1. Beware of soft drinks
If you drink a can of soda (140 to 150 calories) every day, after a year there will be 50 000 calories eaten up almost 7 kilos over (simple mathematical calculation!). Liquid calories do not suffice anymore because fat and calories so strong and the body tends to ingest more fluids to not feel full.

2. Record what you eat
Easy to forget everything we eat. Especially the “traps” that we do. Believe it or not, studies have shown that carefully record everything you eat and drink, help you lose weight and keep it later. Try it!

3. Weigh yourself often
Contrary to what many think, weigh yourself is often a good tool against weight. Did you know that most members of the National Weight Control Registry are weighed once a week and almost half do it every day?, The result is that the average has lost almost 30 kilos and has remained for six years.

4. Consume volume, not calories
A study by the University of Pennsylvania showed that to be satisfied is that eating certain volume. The key is eating less but eating foods that contain few calories in relation to their weight. The best for this purpose is high-fiber food and water as vegetables and fruits.

5. Pay attention to portions
Size matters and much … If we are accustomed from childhood to eat large portions, we will continue with the habit of eating more than our bodies really need.
