If your thighs, legs, and tummy are a bit overweight and if you’re looking for a way to reduce them, take a look at these quick weight loss diet tid-bits:

1. Eat More Frequently – You’re probably thinking, “What?” Yes, eat more frequently so your body never feels hungry. Being hungry usually results in binge eating and that’s a no-no.

Many experts now believe that it’s best to eat six times per day. For example, a small breakfast at 7:00AM, a snack at 10:00AM, a light lunch at 12:00PM, a snack at 3:00PM, dinner at 6:00PM, and one last snack at 8:00PM.

Don’t let your tummy get hungry.

2. Eat Smaller Portions on Smaller Plates – Reducing the size of the plate that your eating out of will remind you to eat smaller portions. Eat one plate of food – no more!

3. 2 Glasses of Cold Water Before You Eat – The water will of course take up room in your tummy so that you’ll eat less. And, the fact that the water was cold will encourage your body to burn more calories to warm that water up to your normal body temperature. This is a key in any quick weight loss diet.

4. Chew Slowly – Slow down how fast you’re eating and you’ll eat less food. It takes your stomach about 10 minutes to tell your brain that it’s no longer hungry. So, slowly chew your food.

5. Cook With Non-Stick Pans – Save at least 100 calories every time you cook with a non-stick pan. Adding butter, margarine, or oil to a pan so that the food won’t stick to it is a quick weight loss diet nightmare.

6. Eat Oily Fish – Such as salmon, herrings, mackerel, and sardines. These fish have fatty acids that’ll help your body burn fat more efficiently.

7. Don’t Deny Yourself Sweets – If you like sweets, don’t deny yourself sweets – once again, denying yourself may lead to a binge. Instead, occasionally treat yourself to a low-cal alternative. For example, I like Starbuck’s Java Fudge Frappuccino Blended Coffee Bars which have about 130 calories each.

8. Allergy Check – Believe it or not, many doctors now believe that allergies are a cause for many people to be overweight.

“There are specific food allergies that trigger uncontrollable craving and bingeing”, says Joseph D. Beasley, M.D., director of Comprehensive Medical Care in Amityville, New York. “It’s a common problem in over-eaters.”

So, if you’re eating certain foods that you just don’t believe that you could live without them, ask your family doctor to do an allergy check. If this is your problem, you won’t need a quick weight loss diet.
