3. Carbonated water instead of soda
If you are addicted to sodas, then stopping drinking them will be a very challenging task. Nevertheless, you can try and reduce the amount of soda you consume daily by replacing at least one can of soda with a bottle of carbonated water. This is how you can easily reduce the amount of calories you consume by 150. If plain water tastes boring, try and add a bit of fruit or some sweetener. And do not try to cheat and compensate for your soda elsewhere!
4. Plenty of protein in each meal
Eat lean protein throughout the day. Your snacks should also have some protein. Instead of salty potato chips grabs a pack of seeds or nuts. Prepare lean poultry and eat dairy as well as soy. Protein is digested by the body very slowly which allows you to go without food for many hours. You feel no hunger pangs and stay indifferent to starchy, fatty and sugary foods.
