Useful Tips to Reduce Weight
It is true that once the weight is reduced and brought down to the desirable level, food intake
must be slightly increased. But see that the intake is not too
much to start increasing the weight once again. To ensure
stability in the weight, make it a practice to weigh yourself once a
week. It is essential that you weigh yourself in the same type of
clothes each time.
