Watermelon has a lovely taste, chilled in the fridge 

it is irresistible

I love watermelon in the Summer, but also in winter it is a very nice way to start the day, or to finish your meal. I make watermelon juice, and I cut it into little cubes, as a little nibble when I am hungry in between meals. My kids also love it, and it is healthy and low calory; yet in the meantime with plenty vitamins and minerals.

The Most Important Thing

Make a picture of how you look like when you have your ideal weight.
Stick it on your mirror, and use it as a way to stay motivated.
You CAN do it, and you know that!

Surviving the hungry spells - Horses' logic 

I have my little hungry spells during the day. I really tried to only eat three meals per day, because I thought that way I would not store extra fat I don't need.

I had a horse; no, don't laugh! She was very thin, and I fed her nuts once a day. All the other horses would just eat grass and the natural herbs in the very big paddocks, and be fat, shiny and healthy, but she somehow needed some extra energy. After a while I found out that she would become fatter very fast when I divided the nuts into 6 meals per day.

So I - wrongly - concluded that we also work like that.

Luckuily my best friend Susanne is a dietist, and she explained to me that our bodies actually get triggered into a higher rate of metabolism when we eat more often. So now I started to use 5 little meals per day, and it seems she is right.

I also substitute 1 meal per day with a CLA-rich drink, and during the last week I have lost 2 kg. Without being hungry!

WATERMELON!

Calories in Watermelon 

1 melon (15" long x 7½ diameter / 4 kg) = 1355 calories

1 cup (154 g) 46 calories

Apart from three healthy meals per day... 

Now, when I want to lose weight, I make sure that I eat only three healthy meals per day, and that the little in-betweens are really very low in calories. Watermelon is an excellent choice for me, it is tasty, and it also provides liquid. It is important that our intake of liquids is high enough!

So I chuck in the watermelon in my little nibbles between meals, and I discovered that exercising really works.
