When people are trying to lose weight they often try to change their way of eating. When they go to a restaurant, they will choose smaller plates so they eat less, and they will look for things on the menu that contain less fat, salt and sugar.
Many people think they will lose weight if they eat nothing but salads. The problems with this diet is that you will feel like you are missing out on your favorite foods, and many salad dressings contain a lot of fat so you may not lose much weight anyway.
The important thing to remember is: energy out. You can eat anything you want to eat, within reason, if you remember that you need to use up all of the energy that you got from the food. Give yourself time to walk more instead of taking a bus or train. Play a sport in your time off. Enjoy your life.
