1. You should remember the one to one ratio when you eat proteins and carbohydrates. This simply means that if you eat four ounces of protein you should not eat over four ounces of carbohydrates.

2. Keep in mind that there are a lot of things you can do on a daily basis to lose weight with out even really trying. In fact I recently did a Hub Page on 18 Ways To Lose Weight With Out Trying. Be sure that you check it out.

3. Water is one of the most over looked secrets of weight loss. If your trying to lose weight and stay on a diet you should drink at least eight big glasses of water a day. Try drinking your water over crushed ice and if you like add fresh squeezed lemon juice to it to help your body get rid of toxins.

4. Breakfast is a lot more important than you may think. Eat breakfast every day and consider making oatmeal a part of your breakfast as often as possible. Oatmeal gets your metabolism going like nothing else will and if you eat a good breakfast you won't be hungry later in the day like you would if you went with out breakfast.

5. You need to learn not to eat during the last two hours before you go to bed. This may be very hard to do at first. If you absolutely have to have something eat a teaspoon of peanut butter and drink a big glass of water with lemon juice over crushed ice. Over time try to go with just the glass of water with lemon over crushed ice.

6. Start trying to eat six small meals a day instead of three big meals. But make it six small meals. You need to keep a close eye on portion size. The purpose of the six meals is so that you will not be hungry throughout the day and you don't have as long to wait between meals.

7. If you absolutely have to have something to eat it is always best to eat a snack of protein. You can cook skinned and boned chicken thighs in the refrigerator that you have steamed and eat one if you get to the point where you have to have something to eat. But you really need to stop eating between meals.

i know that everyone wants to lose weight quickly but its important for you to retrain yourself to change your eating habits and start to eat healthy. If you can learn to eat healthy you will be successful in your weight loss endeavors. Keep in mind that if you have a lot of weight to lose that it didn't all go on fast and its not going to all come off fast.

Try to add walking in as your exercise and try to walk a few feet further every day. The more you can walk the better off you will be but don't overdo it at the start of your weight loss plan or you'll give up. Try your walking on a flat track or flat surface and buy yourself a good pair of walking shoes.
