Drink more water. At times during a hectic day, you guess you are peckish but in truth you might only want a restorative glass of water or cranberry juice. The sensations of needing food and needing a drink are close, but one can result in a fat tummy and the alternative is ok.

Some low carb diet tips:
* Know what is in your food Be sceptical of food packaging that boasts 'low carb' - check the nutritional information on the reverse of the can or package.
