You know the MyPlate diagram
-- the one that shows how your plate should be split into fruits,
grains, vegetables and proteins? Your cart should look the same, Blatner
says. When you think you're finished shopping, do a quick eye check to
make sure it's filled with about 25% protein, 25% whole grains and 50%
produce.
"Choice is the enemy of
weight loss," Blatner says. She recommends planning out two healthy
breakfasts, two healthy lunches, two healthy snacks and two healthy
dinners for the week. Buy the ingredients you need for each and then
rotate them throughout the week.
This gives you enough
choice that you won't get bored but not enough choice that you're
overwhelmed and end up looking for the nearest vending machine.
Do not eat in response to that thing.
You're at the movies.
It's your cousin's bachelorette party. Your son is at the top of his
graduating class. It's a ball game -- and what's a ball game without a
hot dog? If you want to lose weight, avoid eating in response to "that
thing," Foster says.
Plan what you're going
to eat at these special -- or not so special -- occasions so you don't
have to rely on your willpower. And only eat when you're hungry. There
will be more food at the next thing.
Tell yourself: "I have the right to be thin."
Self-sabotage is a real
problem in weight loss, Connolly says. A lot of times his clients say
they want something and then go out of their way to make sure it doesn't
happen.
It's not a lack of desire or motivation. "Something holds us back," he says.
We have to learn to
validate ourselves, Connolly says, because we'll never get everything we
need from other people. Tell yourself daily that you deserve to be
healthy. You deserve to look and feel good. Then believe it.
Set S.M.A.R.T. goals.
If you haven't heard
this acronym before, memorize it now. Any goal you set should be
specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timely, says Eliza
Kingsford, psychotherapist and director of clinical services for
Wellspring. If it meets these qualities, you'll be much more likely to
achieve it.

For instance, "I'm going
to be more active" is a goal. "I will walk for 30 minutes every day for
the next month" is a S.M.A.R.T. goal.
It's specific in that you know how much activity you're going to do. It's measurable -- did you walk today or not?
It's attainable and
realistic; everyone can find 30 minutes in their day, and walking
doesn't require a lot of equipment or special training. And it's timely
because you'll be able to see at the end of the month if you hit your
goal.
Stand up.
Most of us now spend
eight hours a day sitting at our desks at work, and two to three hours
sitting at home. That kind of sedentary lifestyle is nearly impossible
to counteract, Dr. Holly Lofton of New York says, even if you hit the
gym for two hours a day (and who does that?).
She suggests wearing a
step counter that will keep you aware of the movement -- or lack of
movement -- you're making throughout the day. Try standing up at your
desk while on a conference call, or walking to a colleague's desk
instead of e-mailing him. Take the stairs. Park farther away. Everything
counts!
Life will never be stress-free. Learn to cope.
Scientists disagree
about whether stress itself produces a physical change in your body that
can lead to significant weight gain. But we all know the effect a
stressful day can have on our willpower.
The problem, Kushner
says, is that there never will be a long period in your life without
stress. And if we cope with everyday stress by indulging in brownies and
vodka, the weight will continue to pile on.
"Life happens. It's not so much stress that causes weight gain, it's the coping, the push back," he says.
The key is to learn
positive coping skills. If work is stressing you out, take a 10-minute
walk instead of hitting up the cookie tray in the breakroom. Take a yoga
class at the end of a long week. Use deep breaths to get through a
phone call with your mother.
