MODEL DIET TIPS

One of the best things you can do to look more beautiful is to slim down to your correct body weight.

Models and actresses spend enormous amounts of time and money to lose that weight, whether it’s time with their personal trainers, cleansing weekends or surgery.

Model Diet: 

Tip  N° 1: Take a photo of yourself in a bikini every week to measure your progress (and keep you motivated!).

Tip  N° 2: Keep healthy snacks in the house - sweet potatoes, low fat Jell-O and frozen fruit are good examples!.

Tip  N° 3: A thirsty body sometimes thinks it is hungry. When you get a hunger pang, try a glass of water first!

Tip  N° 4: When you are hungry, you can also try a coffee or a Diet Coke - both can make you feel fuller!.

Tip  N° 5: Eat slowly! It takes a while for your stomach to let know the brain that it is full - give it some time!

Tip  N° 6: Drink green tea between meals to curb your appetite. Keeping a box of teabags at work will help.

Tip  N° 7: Drink lots of water! Your metabolism will not function without lots of water, so keep drinking!

Tip  N° 8: Use mustard on your sandwiches - mayonnaise has little nutritional value and is loaded with fat.

Tip  N° 9: Write a food diary - it will help you pinpoint where you can improve your diet.

Tip  N° 10: Put a picture of you when you were skinny on the fridge, or the freezer where you keep the ice cream.

Tip  N° 11: Find yourself a Diet Buddy - support each other, weigh each other once a week and compare notes.

Tip  N° 12: Drink green tea or coffee before your meal in a restaurant - it helps you stay away from huge meals!

Tip  N° 13: Do not fry your food! Baking, roasting and broiling are much healthier methods.

Tip  N° 14: Switch to calorie-free diet sodas. Most normal sodas contain about 120 calories!

Tip  N° 15: Cut down on the drinking! Alcoholic drinks are high calorie and have little nutritional value.

Tip  N° 16: Use a list for your weekly shop, and try not to buy anything off the list.

Tip  N° 17: Always eat breakfast, this will get your metabolism working and actually help you lose weight!

Tip  N° 18: Chew sugarless gum between meals - it will help you to feel fuller. Tip  N° 19: Use chopsticks when you eat rice dishes - it might help you to eat slower.

Tip  N° 20: Take the skin off chicken before you eat it - this reduces the fat content by 75%!

Tip N° 21: Keep some freshly cut vegetables in the fridge - eat them with a light dip as a snack.

Tip N° 22: On your days out, take a protein bar in your bag rather than buy chocolate from the deli.
