Here are some basic ways to jump start your weigh loss goals. 

• Clean out your fridge. Take all the junk food and high fat foods out and throw them away. Replace whole fat things like mayo with lower calorie options. 
• Start buying everything in the “fat free” option. This may not taste as good at first but you will get use to it and it will make a big difference. 
• Fruit is your friend. Fruit is a great snack.
• Park further away. The extra walking from the end of the parking lot to the mall will add up and make a difference. 
• Skip the Elevator. Walking up and down the stairs can make a big difference in your weight. 
• Eat because you need food not because of emotions. 
• Avoid solid fats. Solid fats are the worst for your bodies, they get stuck in your arteries and make you look plump.
• Get up and work out. Try to walk or run for an hour a day. Talk on the phone, watch tv, or walk with a friend and the time will fly by. 
• Avoid soda. Soda has about 110 calories. This can really add up, water is calorie free.
