  A number of recent studies have shown how making several small lifestyle changes could help you lose weight without losing the pleasure to enjoy the food you love.

  1.Use a smaller plate

  A Comell University study found that when a fixed portion(一份,一客)of food was eaten from a large plate, diners felt they had been given a smaller than average portion, so ate more.When the same portion of food was eaten from a smaller dish, the meal seemed more, so they ate less.

  2.Eat with men

  Eat with men if you're a woman.According to psychologist Meredith Young, women eat less if there are men around.She told The Atlantic:"It is possible that small food portions signal attractiveness."

  3.Avoid light at night

  This includes late-night television and computer use.A study into the effects of bright light or darkness on weight-gain in mice found that those under a bright light at night gained 50 per cent more weight than those in darkness.

  4.Be careful around friends

  Children eat more with a friend than with a stranger, according to a study at the State University of New York at Buffalo.Researchers said that it, which applies to adults too, can be blamed on the fact that friends act as so-called permission-givers, and encourage one to eat.

  5.Be aware of skinny friends who eat a lot

  Worse still, are thin friends who have large appetites.A study found that participants ate more during a movie when accompanied by a skinny person who ate a Jot, compared with those sitting next to a fat person who ate a lot.

  6.Avoid advertisements for exercise

     On Tuesday,,a new study published in the American Heart Association's journal Circulation:Heart
Failure revealed that women who ate five or more dishes of baked fish had a thirty percent lower risk of
heart failure in comparison to women who ate less than one dish a month.
     Researchers examined the diets of 84,493 women,,whose ages ranged from 50 to 79.The women who had eaten lots of baked fish like salmon (鲑鱼),,were more healthy than those who mostly ate tuna (金枪鱼)or white fish.Eating baked fish also appeared to provide a protection against high blood pressure.The
study also found that those women who ate more baked fish were likely to have a lower weight,,exercise more and eat more fruits and vegetables in comparison to those who ate fried fish.
