Hints continued...

17. Always remove the skin and fat from chicken and fish before cooking.
18. Never, never, never eat between meals.
19. Any time you are hungry between meals. Wait 2o minutes. You will probably not even be hungry any more.
20. If you are still hungry after a 20-minute delay, drink a large glass of hot or cold water, then wait 20 minutes more. If you are still hungry, eat a Happy Hunger Helper.
21. If you do have a particular food craving, first follow rules 19 and 20. If you still absolutely must eat that food, allow yourself three small bites. Throw the rest away, even before you eat.
22. If you live alone, throw out all the fatty junk food you have immediately!
23. Avoid buffets! If you must go, use a salad or dessert plate instead of a large dinner plate.
24. If you are a nervous nibbler, chew sugar-free gum instead of munching food.
25. Remember food from other people's plates has calories too, and so do leftovers.
26. Eat only foods you like! Do not eat just to be polite.
27. Never go out hungry, especially for lunch, cocktails, or dinner.
