Tips On How To Drop Five Pounds

As I told you before, anything giving ideas on how to lose weight always catches my attention. A really good tip on how to lose 5 pounds is portion patrol!!! With Thanksgiving and the Holiday Season approaching, making wise choices will be the key to not gaining those extra pounds. Another tip according to an article in the December 2009 issue of "Good Housekeeping" is to snack on the 100 calorie snack packs. They suggest you think of them as training wheels for dieting.

In a University of Colorado Denver study, 59 adults ate snack food daily for two weeks. Half of group munched from 100-calorie bags for one week, followed by the same treats from large bags the next; for the other half, the order was reversed. The outcome was that those who first "trained with small packs took in 852 fewer calories from the big bags.

This is a good thing to do with our children. Everyone will be able to recognize the right amount of snack to eat, and they will soon be able to hopefully know when enough is enough. There are so many choices these days. Just making wise decision on portions can make a difference in you and your families waistline. Another tip for getting smaller portions is eating from smaller plates. You just can't fit as much food on smaller plates. Try it and see if it makes a difference!
