Think of These as Mini-Resolutions...

Tuesday January 2, 2007
If you're having trouble deciding on what to focus on to make your 2007 weight loss resolution happen, here are some ideas:

  • Keep a food diary. Keeping a record of what you eat, how much, and when will go a long way in helping you find problem areas and stay on track.
  • Count calories. Using calorie-count.com will help you make your food diary even better. You may be shocked to find how many calories are in foods you eat regularly.
  • Switch to whole grains. Switching to whole grains will improve your blood sugar and your fiber-intake, not to mention cut carbs and calories.
  • Cut down on liquid calories. Cutting back on the number of calories you take in via sodas, fruit juices, and alcoholic beverages is a "painless" way to cut calories, but it's highly effective.
