So What Does Work?
The bottom line with weight loss is that you have to eat fewer calories than you burn -- regardless of whether the calories come from carbs, protein, or fat. Still, the weight-loss approach that works for someone else may not work for you because losing weight is very individualized. It is up to you to find the right fit.
Regardless of the type of weight-loss program you choose, there are some fundamental keys to success. There are numerous weight-loss plans that are effective because they are built on these fundamentals for permanent weight management:
Strategies for Success
- Make small changes in your life that work for you. Can you drink 1% or 2% milk instead of whole, and then when you're accustomed to that, eventually switch to skim? How about trying lighter or low-fat versions of your favorite
mayonnaise, salad dressings, cheeses, snacks, etc.?
- Eat with a sense of purpose: Savor the flavors and engage your senses so that you truly acknowledge that you are eating. Forget the mindless munching that happens while you cook, drive, or watch television.
- Control your portions. Successful dieters don't supersize their meals.
- Eat a diet consisting of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and low-fat protein sources, and limit the total amount of fat,
alcohol, and treats.
- Start your day with a healthy breakfast that includes some protein, in the form of low-fat milk, yogurt, lean meats, or an egg. Many overweight people skip breakfast. Start living life like a thin person, and make breakfast a
healthy habit.
- Find physical activities that you enjoy or sneak exercise into your daily routine by walking to work, taking the stairs, or parking in the outer reaches of the parking lot. Whichever you choose, do it daily, for the cardiovascular, stress reduction and calorie-burning benefits.

What causes weight gain after quitting?
When smokers quit, they may gain weight for a number of reasons. These include:

- Having more snacks and alcoholic drinks. Some people eat more high-fat, high-sugar snacks and drink more
alcoholic beverages after they quit smoking.
- Burning calories at a normal rate again. Every cigarette you smoke makes your body burn calories faster, but is also harmful to your heart. Once you quit, you are no longer getting this temporary effect. Inst...
