Wonderful ways to Change your Diet to Lose Weight Naturally

There are thousands of dieting books available on the market today. Many of these books have the same message that recycle the same information over and over again each time with a slight twist. But losing weight naturally is not as complicated as some experts make it out to be.

You don’t have to eliminate food groups, or starve yourself. You don’t have to eat only fruits and vegetables, or eat cabbage soup all day. You change your diet by adapting to one or two healthy habits at a time and before you know it the weight will slide off all on its own. Here are a few healthy habits that you should master to be on the path to natural weight loss:

1. Eat 3 pieces of fruit and 3 cups of vegetables each day (cooked or raw)
2. Drink ½ your body weight in ounces of fresh water each day
3. Eat only lean protein that is baked, broiled, grilled and skinless (bar soap sized/serving)
4. Eliminate all sugary drinks like soda, milkshakes and juices from concentrate
5. Eat only complex carbohydrates like 100% whole grain breads and cereal, whole wheat pasta and brown rice
6. Take a multivitamin each day
7. Eat moderate amounts of unsaturated fat like almonds, walnuts, avocados, and olive oil each day
8. Only eat ½ of what you’re served at any restaurant
9. Don't go back for a second helping of food when you eat
