      Write down your ideal weight goal and a list of how you plan to go about achieving it. Keep a daily journal of the foods and drinks you consume along with the number of calories you are taking in with each meal you have. This will help to find problem areas in your diet or when trying to cut back on foods high in fat or calories.

      Remove sugars and high fat foods from your diet immediately. Although ridding excess sugars from your diet may seem challenging, cutting ice creams, candy and soda out of your daily diet will contribute to a healthier body and smaller size.

      Eat fresh food; avoid processed and fast food. Prepare your own meals using as many organic and fresh ingredients as possible. Stick with incorporating fresh salads, meats, fruits and vegetables into your meals and snacks. For fiber, add beans, nuts, oatmeal and bran cereal into your daily diet. To keep your diet high in protein, eat eggs, fish and chicken along with dairy products such as yogurt, milk and cheese.

      Eat more frequently throughout the day, upping your meals to five or six small meals each day rather than one to three large meals that make you feel "stuffed" or too full. This will keep your energy high and you from overeating on snacks or unhealthy food.
