Self Help Mantras - Weight Loss Tips

WEIGHT LOSS TIPS

1) Drink 8-10 glasses of water each day - this helps flush your body of impurities and fat. You 
can also substitute a few glasses of water for green or herbal tea. 


2) Break up your meals into 5 or 6 smaller ones - this will help speed up your metabolism and keep you from getting too hungry in between meals. 


3) Increase your fruit and vegetable intake - these are packed with vitamins. 


4) Decrease your fat intake - try for no more than 20 grams per day. 


5) Exercise for 30 minutes each day - take a walk, or play a game with your kids. Just get 
moving. 


6) Find a hobby - take up knitting or painting to keep your hands busy. 


7) Don't eat that late night snack - Try not to eat for at least 2 hours before going to bed. 


8) Listen to your body - your body will tell you when it is full, hungry, stressed, tired. Learn 
the signs and obey what your body is telling you. 


9) Increase your fiber - choose whole grain pasta and bread. 


10) Cleanse and detoxify - this may be the most important. Rid your body of harmful toxins and chemicals, while allowing it to function normally.
