15 Best Tips for Fat Flush Success..KEYWORDS: low fat dieting diets diet tips low fat diets I've recruited my husband to follow the Fat Flush Plan with me. Together we can encourage one another, prepare foods that we can both eat and set an example for the kids on healthy eating and teamwork. Here are 15 of my best tips for success.

1. Don't diet alone:

I've recruited my husband to follow the Fat Flush Plan with me. Together we can encourage one another, prepare foods that we can both eat and set an example for the kids on healthy eating and teamwork.

2. Find support online:

Find an online support group forum or message board to communicate with others with the same goals.

3. Clean out your cupboards:

The first few days are the hardest, when you feel withdrawal from your usual foods and routine. I've found that the best thing to do is throw everything out that you can't have on the plan. If it's not there, you won't eat it.

4. Get organized:

I cannot stress how much being organized has helped me! Measure out your daily ingredients ahead and store them.

5. Plan your meals:

I find that if I lay out all the foods allowed per day in the refrigerator, I am less likely to cheat. I can see there are food choices for me if I'm hungry and I will be less likely to choose something that is not on Fat Flush. It also looks like quite a bit of food, so I don't feel deprived.

6. Beat binges with healthy snacks:

I keep a small cooler of vegetables and cran-water in my car and enjoy them on my way home from work. It takes the edge off the 'eat everything in sight' syndrome when I get home and ensures I get my vegetables.

7. Drink all your cran by measuring ahead:

To make sure I drink enough cran-water, I bought a few Rubbermaid quart containers. They are marked with four-ounce increments so I can measure the amount of cranberry juice and add the correct amount of water. That provides me with the 32 ounces of cran-water a day, and whenever I need to drink a glass, the container is marked so I know how much to pour out.

8. Journal:

Food cravings are warning flags. They let you know what your body is lacking. Keeping a journal of what you crave will help you pinpoint what areas need support.

9. Make delicious smoothies:

When making a smoothie, add the whey powder last and only blend for a short time. This will keep the drink from becoming all froth, which is difficult to drink.

10. Make it easy to get enough flaxseed oil:

To get the daily requirement in my diet, I make a salad dressing of flaxseed oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic, lemon, ground flaxseed, spices and a tad of Dijon mustard, and keep it handy in my refrigerator at work. It's easier to handle the flaxseed oil as a dressing, and it doesn't make such a mess. If I need to consume additional oil, I'll take a flaxseed oil capsule.

11. Cheat smart:

My tip, while not strictly 'legal' on this plan, is to always have fresh strawberries on hand. Whenever I feel the need to 'cheat,' I have one or two, and the urge goes away.

12. Give yourself a pep talk:

Continually tell yourself that you can do it! Set a personal goal for yourself each day, something very simple that you can stick to. Each time you achieve this goal, it will give you more motivation to keep on trying and not give up!

13. Make frozen cranberry juice snacks:

I freeze the cran-water mix in ice cube trays and make a slushy in my blender. It's perfect as a snack between lunch and dinner.

14. Resist sugar cravings:

I am a sugar addict, and the way I've weaned myself off it is to have fruit and sugarless gum in my purse, at my desk and at home. After a few days of fruit, my sugar cravings begin to subside. And using Stevia sweetener in my tea is a little sugary treat that doesn't derail my progress.

15. Make tasty snacks:

For a great afternoon snack, I cut up an apple and sprinkle cinnamon on it. Not only does it curb my appetite until dinner, it also takes care of my cravings for something sweet.
