1. Salad for Every Meal

This tip comes from Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, and her weight loss transformation is enough to convince you it works. She credits this simple trick to her postpartum weight loss. And when you think about it, it does make a lot of sense that increasing your intake of fresh vegetables and laying off the carbs will help shed the pounds.

“Salad is always on the menu with whatever dish I am making,” she told People.

2. Note Down Everything You Eat

Food journaling is one of the most effective ways of being aware of what you eat, which will help you control the amount of food you eat and how healthy your diet it. Carrie Underwood is one celebrity who has made use of this trick and found results as well.

“[It] helps me make better choices and pay attention to what I’m eating,” she says.

3. Get Two Appetizers, Skip Main & Dessert

When eating out, order yourself two appetizers and stay clear of main and dessert, which is where you’re most likely to get carb and meat-heavy options. If you’re feeling really hungry or have a raging sweet tooth, you can also opt for a main and shared dessert.

This tip comes from Jennifer Lawrence’s former trainer Dalton Wong, who is the one who helped her tone down for body-baring roles like Mystique in X-Men: First Class. The actress also penned the foreword for his book “The Feelgood Plan: Happier, Healthier & Slimmer in 15 Minutes a Day” in which she thanked him for teaching her life-changing weight-control lessons.
