Eat This and the Pounds Will Drop

Trying to lose a few? Aren't we all. You’ll lose even more if you set out a plate of this before each meal: apple wedges.

Eating a bit of high-fiber fruit -- like a small apple or pear -- before each meal is a proven weight-loss booster.

Fruit Booster
You've seen those ads for weight-loss pills that promise to help you lose even more weight when you diet. It's possible that apple wedges could give those pills a run for the money. In a recent study where women were divided up into fruit-before-meals and no-fruit-before-meals groups, the fruit group lost more weight -- even though they all followed the same reduced-calorie diet. The key? Choosing fruit that's high in fiber but low in calories (read: high water content, like apples). Here's why fiber and water make a fabulous combo.

More Waist-Shrinking Diet Tips
Let's face it: We need all the help we can get when it comes to whittling our waists. Here are some other easy changes that help support that effort:
Have a boiled egg instead of a bagel for breakfast. Here's why.
Change what, not how much, you eat. Here's what we mean by that.
Hit the snooze button. Here's how a little extra sleep helps.
