These great tips come from Turbo Jam and ChaLEAN Extreme Fitness Trainer, Chalene Johnson. Print them out and put them on your fridge as a great reminder to stay on track.

1. Vigorous exercise won’t stimulate your to overeat. It’s just the opposite. Exercise at any level helps curb your appetite immediately following a workout and will likely cause you to actually crave healthy foods.
2. Distract yourself when you have a very strong craving. Cravings usually disappear after 2 minutes. Don’t sit in front of the fridge negotiating with yourself. Instead, walk away and focus your attention elsewhere. And if you have a few food items which are simply too much to resist, toss them!
3. As hard as it may seem to lose weight, it’s more stressful, depressing, frustrating, embarrassing, and even life-threatening to remain overweight.
4. The large majority of people who struggle with late-night eating are those who skip meals or don’t eat balanced meals during the day. Try to be consistent.
5. Change your nighttime schedule. Make it your goal to go to sleep with an empty stomach. You’ll wake up feeling thin and well rested.
6. Put a sign on the kitchen and refrigerator doors: “Closed after dinner. Water is open all night.”
7. Brush your teeth right after dinner to get the taste of food out of your mouth and to make the statement” “I’m done eating!”
8. Eat without engaging in any other simultaneous activity like reading, TV, or sitting at the computer. Savor the food and you’ll be more conscious of portions.
9. Move more and move quicker. A slow metabolism is rarely the culprit for the inability to lose weight. Rather, fit people tend to move more and move quickly. Use the stairs instead of the elevator. Climb two steps at a time as a great way to tone the glutes.
10. When shopping for food, try markets that specialize in whole foods. They are less likely to stock tempting, unhealthy junk food. If you have to go to the regular grocery store, shop around the outside isles. This is where the fresh foods are.
