These 7 tips are the best of the best. I am sure if you apply them to your life you will lose all the fat you want.

1) Eat a variety of foods-
Variety is essential for optimal health. By eating a variety of foods your will ensure you get the energy, carbohydrates, fat, protein, vitamins, minerals, and fiber you need.

2) Keep your daily menu consistent-
By eating the same or very similar thing everyday for breakfast and lunch you are able to keep your calorie intake right where you need it. I recommend changing your breakfast and lunch menu weekly. Dinner is the place to vary your menu on a daily basis. Experiment with new healthy recipes.

3) Choose fresh, whole, organic foods whenever possible-
Choose whole foods in their natural state-for example, fresh, whole corn is way better than corn chips made from refined corn flour. Organic foods are grown without the use of harmful pesticides, herbicides and fungicides. All of these poisons were designed to kill living things, they are biocides. You are a living thing, why would you want them in your body?

4) Choose plenty of vegetables, and fruits-
These foods provide you with tons of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and complex carbohydrates, and can help you lower your overall calorie intake. Make it a goal to eat 6-10 servings of vegetables and 6-10 servings of fruit everyday. A serving of vegetables is 1 cup of raw leafy vegetables or 1/2 cup of other vegetables, cooked or chopped raw or 3/4 cup of vegetable juice. A serving of fruit is 1 medium apple, banana, orange or 1/2 cup of chopped, cooked, or canned fruit, or 3/4 cup of fruit juice.

5) Choose foods low in fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol-
Fat makes you fat and clogs your arteries. Make it a point to eat less than 15% of your calories from fat. Reducing your fat intake will reduce your risk of heart attack and certain types of cancer. It will also help you lose fat and maintain a healthy weight. Fatty foods usually contain a lot of calories.

Cholesterol is only found in animal products and saturated fats are found predominantly in animal products. Reducing your reliance on meat and dairy products origin is important for long-term health and weight loss.

6) Choose foods low in refined sugars-
Eating foods high in refined (table sugar) sugar can lead to hormonally induced binge eating and weight gain. When you eat foods high in sugar, you rapidly increase the amount of sugar in your blood stream. This in turn causes your pancreas to release the hormone insulin. One of insulin's jobs is to maintain blood sugar levels by taking sugar out of blood and putting it into your cells. The problem is, when you have a rapid rise in blood sugar, insulin causes a rapid decline in blood sugar. This leaves you feeling hungry and tired. And then guess what you do? Yep, you eat more high sugar food and the process starts all over. You end up eating way more calories than you intended and you end up gaining weight. Foods high in sugar also tend to be low in nutrients. Using the Glycemic Index as a guide is a great tool for eating low sugar foods.

7) Eat carbohydrates, protein and fat at every meal-
Doing so leads to greater feelings of satisfaction, which reduces cravings and the likelihood of eating more than you need and gaining weight you don't want. Try to eat at least 70% of your calories as carbohydrates and 15% as protien and fat.

Do you want to lose weight and increase your health and vitality without starving yourself? Then you must follow the Three Principles Of Eating For Weight Loss & Wellness. And, if you honestly want to increase your health and vitality as you drop the pounds and shed the fat without starving yourself, then you absolutely must eat foods in their whole, unprocessed state. Whole foods are just the things to get you to your weight loss and wellness goals fast.

For instance, a banana is going to be much more nutritious and filling, than a piece of banana bread (made with processed grains, sugar, and margarine). Or choosing vegetable soup is going to be much better for you (fewer calories and tons more nutrients) than a bowl of thick, fattening chowder. It comes down to choice, your's of course-on your path toward your amazing body and amazing life, are your going to choose:

The processed, sugar, fat and pesticide-laden industrial foods of the Standard American Diet (SAD), the foods that actually chip away at your life, make you fat and unhealthy?

Or...

The foods straight from Mother Nature, organic and bursting with fresh flavors, packed with vitamins, minerals and phyto-nutrients, foods which make you healthy, slim and energetic?

I hope you choose the latter, and I'd like to give you a little help in making those healthier choices. I want to make it easier. Plus, I'm going to show you how much more you get to eat when you make the better food choices!

Yes, I said you get to eat more! If you choose correctly, of course. Below are some extremely eye-opening food comparisons. I list the "typical, bad-for-you, you'll get fat and sick if you eat this" choice first, then the "wonderful for you, eat-a-bunch-of-this it makes you skinny and healthy" option.
