Diet Do's & Don'ts: Rules That'll Help You Lose Weight

Do Eat:

Fiber. Great sources of fiber: veggies, fruits and beans.

Raw vegetables.

Berries.

Nuts. A serving is a quarter-cup. Pistachios, raw almonds or cashews, macadamia nuts, Brazil nuts, pecans, you name it. They're packed with good fat and protein, but don't overdo it. Consider scattering them on a salad and you can take care of two items (nuts and raw veggies) in one.

Protein at every meal. Make it fish at least twice a week, preferably more. Fried (anything) does not count.

Don't Eat:

Pasta.

Most bread. Unless it is honest-to-God, certified, authenticated whole-grain bread

Commercial cereals. This includes anything in a cute box with the word "crunchy" on it. Read the ingredients. If you find more than five grams of sugar, put it down.

Sodas, even diet sodas.

Packaged cookies, cakes, pies, crackers and desserts.

Try it. Maybe nothing will come of it. Maybe you'll finally start to lose weight.

A healthy life = A long life

It's very important to eat healthy and exercise

Eating healthy and exercising can:

Improve your mood
Combat Chronic Disease
Helps manage your weight
Strengthen your heart and lungs
Put the spark back into your sex life

Does everything we love make us fat?

Whether it's cheese or chocolate, French fries or fried chicken, many of our favorite foods tend to lead to an expanded waistline. Now, you can add your significant other to the list of things you love that are causing weight gain.

eDiets conducted a survey of more than 1,500 people to see how relationships affect weight and an overwhelming three-quarters of those surveyed said it was easier to maintain a diet when single, and a similar percentage of respondents found it more tempting to eat bad foods with their partners.

However, the news on dating and dieting wasn't all negative. In fact, roughly three-in-four respondents said their partner was supportive of their weight-loss efforts and about half exercised the same amount or more in a relationship as when they were single.

"The good news is the survey shows that a healthy relationship and healthy eating habits can go hand-in-hand," says eDiets Director of Nutrition Services Pam Ofstein. "As it should! Take the support of your partner and commit to each other to build a healthier, stronger relationship and lifestyle."

The survey found that respondents took pleasure in snuggling up at home about as much as a long romantic walk together. Other interesting findings from the survey:

-- 57% feel that being in a relationship has a negative effect on their waistline
-- 63% feel their significant other would rather eat unhealthy foods or portions
-- 74% are more tempted to eat "bad foods" when they were with their partner
-- 75% said it was easier to maintain their diet when single
-- 59% would rather have a great relationship than a great body
