1
Start right
Begin each day with a nutritious breakfast. Studies show that people who eat breakfast have a healthier body weight than those who skip.
2

Divide your plate
Designate half of your plate for veggies and salad (watch the dressing). A quarter should be lean protein, like fish, chicken or beef. And the last quarter is for a grain product like pasta, rice or bread.
3

Drink your H2O.
Feeling tired or hungry? You may just be thirsty. Water helps your body transport nutrients and eliminate toxins. Add a cucumber or lemon slice to jazz it up!
4

Ride the wave. 
Feel yourself getting ready to overindulge? These urges come in waves. If you can allow 10 to 15 minutes to pass, chances are the urge will pass with it. Occupy the time by moving around, calling a friend, taking a shower, going on a walk, or doing something relaxing and positive for yourself…you are definitely worth it!
5

Go for fruit.
Fruit is packed with vitamins and antioxidants and it contains fibre, which is an important part of a healthy diet. Try some yummy berries: blueberries, raspberries, strawberries—they’re great on top of cereal or with a little low fat cottage cheese.
