1) At least 8 glasses of water (get more exercise running to the loo, helps you feel fuller and gives you something with no calories to put in your mouth, I have also been told that your body needs to burn more calories to heat up your body with more water in it.)
2) Green tea - Has something in it that helps you not feel so hungry and heaps of other great reasons
3) Have breakfast - speeds up your metabolism for the day
4) Start on low calories and slowly increase to your maintenance level - your body won't have as many plateus and you will then know where your maintenance level is. (My opinion as it worked for me)
5) Walks are a great form of easy exercise (My opinion again)
6) Fiber is your friend
7) Eat bulk foods that help keep you full (carrots, asparagus, lettuce, tomatoes, pumpkin)
8) Don't deny yourself (on saturdays I have a special meal - kfc, burger fuel, my favorite smoked fish in white sauce on pasta etc) I just stay within my calorie allowance for the day
9) And this special site, track your food habits, count your calories, read the articles, take inspiration from others. - www.Sparkpeople.com is brilliant
