I hope you’re having a good start to your weekend, and I wanted to give you some quick weight loss tips to help establish proper habits that lead to lasting weight loss:

1. Keep it simple - Complex weight loss programs simply lead to frustration and eventually falling back into bad habits.Are You Ready to Diet? Again?

2. Take Control of What You Eat - controlling your eating habits is necessary to losing weight and keeping it off.  A quote I love is from the Bible that says: A man without self-control is like a city without walls.

3. Eat Frequently - Focus on having 5-6 small to medium sized meals through the day.

4. Eat More Fruits, Vegetables and Whole Grains - Stay away from processed foods!  And try to eat organic whenever possible.

5. Cut Down on Sugar - sugar turns to fat in your body, think of simple sugar your kryptonite (sorry for the Superman reference!).

So take these tips and go out and have a great weekend and practice these good habits, your health depends on it.
