Use this easy-to-follow and super healthy diet plan to lose the first 10, the last 10, or any amount of pounds in between! Because this is a balanced and flexible program, you can stay on this diet as long as it takes.

You need to lose weight by keeping track of what you eat. Cut out fats by eliminating butter, margarine, mayonnaise, oil from your sandwiches and food preparations. You don’t have to write down the calorie count, but write down what you eat.

Use skim milk and make a habit to drink tea. If you insist on using whole milk at least use two percent milk in your diet. This helps cutting down on your fat intake.

You?ll need to draw the limits on the sugar treats to three times per week maximum and include good sources of protein at meal, chicken, fish, legumes, peanut, cottage cheese, eggs or yogurt. Eat at least one meatless lunch and dinner each week to reduce fat, increase fiber, and get yourself into the habit of building meals around whole grains, beans and vegetables.

Eat at least two servings of fresh fruit every day. Choose whatever type of fruit is in season. Instead of fruit juice for breakfast or snack, drink water. Add a slice of lemon or lime for zest. Include two servings of vegetables with lunch and dinner, for a total of at least four servings per day.

Kill the thought the eating food or snacks while watching TV. Many studies show that people watching TV and eating tend to eat more and opt for higher calorie snacks high in fat and sugar.

Choose calories you can chew that means only calorie-free beverages (except for milk). Sodas are rife with empty calories, and fruit juices provide less fiber and vitamins per calorie than the fruit they’re made from. Plan ahead for meals and snacks so you know exactly what you plan to eat. Last-minute choice tends to be higher in calories and lower in satisfaction.
