I'd be curious to know what everyone's favorite
diet tips are.

I have two that I've picked up from these boards:
1. put the salad dressing on the bottom of the tupperware
bowl and the salad on top of it (don't know why I never thought
of that before.) Now I just shake it up before I eat it.

2. Drink a glass of Metimucial before dinner. I use
straight unflavored Psyllium Husks, which is rather
gross, but it works like a charm. Fills me up so I don't
overeat and my digestive system happy.

My favorite tip is to keep nuts in the car.

My favorite tip is to plan your day of eating. As you're eating breakfast, you can just jot down the rest of the day's menu ideas. Better yet, plan your week when you do your grocery shopping list. If I write everything down ahead of time, then when I get hungry at 3:00 I know exactly what to grab.

I don't always do this, but I always have more successful and less stressful weeks when I do.
