   Do not skip meals. The worst thing you can do when trying to lose weight is skiping meals. It has just the opposite effect of what you want. You need to have at least four regular meals every day.

   You might seem happy and feel that you’re losing those unwanted flabs on your belly and thighs by skipping meals. But remember, this won’t last long. Your body can’t tolerate having insufficient food to fuel the energy that you are using up everyday.

   If you start skipping one or two meals a day, your stored calories will be used up instead of the energy that should have been provided by your meals. If you eat just one huge sandwich in one day, it’ll end up right at your problem area (i.e. highs, buttocks, hips).

   Avoid crash diets [severely restricting calorie intake]. They are bad for health and you will gain what you have lost once you take a break. Crash diets are not a solution to weight loss. It might seem as if you have lost few pounds but the moment you give up on the crash diet every thing will bounce back with a vengeance. Take a look at it in this way. Do you think that it is possible for a person to survive on a crash diet for the rest of his or her life? Certainly not! So at some time or the other, you will have to give up the crash diet and then you will see for yourself that a crash diet does more harm than good on the long run. Crash diets may have a lot to promise, but very rarely do these promises ring true. Crash diets are things people go on in order to wear an old dress or suit for a particular occasion. That’s the only purpose that they serve as far as I can see.

   Graze 5 to 6 times a day. Instead of sticking to just three meals a day, try grazing. Grazing means try having 5 or 6 smaller meals instead of three king sized meals. It is an excellent way of having smaller quantities of food.

   Control that sweet tooth. Remember that sweet things generally mean more calories. It is natural that we have cravings for sweet things especially chocolates and other confectionary. Go easy on theses things and each time you consume something sweet understand that it is going to add on somewhere.
