Four Dietary Steps for Weight Loss

Here are four simple steps that should help the dietary side of the equation for weight loss.

1. Reduce dietary fat (to under 40-60 gms per day, or 30 gms if you can), and ensure that the fat content in any one food is under 10%.

2. Increase dietary fibre to above 30 gms per day. Fibre will bulk up your food and give you a more fuller feeling, as well as reducing the absorption of energy from the food into your body.

3. Reduce portion size. Order the entree size meal at restaurants. If at home, fill your plate as per normal habit, then take 25%-50% off and store for lunch tomorrow.

4. Reduce sugars and alcohol intake.

Don't pick which one of the above tips to do, do them all!
