#*A good place to start? [[Meditate|Meditation]] or [[Do Yoga|yoga]]. Yoga also burns calories, so that's two birds with one stone. If nothing else, take 15 minutes a day to sit down and get some zen. Too many days pass by where you don't get any "me" time! | #*A good place to start? [[Meditate|Meditation]] or [[Do Yoga|yoga]].

#[[Sleep Better|Sleep]]. More science! It seems that those who sleep more, weigh less. And it makes sense -- you feel good, you're body is running normally, and you have less time to eat! So get in your 8 or so hours. You'll feel all the better for it. | #[[Sleep Better|Sleep]]. More science! It seems that those who sleep more, weigh less.

| − | #*It has to do with your hormones leptin and ghrelin.<ref name="rf32" /> Your levels get all sort of messed up and it leads to them telling your body you're hungry when you're really just tired. And to top it off, when you're sleepy, you load up on sugar, grab take out for dinner because you're tired, and skip the gym for the same reason. That's three strikes right there. | + | #*It has to do with your hormones leptin and ghrelin.<ref name="rf32">http://www.apa.org/helpcenter/recognize-anger.aspx</ref> Your levels get all sort of messed up and it leads to them telling your body you're hungry when you're really just tired.

#Carefully consider fad diets. Let's tell it like it is: if you spend the next 10 days drinking nothing but lemonade and Sriracha, you're going to lose a ton of weight. You'll just feel like crap a week from now and all the weight will come back when you reintroduce food to your body. It totally messes up your metabolism and if you're looking for a long-term solution, this isn't it. But if you're looking to fit into that dress? Well...maybe. Just be careful. And don't tell your mom we mentioned it. | #Carefully consider fad diets.
