Make a list of all the foods that you crave. Each day, pick one to take out of your diet. No matter what, you absolutely cannot eat again. Take one off until there are no bad foods.

Eat in front of a mirror naked except for tight underwear. Do you want him to see that?

Curl up in a ball if you have hunger pains. Look at those rolls! You aren’t near hungry enough to get rid of those!

The smell of coffee suppresses appetite.

Don’t carry extra money, you’ll be tempted to spend it on food.

Avoid alcohol, tons of calories. Luckily, alcohol is intolerable if you’re chewing peppermint gum.

Chew gum while you cook for others so you won’t sample.

Smoke a cigarette if you’re hungry. Starting the habit for this reason- bad idea. Symptoms of withdrawal from cigarettes include RAPID WEIGHT GAIN.

Caffeine speeds up metabolism, but you can become dependant in the same way as diet pills.

Before you eat, count to 100. Usually that’s all it takes to realize you don’t want it.

Spin in circles: burns calories, induces nausea.

If hungry, follow the 4D’s:
Distance yourself from the food;
Delay eating;
Distract yourself;
Decide what your goals really are.

Diet soda works like a miracle at filling you. No calories, obviously. Drink one on a walk, your stomach will hurt a bit and you won’t want to eat for a while.
 

Think of something disgusting and put the food you crave beside it mentally. Recall a mortifying event and tell yourself that it was caused by the food. Soon you will automatically associate the two.

It takes twelve hours for the body to start feeding off its own fat.

Make a plan for the week. Buy only food on this plan. Have nothing laying around except for what you have pre-calculated into your allowed daily calorie budget.

If you’ve eaten an acceptable amount of food but are still hungry, wait twenty minutes and you’ll probably feel full.

Eat with your non-dominant hand.

Cut your food into tiny bites and eat very slowly. After you swallow a bite, chew on nothing for a little while, and then take another bite.

Give yourself tiny portions. If you put more than you need or even want on your plate, you’ll feel obligated to eat it.

Weigh yourself before and after eating.

Put your food money in a jar; buy something inedible at the end of the month as a reward for everything you didn’t eat.

EXERCISE TIPS:

• Drink plenty of water about a half hour before you plan to exercise. Don't drink it immediatly before or you'll get cramps. Drink alot of water when you finish too.
• If your lifting weights to bulk up then you want to use heavier weights and lift 12-15 reps. If you want to make muscles long and lean then you need to lift lighter weights and do reps until your arms give out.
• Remember to breathe evenly when you exercise, especially in jogging. It keeps cramps away.
• Don't lift weights while your fasting and not getting any protien at all. You'll end up destroying more muscle then you create.
• Jumping rope helps to get rid of cellulite.
• Do crunches not sit ups because sit ups will actually make your stomach larger, while crunches just tone it up.

ik alot of you are into crash dieting ( hell so am i) so i thought i would do a little on it..

A piece of dessert consisting of 400 calories may only require 150 calories to digest by our body, resulting in a net gain of 250 calories which is added to our body fat !

On the other hand, a 5 calorie piece of celery may require 150 calories to digest, but resulting in a net loss of 145 calories from our body fat !! The more you eat, the more you lose weight!!!

The negative calorie foods contain sufficient vitamins & minerals that produce enzymes in quantities sufficient to break down not only its own calories, but additional calories present in digestion as well. This is the secret of The Negative Calorie Foods.

Vegetables
Asparagus Beet Root Broccoli Cabbage Carrot Cauliflower Celery	Chicory Hot Chili Cucumber Garden cress Garlic Green Beans	Lettuce Onion Radish Spinach Turnip Zucchini
Fruits
Apple Blueberries Cantaloupe Cranberry Grapefruit	Honeydew Lemon/Lime Mango Orange Papaya Peach	Pineapple Raspberry Strawberry Tomato Tangerine Turnip Watermelon

Calories from these foods are much harder for the body to breakdown and process. In other words, the body has to work harder in order to extract calories from these foods. This gives these foods a tremendous natural fat-burning advantage.
