When you feel hungry between meals, have a sugarless cup of
tea or coffee -caffeine inhibits the appetite.
Ask yourself the following questions when you feel the urge
to eat:
a. When did I eat last?
b. What am I craving?
c. Am I hungry, or has my appetite been stimulated?
d. What is my reason for wanting to eat?
Crunches
Lay down on a mat on the floor, bending your knees slightly
so your feet are flat on the floor. Curling your hands
behind your head, slowly lift your shoulders off the mat,
squeezing your abdominal muscles with each raise.
Be sure not to pull your neck upwards; rather, make it a
natural, smooth-flowing motion. Lift only your shoulder
blades off the mat and hold that position for a span of two
seconds before slowly releasing the shoulders back to the
mat.
Be sure not to let your shoulders completely rest on the
mat before beginning your next repetition. Do three sets of
30 reps, taking only a few seconds of rest between sets.

your lower back against a chair, then press your two legs
tightly together as if they were one for as long as
possible.

Pay Attention While Eating
Weigh yourself once a week at the same time. Your weight
fluctuates constantly and you can weigh more at night than
you did in the morning, a downer if you stuck to your diet
all day. Make dining an event. Eat from your own special
plate, on your own special placemat, arranging everything
to make your meal, no matter how meager, look lovely. This
is a trick that helps chronic over-eaters and bingers pay
attention to their food instead of consuming it
unconsciously.

Fiber
Be sure to take Chitosan or fiber tablets before your main
meal. Naturally aids the body in absorbing less fat, and
creates a feeling of fullness while helping to keep your
system regular.
Fiber is excellent for weight loss and healthy too. Not
only does it make you feel full, it encourages bowel
evacuation which cleans out your system. This works
hand-in-hand with all that water you will be drinking. And
we have all read about colon cancer. Fiber is linked with a
reduced risk of colon cancer.
