Eat fewer calories: Helpful weight loss diets include natural foods that take time to chew but contain few calories. Examples include carrots, celery, and iceberg lettuce (without salad dressing). When shopping for fruits, buy small ones no bigger than a tennis ball, because fruits contain natural sugar. Drinks without calories include water and green tea. A calorie is a calorie, regardless of where it comes from.

Portion size, exerci: Try drinking 1-2 glasses of water before each meal to partly fill the stomach; then you will feel full more quickly. Serve your meals on a salad plate (instead to dinner plate) to make smaller portion look larger. Eat 4-6 small meals rather than 2 or 3 large ones. Avoid fast foods & high glycemic index foods; avoid trans fats & fried foods. If diabetes runs in your family get checked for that.
