Reverse Weight Gain

It doesn't take a genius to know that being overweight isn't good for you. Those seeking a magical cure in a pill, supplement or fad diet will be sorely disappointed.

If, however, you can achieve a feeling of fullness (satiety), then you can feel full longer and are less likely to overeat.

If you follow these steps, you may be on your way to a slimmer body:

1. Eat slowly to allow the brain time to signal a sense of fullness

2. Start your meal with broth, salad (without high calorie nuts, dried fruits or dressing) or fruit, preferably whole

3. Eat more protein and fewer carbohydrates.

4. Drink 2 cups of water 1/2 hour before meals.

Great things to know. I do drink lots of water and eat lots of protein. It works.
