The absolute best place to look is at the food pyramid and the US or Canadian food guide.

Additionally,here are some things that work for me.

1. Eat three nutritious meals and three snacks everyday. Cut out junk food. You probably need about 1500 to 1800 calories a day.

2. Drink lots of water - at least 8 big glasses as day. Stop drinking soda.

3. Begin a simple weight lifting program at home. Ordinary household items (tins of soup, for example) can serve as weights for beginners.

4. Buy yourself a pedometer and aim for 10,000 steps a day.

5. Record everything you eat and all your exercise to make sure you have a "calorie deficit". Two of the sites I've included will help you do that.

6. Park at the back of the parking lot instead of close to the door. Always use stairs - never the elevator or escalator.

7. A mini stepper is an easy piece to equipment to have at home and gives great results. I bought mine at a second hand store for $4.

I hope these thoughts help. Good luck with it.

You can eat about anything in moderation. Exercise helps. Weight control helps. Genes also play a part.

Don't restrict yourself from all "fun" foods but limit the frequency and amount.

Good diet foods are salads with minimal dressing, raw and cooked veggies (as very good in salads), air popcorn in small amounts like 2 cups, water water and more water, limited soda especially non-diet as you can gain 15 pounds a year having one regular soda a day, and regulate the amount of breads, pasta and red meats.

Look up ADA (American Dietic Diet) on google for very good tips.

The new slow-churned or double-churned ice creams are much lower in fat and calories, but taste absolutely fantastic.
