Keeping an eye on ones weight gets harder and harder. I don’t know about you, but the food seems to be getting better. I will try to give you some tips that worked for me in keeping the weight down. Now keep in mind, this is my opinion, and what works for me might not work for you.

Probably one of my biggest challenges is going out to eat. It just seems so tough to maintain a healthy lifestyle while you are craving a juicy hamburger. It’s unfortunate they haven’t figured out a way to make those things “fat free”, but until they do, I guess we all suffer.

Now mind you, I really haven’t stopped eating all those tasty dishes, but I have done something else. I noticed a little trick that some health conscious individuals do. They actually leave food on their plates! I can hear what you’re saying, but listen when I tell you that portion control is a big thing.

Friends of mine told me that the Europeans are well known for this, as their restaurants serve great food, but just in smaller portions. In my opinion I truly believe that is a great idea, especially for us who are way overweight. So I really don’t have to become a vegetarian after all.

I know that sounds easier said then done, especially when the food is the best gourmet. But the more I read those healthy living tips books, the more I begin to realize that they are right. It really isn’t as important as what you are eating, but the amounts that you are eating.

So a comparison would have to be made in exactly what you are eating. If I am having a really fatty dish, like those one half pound hamburgers I enjoy, then I would cut it in half. I still might be up there in fat intake, but it is a start for someone as overweight as myself.

So hopefully these healthy living tips will help make a difference for me. If I could eat what I enjoy in moderation, I just might see some beneficial results. Now this is just my opinion, am I am not recommending this for you. As always you should check with a doctor and get a complete medical checkup before making changes in your current lifestyles.
