A true fast is eating nothing at all, and drinking nothing but water, or, you know, the amazing wonder of Diet Coke and other such drinks.
Everytime you eat, your body stores it because it doesn't know when it will get it's next meal- it's next energy source. It takes twelve hours of fasting before your body will begin to actually begin eating off it's fat.
If you eat something with no calories, like mustard, or something that is a supposed negative calorie, like a celery stick, you are still ruining your fast! If you put any foods into your body, calorieless or not, your system will think it is going to be fed and will wait another twelve hours before it begins eating off it's fat again!
Make a list of all the foods that you crave. Each day, pick one to take out of your diet. No matter what, you absolutely cannot eat again. Take one off until there are no bad foods.
Eat in front of a mirror naked except for tight underwear. Do you want him to see that?Competition is the best motivation for some people. Find a buddy on here to lose weight with. If you're ahead of them, it's a blissful feeling that dwarfs the sick pleasure of eating. If you're behind, looking at them makes you realize that food is unnecessary. There is nothing stopping you except you.
Curl up in a ball if you have hunger pains. Look at those rolls! You aren't nearly hungry enough to willingly add on to those!
The smell of coffee suppresses appetite.
Wear perfectly applied lip-gloss. You'll eat slowly and cautiously to avoid messing it up, which will draw your attention to the fact that you're stuffing your face.
Don't carry extra money, you'll be tempted to spend it on food.
Avoid alcohol, tons of calories. Luckily, alcohol is intolerable if you're chewing peppermint gum. Don't give in to your cravings. You're stronger than that; look at those around you, getting fatter by the second. Be glad that isn't you.
Drink a glass of ice cold water as often as possible, every half-hour is ideal. The water fills and cleanses you; the cold burns calories. At least two quarts daily is good. Water is necessary to carry away the breakdown byproducts of fat.
Wear your favorite tight bikini bottom and take a picture of your love handles. Look at it when you want to eat.
Before you eat, count to 100-slow n steady. Usually that's all it takes to realize you don't want it.
If hungry, follow the 4Ds: Distance yourself from the food; Delay eating; Distract yourself; Decide what your goals really are.
Think of something disgusting and put the food you crave beside it mentally. Recall a mortifying event and tell yourself that it was caused by the food. Soon you will automatically associate the two.
Tips to Control Eating
Never eat more than a cup. Your stomach will expand and you'll eat more later.
It takes twelve hours for the body to start feeding off its own fat.
Write down everything you eat. Sometimes you'll disgust yourself by saying it.
Look at what you're about to eat. Imagine a bulge in your stomach shaped like that cheeseburger or muffin or whatever it is. Only eat it if you'd be willing to eat the same amount in pure fat.

If you've eaten an acceptable amount of food but are still hungry, wait twenty minutes and you'll probably feel full.
Fiber is a natural laxative and makes you feel full.
Eat with your non-dominant hand.
Hot cocoa or chai tea with skim milk fills you up amazingly fast.
Give yourself tiny portions. If you put more than you need or even want on your plate, you'll feel obligated to eat it.
Imagine everything you're eating is coated in butter- even the utensils.
Stay away from Slim-fast and other "diet" foods. Glance at the nutrition facts and you'll see why. With all the carbs and excess calories you might as well go eat a freakin pie or something. They also cost a bundle.
Put your food money in a jar; buy something inedible at the end of the month as a reward for everything you didn't eat.
Tips to Burn Calories
Every bit of movement burns calories. Think of people in third-world countries who eat nothing and walk miles and miles every day.
Work out before you eat to burn fat instead of food.
Eating celery is better than drinking water! You've probably heard that it has negative calories, which means it takes more calories to digest than it contains.
Turn down the thermostat. Your body trying to keep warm burns tons of fat energy. It takes 200 (I believe) calories for your body to raise it's temperature one degree
