    Start Small

    1. Stock your kitchen. You can make room for the good things by getting rid of junk food. Keep healthy snacks on hand, along with staples for light meals.

    5 Daily Habits to Promote Weight Loss

    Diving head-first into a weight loss plan can be difficult to maintain long-term if you don't plan to create a lifestyle of healthy habits.

    Some people try to lose weight through intermittent fasting or simply swearing off junk foods. Others try to make major changes to their diet but quickly begin missing their favorite snack foods. Before they know it, they revert to their old habits and wind up gaining back the pounds they lost (and more).

    Take It Day by Day
