1. Never go hungry . Do not expect to feel faint (o) and “dead (o)” hunger. That’s the easiest way to eat everything without control and ruin everything you’ve achieved so far. This is because hunger is a primal urge that is hard to deny (and controlling). As better safe than sorry, always keep handy (even in your wallet or car) healthy snacks, such as almonds (12 almonds is a serving), a boiled egg, some whole grain crackers, or packets of raisins. Ah! And you never skip meals.
2. Drink lots of water! Did you know that some people confuse thirst with hunger? So when you think you’re hungry, drink a glass of water first. Maybe that will help keep you satisfied until your next meal. If you can not wait, however the water you drink will help you eat less and feel full faster. That is why many nutritionists recommend drinking a glass of water at least 20 minutes before each meal.
3. Eat more meals in the day. Eating more often helps to speed up metabolism and also allows people to feel constantly satisfied (full). It is best to divide the total daily calories into smaller meals or snacks and enjoying most of them earlier in the day. Remember, dinner should be the smallest of all your meals.

5. Write down what you eat. Some even carry a “food diary”, but can be a notebook or if you have smartphone, the spot can take that record. The important thing is that you take control of your diet. That helps you remember how many calories you have consumed during the day, or week, and will help you not deviate.
6. junk food, fast food restaurants and frozen (easy to prepare) food. All these are a magnet for lost weight because they are high-calorie, fat, sodium and carbohydrates. That does not mean you have to be complicated or in preparation or tasteless. Plan ahead.
7. Load up on what suits you . Fill your fridge (refrigerator) and fresh fruits and cupboard (or frozen) vegetables, and lean poultry, fish, whole grains and healthy snacks, like Greek yogurt, nuts or bread. And get your kitchen and your view biscuits, sweets and candies and all foods that you know well that you do not favor.
8. Add some color to foods with fruits and vegetables . Something that will help you not get those lost pounds, is the rule of the colors, mix red, green and orange (orange).

11. Move a little more! Sitting (a) on the couch do not burn many calories. If you really do not want to get fat again you have to increase your physical activity! And if you’re already practicing some exercise give it a little so you do not get bored. If you can not go to a gym, alternating walking with dancing, skating, swimming or cycling. The key is to be in constant motion!
