Weight-loss Tip: If you have trouble controlling how much you eat when it comes to your favourite food, don’t buy it. Eat it only in restaurants.

Weight-loss Tip: Savour your food. Take time to enjoy the different flavours of each mouthful. If you eat slowly, you’ll be more satisfied with less food.

Weight-loss Tip: When deciding on a diet for you, remember to cut down, not out. Trim portions of food instead of removing entire categories, eg. carbs, fats.

Weight-loss Tip: Here are some weight-loss friendly foods: leafy greens, lean beef, chicken breasts, boiled potatoes, sweet potatoes and turnips.

Weight-loss Tip: Although fruits contain sugar, they have a low energy density and take a while to chew. The fibre prevents sugar from being released quickly.

Weight-loss Tip: Make sure to eat enough. Eating too little can backfire. Never have less than 1 200 calories a day, or you may slow down your metabolism.

Weight-loss Tip: Don’t skip meals. When you get too hungry, you’re less likely to make healthy choices and your body will start storing fat.

Weight-loss Tip: Avoid sugary drinks and fruit juice. These are the most fattening things you can put into your body. Avoiding them can help you lose weight.
