Keep A Food Diary
The act of logging what you eat makes you more aware of what and how much food you're eating. Pull out the pen and paper or use an app like MyFitnessPal.
For people who suffer from things like acne or digestion issues, tracking can help determine what the potential cause is. Writing it down also lets you get a big-picture view of your diet, which can allow you to fill in the gaps.
"Food diaries can be very helpful in weight control for individuals who are willing to do them carefully," Jeanne Goldberg, professor of nutrition at the Friedman School of Nutrition, Science, and Policy at Tufts University in Boston told The Wall Street Journal.
This tip isn't about restricting your food or eating less, but being aware of what you eat and how what you eat affects your individual body.
