Dieting is not new to most people who are overweight. They have all
tried this many times before. Some are so incensed at what their
friends are saying about them that they would go without food entirely
for a short time, only to return again to their former habits of over
eating. Going to extreme rarely does any permanent good. The only
solution is a completely new pattern of living, such as this simple
step outlined here:
1. Take smaller quantities of food: Continue with a balanced diet.
Quality, not quantity, is the rule. Be sure to include reasonable
amounts of potatoes and whole-grain cereals in your diet. Eating
slowly will help. Avoid all foods that are oily or high in fat.
2. Be careful about "left- overs": Many housewives put on weight
because they hate to see food wasted. Far better to prepare less food
and avoid the problem of "left-overs".
3. Stop nibbling between meals: Train yourself to get along on less
food. Soon you will enjoy living on a reduced diet, and you will be
surprised at how well you feel.
4. Sensible exercise: taken everyday, will help to use up those
extra calories. The best exercise is walking. Putting those large leg
muscle to work will burn up unwanted calories.
5. Avoid rich desserts: All that excess sugar and fat is high in
calories, but low in food value. Your best "exercise" is to push
yourself away from the table while you are still hungry! Stay clear of
ice-cream, pastry, rich cakes and sweets.
6. Remember, regular eating is important: Your meals should be rich
than average, well prepared, and attractively arranged on the table.
There is no reason for you not to enjoy your meals, even though you
are now taking less food that you once thought you needed.
7. Do not go hungry for long: Eating regularly but sparingly is the
best way to lose weight.
8. Be sure to eat a good breakfast: This will carry you through the
day, and you will be less tempted to nibble sweets and snacks between
meals.
9. Use these foods freely: Green vegetables, tomatoes, and carrots.
They are low in calories, but high in vitamins and minerals and have
real food value. Such things can be used to ward off hunger pains
between meals, if you must have something.
