By Haiyan Lai-Heskin

If you want to lose weight fast naturally, you better pay attention to what you eat. Say goodbye to 10 pounds of unwanted fat isn't as difficult as you thought as long as you eat fresh and healthy food including snacks, fill up on vegetables and keep your taste buds happy with fruit.

The 7 tips list below is a balanced and flexible plan that you can use for as long as you want. And it will help you to lose your first 10 pounds, last 10 pounds or give your weight loss program a boost when it seems to have stuttered to a halt if you follow this guidelines.

1. First, consider to make a weight loss food diary, just listing your daily menu. This will help you actually see what you eat on any given day.

You do not need to estimate calories. Just write down what it was that you had and the approximate quantity. You will find that being more aware of what you are eating helps you to plan healthy meals and snacks.

2. To lose weight fast and naturally, lowing your fat intake is very important. Consume eggs, nuts and red meat occasionally but not every day. And try to eat the lower fat source of protein at most meals: chicken, fish, beans, cottage cheese, or low fat yogurt.

3. Use whole grains wherever possible. The fiber will give you a fuller feeling and also help your digestion. And plan at least one lunch and dinner every week without meat or cheese. Make a shopping list of what you need and stick to it. If you just grab something when you are feeling hungry, you will probably choose high calorie food.

4. Limit treats containing sugar to three times per week. This includes chocolate, ice cream, desserts, cake, pastries, cookies, etc. Grated carrot makes a great snack. You will find that a grated carrot is much more filling than a whole carrot. Strange but true.

5. Stock up some seasonal fresh fruits and vegetables, whether you use these as side dishes to your meals or as snacks to keep you satisfied throughout the day. You should include at least two servings of vegetables at lunch and dinner and two servings of fruit every day include in your diet plan.

6. Drink water instead of sodas, juices, milky drinks or alcohol. Avoid diet soda - the sweet taste only encourages you to crave sugar. Hot water with a slice of lemon can be very refreshing in the morning.

7. Eat more chewy food. This means eating fruit instead of drinking juice. If you have soup, make sure it is chunky. Again this will increase your fiber intake, and the act of chewing will make you feel more satisfied too.

Be slow and concentrated while eating, because your is slow to register when you are full and it is easy to eat too much if you are racing through your meals. Studies have proved that we eat larger portions in front of the TV, probably because we are much less aware of what we are eating. Remember to switch off the TV when you eat.
