Step 7: GET MOVING - EXERCISE IS ESSENTIAL 要一直运动——练习是必要的
It's quite simple, if you burn more calories than you eat, you will lose weight.

The most important thing is to find exercise that you like and that you find reasonably easy to do, like walking for ten minutes a day, to start with.

You can build up what you do each week, taking it steadily. This way, you're much more likely to keep at it.

Yoga and water aerobics are two of the gentler forms of exercise. Most sports centres offer drop-in classes and you don't have to commit yourself till you've tried it.

Even if you find exercise tough at first, this will be one of the parts of your diet that will bring you a great sense of well-being.

Remember that ANY exercise you do is better than none. It will make you feel happier and more energetic because it releases endorphins, the body's natural highs.

Step 8: NEVER SKIP A MEAL – ESPECIALLY BREAKFAST 不要不吃饭，尤其是早餐
Set yourself up for the day by eating something that takes a long time to digest, like muesli, or eggs and wholemeal toast.

If you're one of those people who just doesn't fancy eating breakfast, make sure the first thing you do eat is along these lines, rather than a sugar-rich snack mid-morning.

This will keep your energy levels more constant, and won't leave you prey to sugar cravings later.

Step 9: TAKE TIME TO EAT. 控制吃饭的时间
You already know that one of the secrets of dieting lies in changing your relationship with food.

Sit down to eat and take the time to enjoy it. Remember, if you rush your food, you hardly notice that you've eaten, and you end up feeling hungry again long before it's really time to eat.

That's when you tend to want a fatty, sugary snack, just what you don't need.

Step 10: DRINK PLENTY OF WATER 多喝水
Why does drinking water help you to lose weight?

We often confuse thirst with hunger. Sometimes you may reach for food when what you really need is a long drink of water. Try it.

When we don't drink enough water, we retain fluid. Paradoxically, the more water we drink, the less fluid we retain; when we don't drink enough water, the body holds on to fluid, causing bloating.

So aim for six to eight large glasses of water a day.

Step 11: EAT FIVE PORTIONS OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES PER DAY 每天吃5份水果和蔬菜
Fruit and vegetables are what you need to eat to get all your vitamins and minerals. They also contain lots of water, and fill you without fattening you.

They are the stars of the slimmer's diet. Five portions a day is the minimum suggested.

Step 12: EXERCISE PORTION CONTROL 控制练习
Slimmer people tend to eat smaller portions.

A sensible sized portion would be about the size of the palm of your hand, not including your fingers.

Experts recommend a good balance of protein and carbo-hydrate, with a little fat.

Step 13: YOU CAN EAT SNACKS ON A DIET 节食时可以适当吃些零食
The key to losing weight is to keep your energy levels constant and you can only do that if you eat regularly.

Mid-morning and mid-afternoon are the times we experience a drop in energy levels. That's when we need a healthy snack.

Good examples of healthy snacks are:

Some fruit and a few nuts

Raw vegetables and a tasty dip

Rice cakes or oat cakes with low fat cheese or humus

The key here is to keep it a snack-sized snack.
