 
#1: Eat lots of fruit.
This means eating 5 different parts of fruit. You can take them together or separately. You can also make a smoothie or fruit juice from the fruits but do not remove the fibre in the fruit by squeezing out the juice. The fibre makes the fruit more filling and helps ease your digestion.

#2: Drink lots of water
Enough has been said on this tip. Water helps your metabolism and digestion. Improves blood flow and keeps you healthy. The most important point to note is that warm or hot water is more effective when you want to lose weight than cold water. Warm drinking water will make you lose weight faster.

#3: Eat more whole cereals
This includes brown rice, brown flour, enriched products. More beans, peas, green grams. These are an important source of protein and they pack less calories than meat. Polished cereals have a higher concentration of carbs than whole grains.

#4: Eat more white meat
This does not mean that you should completely forgo red meat but eating more fish, skinned chicken and sea food will go a long way to helping you lose those extra pounds. The vegetable portions should be twice as much as your meat and carbs too!

#5: Less cooking fat and more boiled food
This goes without saying. However if you have to use the cooking fat, the liquid oil is less likely to coat your arteries and accumulate around your organs.

#6: Eat smaller portions of food
The less you eat, the younger and thinner you look. This is a proven scientific fact. Your body can digest only so much food. The important thing to note is that you eat to fuel your body not to become full. Don't stop, the best is yet to come............

 #7: Snack more often
Don't jump for joy yet! Snack more nuts, carrots and dry fruits. This is to provide energy for your body and to keep you in an "unhungry" state. You are less likely to feel hungry if you snack often.

With these simple tips, you do not have to kill yourself to lose weight. Feel free to post more tips.
