Sat__'s 13-point program for weight loss

1. Do not go on a diet. Diets always fail.

2. Discover the foods that make you want to eat more and stop eating them.

(a) Foods with added sugar will make you hungry. Avoid them.
(b) White bread, white potatoes should be avoided. Eat carrots, yams, and sweet potatoes instead.
(c) Complete the rest of this list by discovering what makes you want to eat and eat.

3. When you eat, chew your foods until the solids are liquids before you swallow them. If you are not used to doing this, it can take some forming of new eating habits, but this is easy.

4. Never eat after 6 p.m.

5. Pink grapefruits accelerate the weight loss process.

6. Walk briskly at least 30 minutes per day: the more uphill slopes, the better. Adding some light workout with weights will speed things up and make you feel good.

7. Never have food or drink with high fructose corn syrup in it. In fact, best avoid as many corn-based additives as you can.

8. If you want something sweet, have fruit. If you want to sweeten something, use stevia.

9. Don¹t worry about the amount of fat you eat but make most of the good fats, such as cold-pressed virgin olive oil, grape seed oil, cold-pressed canola oil.

10. Eat when you are hungry. If you are not hungry, don¹t eat.

11. Don¹t eat while watching TV.

12. Green tea helps burn off fat.

13. Find the rest of the rules that work for you.
