1. Keep a bowl of fresh fruit available. If it's there, you're more likely to eat it.
2. Eat breakfast. Spreading your food intake over the day is the best way to burn calories.
3. Plan ahead for routine meals and snacks. People who eat regular meals get a more balanced, healthier diet and are closer to their goal weights.
4. Pack your lunch the night before. If you don't eat breakfast or pack a lunch because you rush too much in the morning, set everything up the night before.
5. Buy a healthy cookbook or food magazine. If you like to cook, this can help inspire you to cook healthier foods and meals.
