Jillian Michaels golden tips for staying slim

Slim tips for long term results

Staying slim after you've lost the weight is a choice. A choice you make every single day. But... it doesn't need to be a hard one.

What it really all boils down to, is a few simple lifestyle changes.

Losing the weight was the hard part, maintaining your new, healthy weight and trim figure is the fun (and easier) part!

The Biggest Loser fitness expert, Jillian Michaels, shares some of her favourite tips for staying slim below:

1. Make a date with your scale. At the same time every morning or once a week – whatever works for you. Jot it down in a notebook or on your phone to keep track of your progress.

2. Indulge... in three teaspoons. That's right, you can have your cake and eat it! Completely depriving your body of treats is never a good thing as it can lead to binging. So, when the craving hits, take three tiny bites of your guilty pleasure and walk away for 10 to 15 minutes. This gives your body enough time to register that it's received the sweet or salty fix it was craving, and you should feel satisfied.

3. Wrap yourself in ribbons. The next time you go out to eat, tie a ribbon around your waist. You'll feel more aware of what you're putting into your body and a lot less likely to overdo it.
