Begin exercising as soon as you wake up. Do something to get your heart rate up for 30 minutes. Exercises can include jogging, working out on a cardio machine or working out to your favorite exercise video. This will help burn fat that your body is beginning to store from the night before and also help kick start your metabolism.

Eat a healthy breakfast. Waiting until mid-morning or lunch to eat will slow your metabolism. A healthy breakfast can include a cup of whole grain cereal, 1/2 cup of skim milk and a piece of fruit.

Drink six to eight 8-oz. glasses of water throughout the day. Water helps your liver function properly and also helps burn fat. It will also prevent dehydration when you exercise. In addition, drinking lots of water will keep you feeling fuller longer. Many times when people feel hungry, they actually need water.

Eat more meals, with smaller portions, throughout the day. By eating smaller meals four or five times a day, you will avoid food cravings and possible binges because you will not feel hungry all of the time. This method also keeps your metabolism going throughout the day, which will help burn up fat.

Exercise in the evening. You do not need a strenuous workout routine to do this. A simple evening walk can help burn fat and calories. This is beneficial because toward the end of the day, your body's metabolism begins to slow. Some light exercise after dinner can help keep it going to continue to burn fat into the evening.
