Not sure if these work but they worked for me and hope they help others:
- cut meat out in most meals (try to have at least 4 days a week meat free. Why? Wasted calories imo)
- up your veg intake. Not only good for you but you fill you up on very low calories
- VERY IMPORTANT. cut bread, pasta, rice, spuds from your diet believe me, cut them out and you will not feel bloated straight away.
-drink lots of water. at least 8 glasses a day
- keep a diary. buy a notebook and faithfully write down all you eat and drink each day
- get addicted to green tea. you think you don't like it? try it. you will get addicted.
- if you have a lot of weight to lose make sure you eat foods that help you not end up with swathes of spare skin
- only weigh in once a week
- join a group. the support is great
I can add more later but hope those tips help x
