Third: Eat more, NOT less. Basically you just want to replace high calorie snacks with healthier food. Here’s a real comparison that’s quite an eye opener:
A regular size Snickers Bar has 313 calories and not much nutritional value. To get the same number of calories and many times the nutrition you could eat the following meal…
* A dinner salad
* A juicy 4 oz baked or grilled chicken breast plus…
* A full serving of brown rice plus…
* A large serving of vegetables AND…
* Still have 50 to 100 calories left over! Fresh fruit for dessert anyone?
Put another way, you could have a delicious three course meal that will help slim you down or two bites of a candy bar. Is that crazy or what?
Fourth: Eat more often. Eat meals like the one above five or six times a day. And here’s a good rule of thumb when planning those meals… When you look down at your plate you should see about 50% vegetables (plenty of greens), 30% protein (chicken, fish, lean beef, etc.), with a remainder of good complex carbs (brown rice, yams, etc – NOT pasta or breads.)
Fifth: Stay hydrated. Don’t let yourself get thirsty if you can avoid it. Sip water all day long. Once you feel thirst, your body is already starting to dehydrate and that’s when crazy food cravings start to kick in along with urges for sugary (including artificially sweetened) drinks that will actually dehydrate you even more and increase those cravings!
Sixth: Don’t kick yourself too hard if you splurge once in a while. Think of having a piece of cake as getting a flat tire on your car. It is reparable. Just fix it and get on with the journey. Getting upset and eating the rest of the cake makes about as much sense as flattening the other three tires. It’s a great excuse to be stuck where you are. But do you want excuses or results?
Seventh and most important: Get some backup. We all need a little help now and then. Professional bodybuilders and models don’t do it alone. Why should you have to? And don’t worry about investing a lot. There is no need for that. You can use one of the advanced scientifically designed approaches that I strongly recommend like “calorie shifting”

However you decide to do it, just remember, you CAN do it!
