Drink plenty of water!
Drink at least eight to ten 8-ounce glasses of water every day in addition to your Cambridge Food For Life Nutrition products! Coffee, tea, or diet soda is permitted although not as a substitute for water. As you decrease the quantity of food in your diet, you also reduce the fluid intake from those foods. Since the body composition is approximately 60% water, it is very important to replenish those fluids. So, drink up!

Don't skip servings.
Three servings of the Cambridge Food For Life Nutrition products each day assure you that you are getting the vital nutrition needed for good health. Do not skip any servings while on your weight loss program. You will not lose weight any faster, but you will sacrifice essential nutrition.

Use quality water.
The Cambridge Food For Life Nutrition drinks, soups, and cereal are especially formulated for great taste! If your tap water has a strong taste, we suggest that you try filtered or bottled water so as not to distort the flavor.

Weigh weekly.
For a long-term commitment, weighing daily can be detrimental to your program. The weight of the liquids you consume daily can add two or more pounds to your weight.

Keep busy!
The first few days of your weight loss program will probably be the most challenging, so plan to keep busy. If you feel hungry, chew sugar-free gum, have a drink of water, or get involved in some other activity to distract your attention away from food.

Be aware of what you are eating.
Become very conscious of any and all food that goes into your mouth. "Nibbles" and inbetween- meal snacks that are not part of your meal pattern are easily forgotten, but the calories they add are not! If you must snack, choose a small portion of a low-fat, low-calorie food and include these calories in your daily total. A half-serving of a Cambridge Food For Life Nutrition drink, soup, Super Oats, or bar is a good selection. Awareness of what you eat is the key to good weight control.

Know your strenghts & weaknesses.
Get to know yourself - learn your eating habits, strengths, and weaknesses. There are ways to control them. Be honest - no one else has to know! Ask your Cambridge Distributor about the Support Guide learning program for help. You can learn to say "no" to food and learn when to say "yes" without feeling guilty.

Reward yourself!
Think of new rewards for yourself. There is life beyond food!

Remain Committed.
Commitment is key. Follow your program with sincerity and regularity, and you will succeed!
