1 - Track your meals in a food journal. Wether you use an app or just a old school journal, just keep track of what you eat! 2 - Emotions trigger different kind of food cravings. Use the journal to keep track of which emotions trigger what kind of foods. 3 - Counting the calories! Math do get you somewhere sometimes. Cutting back 500 calories a day is safe and will result in weight loss. 4 - Smaller plates means smaller portions. Just by replacing your plates with slightly smaller ones can increase your weight loss effort.

Many of us feel that when we are trying to lose weight or just trying to keep up a healthy eating style, that we need to cut dining out of our lives. Not true! We can enjoy dining out just as much as we did before as long as we know how to do it. 
 
When going to a restaurant, either call ahead to ask some of these questions or ask your server if they 
 
o Serve margarine instead of butter 
 
o Provide fat free (skim) milk instead of whole milk or creamer 
 
o Serve salad dressing on the side 
 
o Cut off any visible fat from meat or poultry 
 
o Grant special requests 
 
Make your meal selection based on how the food is prepared. Here are some healthy choices: 
 
o Steamed 
 
o Broiled 
 
o Baked 
 
o Poached 
 
o Roasted 
 
o Garden Fresh 
 
Try to avoid ordering any appetizers and try not to grab for bread. You can even ask your server to not bother bringing bread to the table. Going out to dinner is usually a treat to ourselves, so if you want to splurge a little, have a half a piece of bread or order half of an appetizer to split with the others you are dining with. Same with desserts, share a dessert and only have one or two tastes. 
 
Don't skip those going out to dinner plans, just make healthier choices.

Here are 11 of the best healthy eating tips that will allow you to accomplish your weight loss goals and start living a healthier and happier lifestyle: 
 
1. Eat 6 small meals per day (and be sure to eat smaller portion sizes) 
 
2. Eat only whole grain carbs such as brown rice, whole wheat bread and pasta, and avoid refined carbs such as WHITE flour, rice, pasta, and bread 
 
3. Eat a complete breakfast - skim milk, oatmeal egg whites, fresh fruit, wheat bread, and reduced fat cheeses are all great options 
 
4. Keep healthy snacks on hand at work. Salt-free nuts, granola, and veggies are great snacks and will save you a trip to the vending machine 
 
5. Learning how to read a food label is a crucial step in eating healthier 
 
6. Cut WAY back on the amount of sugar you're eating. Choose sugar-free products and sweeteners such as Splenda instead and avoid foods with "high fructose corn syrup," "dextrose," and "sucrose" 
 
7. Drinking red wine in moderation is good for your heart (but more than 1-2 glasses per day can have the opposite effect) 
 
8. Eat more vegetables - try eating 3-4 servings a day for a week. You will be amazed by the results 
 
9. Indulge occasionally. Treat yourself to a couple slices of pizza, a hamburger, or ice cream once per week. 
 
10. If you're eating out, check out the healthy menu options ahead of time at Healthy Dining Finder 
 
11. Learn how to cook healthy food - use methods such as broiling, grilling, baking, poaching, steaming, stir frying, and microwaving.

Living a sedentary life without being mindful about what you eat is one of the worst things you can inflict upon yourself. If you're not physically challenged and can go out on your way to exercise and prepare your meals, then there's no reason you can't adapt diet healthy living. Perhaps you've been slacking off lately but that's okay. Just make sure you don't keep on going down that slippery slope or you'll risk having all sorts of unhealthy diseases like diabetes and cancer. 
 
Here are some helpful tips on how to maintain diet healthy living all the time: 
 
Eat moderate amounts of sugary foods as well as refined-grains. Yes, our body needs them but too much of anything is just disastrous. This couldn't be truer if you're diabetic in which case, your body can only handle so much sugar. Focus on other food groups like vegetables and fruits that are rich in protein but have low levels of sugar. 
 
Water up. Your body consists of about 70 percent water and you need to keep that level to avoid your body organs and biochemical processes from malfunctioning. Water is like a lubricant that delivers all vitamins and minerals all throughout your body. And it is also like a cleansing agent that washes away all toxins and impurities. 
 
Keep tabs with what you eat. Don't go overboard. Make sure you're within acceptable levels of calories and fats. Consult a food chart for the next few weeks until you get the hang of how to measure the amounts of nutrients that you get from every food.

If you are happy with the way you look you can achieve any goal. This will give you the self confidence you need to make all your dreams come true. Healthy living and exercise are essential for a good looking body. Follow some useful tips and change your entire life. 
 
Avoid taking any pills for losing weight. You can succeed this simply by doing sport and eating healthy. Find the motivation to work for your body and health. Keep in mind that you might give up at some things. For example you need to stop eating fast food or sweets. You can replace these with some healthy food. 
 
Your diet must contain a lot of fruits and vegetables. This way your body will be provided with a lot of vitamins. This is the best way to get the energy for burning calories. Instead of cookies you can eat oranges or bananas. 
 
Try to choose the sport you like the most. This will make it easier for you to exercise. For example not everybody loves running. If you prefer biking you should do this every day. To make exercising more fun you can do it together with a friend. 
 
If your job is only one hour walking you can give up driving to work. Try biking or walking. This will also save you the gas money. If necessary you can wake up earlier to be sure that you get in time to work. You will be exercising almost every day. 
 
Try not to eat very late. Have three healthy meals a day. One of the biggest mistakes people do to lose weight is not eating enough. This can be very dangerous for your body and it's not an effective way to lose weight. Take care of your body by eating healthy and exercising.

I love birthdays. People call you and you realize how blessed you are.I love birthdays. 
 
At the same time, you start to think about your own mortality and your health. I don't get nearly as concerned about how long I am going to live as I do about my quality of life until I die. As I talk to patients, I get the sense that I am not alone in this. It seems most of us just want to be as healthy as possible while we are alive. 
 
Let me share with you some things we can all do to keep ourselves healthy as we age: 
 
1) Decrease the amount of calories that you eat. 
2) Increase the amount of lean protein and decrease or eliminate the simple carbohydrates. 
3) Increase the amount of fresh fruits and vegetables. You need at least four servings per day of fresh fruits and vegetables, more if possible. 
4) Get the appropriate exercise. You don't have to become a gym rat, but you do need at least four days a week of resistance training and four days a week of cardio training. The exercise should be interval type training. And don't forget flexibility exercises. 
5) Take a multivitamin supplement once a day. 
6) Get some occasional sun. Most Americans are vitamin D-deficient. The best source of vitamin D is the sun. This is not to say you should ever get a sunburn. But healthy amounts of sun have multiple benefits to your health and psychological well-being. 
 
 
7) Consider hormone replacement. As we age our hormonal balance often changes. It is wise to have your hormone levels checked at least once a year and make changes accordingly.) Put an anti-aging plan in place. If you need help with one, find a good anti-aging physician to guide you.
