Nutrition Tips 101

• Eating too few calories slows metabolism and makes it harder to lose weight.
• An increase of 3,500 calories over your body's energy theoretically leads to a
  one pound weight gain.
• Eat 4-5 smaller balanced meals throughout the day to keep your metabolism
  on an even burn.
• Weight loss should occur at a rate of 1-2 pounds per week and should be
  accompanied by an exercise program.
• Drink water to remain hydrated throughout the day.
• Reduce calorie intake with small changes - low fat substitutions over richer items.
• Use skim milk to save 90 calories per cup over whole milk.
• Maintain portion control. Avoid overeating.
• Don't skip breakfast - it boosts metabolism and prevents hunger and
  overeating at lunch.
• When making food choices, decide wisely. What you eat may just stay with
  you as stored FAT for a long time.
