That's a really easy question to answer.

According to research, people who eat breakfast cereals like Special K, are less likely to be overweight that those who don't. When you don't have breakfast, you tend to feel hungry by mid-morning. This in turn can lead you to eat higher fat and calorie foods as your sugar levels fall. A healthy breakfast is rich in nutrients and low in fat, which helps you in more than one way. So make sure you never skip your breakfast, even if it means keeping a box of cereal at work!

Well, if you plan carefully, then it won't create a health problem. Remember, eating out is an event we share with family and friends and it should be enjoyable and relaxing!

While dining, choose a starter as a main course if the portions are generous but avoid fried, sauted and battered foods, as well as creamy sauces.

Most importantly, please don't overeat no matter how tasty the food is.
Remember these few tips and you'll be absolutely fine.

A balanced diet would consist of the right balance of carbohydrates, fats, protein, vitamins, and minerals- all in the right proportions with plenty of fluids. Having a balanced diet has a positive effect on the body not just physically, but mentally as well.

Ideally, each meal should be low in fat, high in fibre and be a combination of plenty of fruits and vegetables along with proteins and carbohydrates.

If the amount of energy you eat is the same as the amount you burn each day, you'll stay the same weight. The more active you are, the more able you are to eat a wider variety of foods and still control your weight. If you dislike organized sports, going to the gym or just feel like you don't have the time to exercise, simply change your daily routine to be more active. Walk to the next bus stop or station; take a brisk walk during your lunch break to revive your mind (and your body) or take the stairs instead of the escalator. Every bit of extra activity you get adds up to burn more energy (calories).

Don't get carried away by what your scales say because they only tell you part of the story. While scales can indicate how much weight you're actually losing, they can't give you any information about your frame size, body fat or muscle mass. One of the best indicators is to take an item of clothing that was too tight and see if it gets looser week by week.

Remember, if you exercise, you may be replacing some fat with muscle, which is heavier. So your scales may not suggest you're losing weight when in fact your clothes can tell the real story. The key to successful weight loss is to lose it slowly and steadily whilst making permanent changes to your lifestyle along the way. Losing weight too quickly means your body will burn off muscle rather than fat and that's definitely not a good idea.
