The Mind
Our three legs here are all S ? stress, self-esteem, support.
STRESS:
If you have a lot of stress in your life, look for ways to balance the stress with pleasure. Otherwise, you may find yourself eating glimmer wean away from opportune back stress scholarship.

SELF-ESTEEM:
Trying to lose weight can make a mess of your self-esteem ? you end up with too much focus on what?s wrong with you instead of what?s right. Every day, take a long look in the mirror and focus ONLY on one pleasing thing. Maybe you have thoughtful eyes, or strong shoulders, or cute ears. Pick one thing about your body that you like and just relish that one thing for a minute.
SUPPORT:
Don?t go it alone. Your partner or spouse may not be the best source of support. Find an online forum, learning resources, success stories and other resources on the web if you don?t like meetings or weigh-ins.
The Body
For the body, we?ve got three dials to adjust ? dial up metabolism and movement, dial down junk food.
METABOLISM:
You can boost your metabolism with safe supplements that increase baseline metabolism and with simple natural things like green tea. Just don?t overdo it. You?ll also get a significant boost in metabolism from adding more movement.
MOVEMENT:
Join a class at the gym, invite a neighbor to walk every morning, take the stairs instead of the elevator. Seriously, do anything you can to add movement to your day. I have a desk job so my routine could get pretty sedentary. But I start most days with a workout or a walk. Then I make it a point to get away from the computer and move frequently during the day. It all helps keep your body burning calories.
JUNK FOOD:
OK ? I love my salty snacks as much as anyone. But to lose weight, I?ve got to limit them. Not eliminate, just reduce. If I try to give them up entirely, some part of me rebels and eats a whole bag! So, I just put a small handful in a bowl instead of sitting down with a big serving dish or the whole bag.
If you keep these tips in mind, you just might put those extra pounds behind you for keeps!
