If you want to go for healthy Diet Tips, first you have know these dieting myths:

1. If I drastically cut calories, I'll lose weight faster.

When you take your caloric intake down too low, you are actually sending your body into "starvation mode". Your body wants to maintain your weight when it "thinks" you are starving; therefore, your metabolism will actually slow down and you may not lose weight.
2. The stricter the diet, the better it will work.

The stricter a diet is -- completely eliminating entire food groups; eating just one food (e.g. cabbage soup) -- the less effective it will be in the end. You'll get tired of the allowed food and when you feel really deprived, you're likely to call it quits altogether.
3. I should get rid of my favorite less-than-healthful foods.

By treating yourself to your old favorites now and again, you'll stay motivated and you'll be less likely to give in to a binge. Just make sure you get back on track after your treat. Moderation is the key to successful, long-term weight loss.
4. Eating late at night will cause me to gain weight.

All things considered, it doesn't really matter when you eat, only how many calories you eat and burn in a day. Whether you're eating in the morning or at midnight your body turns any extra calories into fat. In fact, eating a light snack -- like cheese and crackers -- before bed may help you sleep better.
5. I shouldn't eat between meals.

On the contrary, eating a small, healthful snack between meals will help keep your blood sugar at an even keel and keep your metabolism going strong. You'll also avoid getting too hungry so you don't over-eat at your next meal.
6. Fat is bad.

Everybody needs to include some fat in their diet. We need it; plus, it makes dishes more satisfying and palatable. Some fats are even good for you, like omega-3 fatty acids, which are found predominantly in fish and shellfish.

I hope you don't mind the intrusion, I just felt compelled to share my knowledge in the area. I have written several articles on proper nutrition, especially nutrition which primes the body for healthy hair.
 
Again, I don't mean the post links for no reason, I simply have a lot to share in this area, and didn't think it would be proper to start pasting entire articles to the thread lol.

Diet and exercise, it's easy to say but very tough to do. Great tips. I'll definitely share this with my family and friends. Another tip from me is to think about what you can add to your diet, not what you should take away and I may start by focusing on getting the recommended 5-9 servings of fruits and vegetables each day. Wink $- P cn`dp0% 00BB .<,bb $> - -, (%-)! ` !(

One end of the most effective diet is to drink plenty of water. In fact, water is possibly the most important catalyst in losing weight and keeping off.You should eat five or six small meals a day at regular intervals of about 4-5 hours. This will help suppress appetite and increase your metabolism rate. If you are on a regimen of cardiovascular exercise can also increase fruit intake by drinking more smoothies after a workout.

Many studies and researches are suggested that diet is a mirror of good health. Try to eat less calorie and sugary foods. Do a regularly habit for walking after eating lunch or dinner.

Fresh fruits are always preferable to frozen, dried or canned fruits, because they are richer in nutrient. You will still feel extremely full by eating a bowl of fresh berries and non-fat yogurt but without the unnecessary calories.

For the diabetic patient or for a fat person diet is most important to lose weight. In dieting plan rather than a fancy meal the person should have to cut diet meal in a small part. Do not go to bed after eating the food. $- P cn`dp0% 00BB .(4`p /.%%%,)) !$$% )$b" /.

I would add some exercise to the days when you don't play soccer-walking with family or friends, taking up a new sport, lifting weights--anything to get moving on those days. The more active you are, the better shape you'll be in.

That is true. Most people overdo things or do certain things without doing proper research. Weight is simple, burn more calories than you take. That's it. Eat better, work more.

Chech this new type of Dieting

Water fasting can help individuals burn fat. Fasting starts when carbohydrates stored in the body are utilized for energy. T


water fasting for 24 hours increases the metabolism of fat among women by 1,300 percent and among men by 2,000 percentIf followed step by step
Step 1
Fast no longer than 24 hours. Fasting more than 24 hours continues to increase the amount of muscle metabolized. Muscle burns more calories per pound than fat. After you break the fast, you will need muscle to keep your metabolism from slowing down.
Step 2
Engage in light- to moderate-intensity aerobic exercise. Do not overexert yourself, and do take sporadic breaks. Calories burned during aerobic exercise while fasting will primarily consist of calories burned from fat.
Step 3
Hydrate your body frequently. Drink eight or more 8 oz. glasses of water. Try drinking ice-cold water. Ice water causes the body to burn more calories, since the body needs to expend energy to generate heat after consuming the cold water.
Step 4
Get plenty of rest. Reducing sleep can decrease fat-burning up to 55 percent, according to a 2010 study published in "Annals of Internal Medicine." Additionally, lack of sleep increases your appetite, and may lead to binge-eating or yo-yo dieting.
Step 5
Engage in deep-breathing exercises. Breathe in through the nose for five seconds and release air through the mouth. Do at least five sets of 30 repetitions per day. Oxygen is required for the body to burn fat. Increasing the availability of oxygen may enhance this process.
Step 6
Break your fast gradually. Your ghrelin levels, a hormone that increases your appetite, will be heightened after fasting. These increased levels may cause you to want to eat large quantities of food. Try to eat small amounts of fruits, vegetables or rice initially. If you binge after a fast, most calories consumed will be stored as fat, which counters your efforts to burn fat while fasting.

There are no links in your post - no tips and no info.

On a side note, I have done some research and found that your body adjusts every 17 days to whatever exercise you have been doing or how you have cut calories.

These adjustments are in your metabolism as well, so if you have cut calories like the first post says, your metabolism will slow down. Don't forget though that you need to expend more energy than you put in and eating like a pig and exercising like a sloth is not going to help.

Every 17 days, change your diet or if your diet has been working well, take a break from it for a week, take a break from your exercise routine as well.

 Also, to make sure your matabolism does not slow down too much, you need to binge. Ok, not binge because that just gets out of control, but honestly, EAT. Show your body there is PLENTY of food around and that you have access to it/

Ok, so there are 2 of my tips :)

I have some more here if you are interested in taking a look:
