How much do you eat? Keep track of what you eat and how often. If you can, also keep track of how many calories you are taking in each day. Carrying a little notebook can be helpful so you don't forget anything you eat during the day. Do this for a full week if you can. If you know approximately how many calories for each item you eat, write that down too. If you don't know the calorie count, you can do that later.

Look at your diet and decide what you want to cut out. Also, think about a replacement for that particular food item. For example, salad dressing can be fattening. However, there are lite dressings that can be a substitute. Cutting down or reducing your intake on candies and sweets can also help you lose weight faster. If you drink soda, replace that with water or reduce your daily intake.
