Never Shop on Empty Stomach

Never go shopping on an empty stomach! Shopping with a growling tummy will not only blow your diet but bust your budget. You will buy items that are not included on your household shopping list. So eat before you go to the grocery store.

Liquid/Meal Replacement Diet Plan

Meal replacement or liquid supplement diets are designed to provide users with a fixed number of calories as well as all the necessary vitamins and minerals required for good dietary health. Eaten as an alternative to regular foods, liquid diet meals usually take the form of shakes or soups, or differing types of bars. Although taste can vary between brands, a liquid meal replacement plan (eg. SlimFast, Scan Diet) typically offers a convenient method of healthy weight reduction.

Weight Loss Tips - High Calorie Eating

High Calorie Daily Eating Habits

It's easy to fall into bad (high-calorie) eating habits. For example, a daily diet which includes: regular butter (35 calories/tsp) and mayonnaise (100/tbsp), too much cooking oil (120 calories/tbsp), snacks of tortilla chips (150 calories/11 chips), a soda (100 calories/cup) or a donut (350 calories/3oz) and before long you've added 700-800 calories without even realising it. This explains why we gain weight even though we may not "overeat."
