  • annefood Great tip !
  • SuzanneM 100% agree with this tip. I know there is a lot of info out there about fat making a comeback. But it's not about any fat. We need to be eating healthy fat!
  • darkchocolatepeanutbutter Love the tip @evasu! I just to clarify that a vegetable oil like coconut oil can also be saturated but it is still a great alternative.
Don't get more than you can eat and try eating slower since this balances out your digestive system allows you to become more full quickly.

Drink a glass of water before your food, it will make you feel more full and make you want to eat less!

  • KyFish I do this as well. But I use this 7 grain bread from my farmers market because it doesn't have any added sugar like some grocery store bread, and it's better for managing my diabetes.
I've always struggled with food.

Add lemon juice to your water
7yr
By adding lemon juice to your water it gives it taste, helps detox your body and helps increase your metabolism
  • Amieroe that's smart although be careful because to much acid is bad for your teeth :)
  • BethIsGreen I keep one of those lemon juice squeeze bottles in my fridge so it's easier.
A good way to stop drinking soda is to find a healthier alternative like carbonated water. For extra flavor add some lemon or lime slices.
