Question

This is not a diet. It's a simple way to lose weight~ And you don' t even have to give up the food you love or join a gym. You just follow some habits that thin people have. Keep them, and you'll become thin.

When you have a meal, order a clear soup, and have it before having the main food. In this way, you'll feel fuller, so you'll eat less when the main food comes.
(3) An apple (or more) a day
Apples are full of fiber（纤维) and water, so your stomach will want less. The study shows that people who eat at least three, apples a day lose weight.
