REDUCE CALORIE INTAKE

As we said above, eating fewer calories than you normally would is a great way to drop the weight. Here are some tips to reduce your calorie consumption:

• Count the calories and log them in a food journal. You can download an app to help you monitor your intake.
• Eat only during mealtimes, and reduce snacking and avoid eating anything after dinner. The simple act of reducing the window of time where you can consume food is in itself a great weight loss tactic. Aim for no calorie intake after 7pm at night. If you feel hungry at night, try a big glass of water.
• Eliminate those condiments and sauces. Use herbs and spices for added taste and flavor.
• Fill your plate with vegetables, particularly leafy greens.
• Eat only lean proteins, like fish and chicken. Stick to grilled and boiled meat, instead of fried.
• Do not drink your calories. Avoid sugary beverages and alcoholic drinks. Stick to only zero-calorie water at all cost. Take a break from alcohol, particularly weeknights and sub out sugar in coffee for an artificial sweetener.
