Easy Ways to Lose Weight

3Learn the Habits of Successful Losers
The National Weight Control Registry has collected data on people who've lost a significant amount of weight and kept it off. Here are some of their secrets:
  • 78% eat breakfast every day This doesn't mean grabbing a donut on the way to work. The successful dieters ate a healthy meal like an egg white omelet and whole wheat toast.
  • 62% watch less than 10 hours of TV per week
  • 90 % exercise about one hour per day
  • 75% weigh themselves at least once a week
  • If a bad weigh-in sends you to the cookie jar for comfort instead of to the gym for revenge, skip the scale and keep an eye on how your clothes fit.
