    Switch all your plates in your house to 9 inch plates. An empty plate fools the brain into thinking the body's eaten enough. A small "full" plate does the same.

    Split entree's with your date, significant other, friend etc when you go out to eat. You'll save money and a ton of calories.

    Eat most your allotted calories at breakfast ( or first meal of the day). As the day wears on you'll be less hungry.

    Consume the majority of your carbs in the day and less at night.

    Some great advice so far. I'll add one more: Get more sleep!

    Most of us don't get enough and too little sleep will hinder your weight loss efforts.

    Plan your meals well in advance. It's those times when you try to decide what to eat at the last minute that the temptation to make poor food choices is greatest.

    DO NOT LET THE SCALE RULE YOU...no matter what it says because your wt will change daily, dont get discouraged by the scale just keep it moving and you will succeed.




    also make a note or print out all of these responses because they all work, just find the right combination for you & your body.

    Weight training and running... Got me to my goal. If you think you can't run, try the couch to 5k (c25k) program.

    This is exactly the advice I intended to give: Weight training to boost your metabolism, tone your muscles, and strengthen and stabilize your joints. And running or some other form of serious cardio to improve your cardiovascular fitness and increase stamina. And incidentally, to burn off calories. I'm within 5lb of my goal and haven't hit a plateau yet, and I credit that at least as much to weight training as to cardio - probably more. And of course healthy eating had a lot to do with it too.
