Here is the 94th in our series of 100 Weight Loss Tips articles. Each new article brings you a brand new top tip on how to successfully lose weight. So the last tip was all about the importance of including dietary fiber in your daily diet and this one looks at the actual volume of food that you are inclined to eat.

Let’s face it, we were conditioned to eat as kids and most of us were made to sit there until we’d cleaned the plate, or we were threatened that if we didn’t eat up all our meat and vegetables we wouldn’t get any pudding! One of these little gems that I was conditioned with was “eat it while its hot” which translated into shovel that food down your throat before it gets cold! Well, eating that way is not a good way to eat, despite what you were told!

Here is the 98th in our new series of 100 Weight Loss Tips posts that are designed to give you a brand new top tip on how to lose weight. As with the last post that looked at the evils of sugar, this one carries that on it the form of the other nemesis of slimmers and dieters everywhere, SUGAR SUBSTITUTES!

Sugar substitutes, or artificial sweeteners as they are also known as, are every bit as evil as sugar (especially non-milk extrinsic sugars MNE’s) itself. If that sounds like a blow to the whole weight loss belief system, then I’m afraid you can consider yourself beaten and bruised! You have almost definitely been of the belief that by eating and drinking foods and liquids that are sweetened by artificial sweeteners, then you are safe from the ravages of that terrible weight gaining refined sugar that all the weight loss diets warn you about – and with very good reason. But the truth of the matter is quite different from what you have been led to believe.
