1. Eat less, more often
2. Move everyday and at least five times a week do it hard enough to call it exercise
3. Drink a lot of water
4. Resist the urge to buy bigger pants
5. Eat a good, healthy breakfast...you have the rest of the day to mess up a good thing!

Spoil It!
Have you ever had really great dinner plans and realized that around 3 or 4 o’clock in the afternoon that you’re really getting hungry? So you tell yourself...No, we’re going out tonight and I don’t want to spoil my appetite. So you fast and go to the restaurant ravenous only to be greeted by a bread basket and a big glass of wine. Nice!! So now you’ve got that kind of...I’m hungry now...let’s order an appetizer feeling...Only thing is you are unable to control yourself with the bread which mixes with the wine to give you a quick buzz and rise in blood sugar.
Sounds like Saturday night!!
By the time the appetizer arrives...you’re feeling a little bit better. You have had just enough alcohol on an empty stomach and your body is in a fasted enough state that you just can’t pass up that entrée that’s a little less than healthy...So you get home around ten o’clock feeling bloated and dizzy and all you can think is...
Man! I wish I’d had a snack!!!
So go ahead and spoil dinner with something small when you feel those afternoon hunger pangs. It’s just what you need to help you make better choices and eat less later on! Have a great weekend!
