Article: These three food groups are relatively low in calories, high in nutrients, and are very filling and satiating. Combining them at most meals can help you lose weight. When you're trying to lose weight and cut calories, you'll need to choose nutrient-dense foods. These are items that are relatively low in calories, but also high in nutrients. Produce (fruits and vegetables) are high in a variety of nutrients including fiber. Higher amounts of fiber helps you feel full and stay satisfied for longer. This may help you eat less and snack less throughout the day. Include one to two servings of fruits or vegetables at each meal. Make sure to measure your portions to 1/2 cup of fruit, 1 cup of vegetables and 2 cups of leafy greens. Protein is another type of food that can help you feel satisfied longer throughout the day and moderate your appetite. It also helps support your metabolism during the day. Include a source of lean protein like chicken, fish, tofu, beans, shellfish, or low-fat dairy at each meal. Stick to a 34 oz portion of these lean proteins. Including a few servings of whole grains helps balance out your diet. These foods also contain moderate amounts of fiber and may help you stay more satisfied. Although whole grains are more nutritious compared to refined grains (like white bread or white rice), they do not offer as many nutrients as protein, fruits, or vegetables. Choose whole grain foods over simple carbs, or refined grains, as in white bread, crackers, baked goods. Try: brown rice, quinoa, oats, farro, whole wheat bread, or whole wheat pasta. Measure your portions of whole grain foods to help you lose weight. Measure out 1 oz or about 1/2 cup of grains. Remember that one slice of bread is one serving but a bun or bagel is two servings. Highly processed foods include bread, pastries, sweets, fast food, and frozen prepared meals. Try to avoid these often as they are typically more calorie-dense compared to less processed foods. Eating many processed foods throughout the day may prohibit weight loss. Many processed foods are higher in calories, fat, sugars and other additives. If you currently rely heavily on processed foods, slowly make the switch to less processed foods. Start by making one meal or snack at home or pack to bring with you. Also, meal planning and meal prep can help you be more prepared and have meals and snacks ready-to-go which may make it easier to pass up processed items. Drink adequate water is great for your overall health; however, it's also great for weight loss. One way in which water can help you lose weight is by making you feel physically full. Like food, water takes up space in your stomach. Drinking a large glass before a meal can help you feel satisfied before your meal starts. Also, drinking a glass of water when you're feeling hungry before a meal can help you feel satisfied without a snack. Drinking adequate fluid all day can also help your weight by maintaining adequate hydration. Even when you're slightly dehydrated, you may feel hunger signals when in fact you're only thirsty. Aim for at least 64 oz (2 litres) of clear fluids each day. Stick to no-calorie and decaffeinated beverages like water, flavored water or unsweetened decaf tea. Eating slower may help you eat smaller portions, fewer calories and lose weight. It gives your body time to register that you are satiated. Most health experts recommend taking about 2030 minutes to eat a meal. This allows your GI system to send satiation or satisfied signals to your brain. When you eat much faster than this, you're more likely to overeat or eat too much in one sitting. Try setting a timer, putting your fork down in between bites, taking a sip of water in between bites, and talking to your friends or family. These tricks can help slow you down. Taking a daily multivitamin may be a good idea when you're trying to lose weight. This will not speed weight loss, but may help meet nutrient needs when you're cutting calories. Multivitamins and any vitamin doesn't cause weight loss. Only cutting out calories and exercising can cause weight loss. However, if you're cutting out a significant amount of calories (500-1,000 to lose 2 pounds in a week), you may not be able to eat enough to meet your daily nutrient needs. Always talk to your doctor prior to starting any supplementation. He or she will be able to tell you if this is safe and appropriate for you.

Article: You don't need to tear through several newspapers per day, but having a basic understanding of what's going on in the world will give you a reputation of being smart and knowledgeable, both of which are attractive qualities. This process can be as simple as going on Google News and reading two or three of the biggest stories each day. You don't have to sound like a know-it-all to bring up something interesting and relevant. People will think it's cool that you have time to think about the world -- not just yourself. If you have no idea what's going on in the world, you'll look clueless -- and that's just not cool. Whether you join a club at school or take a screenwriting class in your community, doing something that you love will not only make you more interesting, but it can help you make new friends. Don't be shy about pursuing your interests, even if some of the things you love may not be traditionally considered to be "cool." If you join a club, you can eventually have a leadership position in the organization, which is very cool. The more you can do, the cooler you'll be. Learn how to fix a car, build a table, finish a deck, or even to cook the perfect steak. If you have a skill, you'll not only be useful to others, but people will think it's cool that you took the initiative to do something. Once you've mastered a skill, you can even teach it to someone else. Now that's cool. Though certain interests, like team sports, can be developed better in groups, part of being cool is being able to spend time learning things on your own. Anyone who is comfortable spending time by himself and who even likes spending time by himself is much cooler than a person who is so socially eager that he's desperate to always be hanging out with people. Spend time learning to play the guitar, picking up a new language, or just writing down your thoughts in a journal. This will help you figure out who you are and you'll become cooler in the process. If you're always around, people will take you for granted. But if you're sometimes busy because you're catching up on some alone time, then people will appreciate you more when you're around.
