Drinking plenty of water, getting enough sleep, and preparing your own food makes it easier to control portion sizes.

Drinking enough water is the top secret to help you maintain a slim figure. A well-hydrated body helps the digestive system and metabolism work more effectively. Drinking enough water also helps reduce cravings.

Saving “special” treats for truly special occasions can help you control your weight. For example, cake should be reserved for birthdays. If you eat cake every day, you will inevitably gain weight.

Enjoying your meal helps you digest better. Eating with family, friends or especially with the opposite sex will help you be more conscious when eating, not eating too much or too fast.

Don't waste your time on diet foods. Foods labeled "diet" are not as good as you think because even though they are low in calories, they are still processed, contain preservatives, and are not good for the digestive system.

There is no such thing as a total food ban. No food is bad. It is the uncontrolled eating that is bad. You can enjoy your favorite foods in moderation.

Getting enough sleep helps boost metabolism, restore energy, and make you healthier and more alert. Sleeping early also limits hunger in the middle of the night, causing you to crave late-night snacks and gain weight.

Occasionally, indulge in unhealthy foods like burgers, fries, or a can of Coke. When you don't feel the urge to overindulge, it's easier to control your hunger.

Stay away from drinks labeled "diet" because they may not contain calories but increase hunger, making you want to eat more.

Getting used to preparing your own food is the most effective way to lose weight. Cooking for yourself allows you to control your menu and portion sizes easily. Best of all, enjoying fresh food right after cooking is good for your health and your waistline.

Forget counting calories. 1,000 calories from fast food is different from 1,000 calories from healthy foods. Make friends with healthy foods like avocados, olive oil, nuts, coconut water, and dark chocolate.
