  2. Eat frequently - Plan on eating a little every three hours or so and you will have more energy and feel fuller
  3. Eat protein not carbohydrates. The body needs to burn more calories to digest protein such as lean meat, dairy products and skinless chicken.
  4. Eat food for health - choose to eat foods that will benefit your own personal health
  5. Exercise, yes that word keeps cropping up but its important to have some get up and go to boost your muscle mass and provides a feel good factor afterwards.
  6. Sleep - If you sleep less than eight hours a night, studies show that you are likely to put on more weight, you may be too tired to exercise and turn to high calorie snacks to boost your energy, but they actually have the reverse effect.
