Many people have started taking a bowl of soup before taking food. A bowl of soup before eating your food helps in improving your appetite. You should not take the soup fast but allow it to cool down and slowly drink it. By drinking the soup slowly your hormones, brain and your stomach can interact with each other properly and you get a sense of fullness.
- Spice up the food that you take
Do you love spicy foods? Then there is good news for you. You can increase your metabolism temporarily about 8 per cent by eating spicy food and it helps in boosting the pace of calorie burning in your body. Also, when you eat spicy food then you tend to eat in a slow manner and this also helps in increasing metabolism.

You must eat something between your meals too. If you keep lots of gap between your meal then not only will you end up eating more but also you will eat very fast too. That is certainly not good for weight loss. Therefore eat in between your food certain snacks like almonds, crackers of whole wheat, low fat cheese or sliced apples. You may eat after every 1 hour.
