Want to slim down for the summer? Here are some great tips from the expert:
  1. one time each day: eat a high-protein breakfast - researches found people who added protein-rich eggs at breakfast experienced greater fullness throughout the day; dieters who dined on eggs at their morning meal lost more weight and reported more energy
  2. two times each day: spice things up - adding spicy seasonings to meals suppresses your appetite and slightly revs your metabolism
  3. three times each day: sip on iced or hot green tea before or with meals - fills you up with liquid volume which takes the edge off your hunger so you eat less food; green tea can also slightly rev your metabolism, just don't add sugar
  4. four cups of vegetables must be eaten throughout the day - embrace non-starchy vegetables, such as broccoli, spinach, carrots, cauliflower, green beans, and bell peppers are rich in fiber and water
  5. five times each day: do a set of 100 jumping jacks - you'll burn about 100 calories doing 500 jumping jacks a day, and it only takes about 2 minutes to knock out each set of 100 jacks, so that's 10 minutes total for the day
