Yeah! I lost 2 pounds this last week. Now I know that really isn't a big deal(yeah yeah, only 48 more to go!), but the reason I am bringing it up is because I recently decided to stay home and start an online business from the comfort of my living room.
Access to the fridge whenever I get bored, lonely, or frustrated. Not a good thing. I had all these visions of gaining 2 pounds or more a week. I know it takes 3500 calories to put on a pound but not really hard to do when your cupoboards are full of pudding(145 calories a cup), cups of fruit(115 calories a cup), bags of mini chocolate bars(45 calories a bar), bags of fudgee cookies(110 for 2 cookies), marshmallows(100 calories a handful). You get my point. Keeping that in mind though I decided to really concentrate on staying out of thoses cupboards and keeping active. Since I don't have a set schedule anymore, when I do get the urge to binge I have taken on the habit(well too early to call a habit, so, habit in the making)of walking out the door and heading around the block to discuss with myself the true reason I am reaching for food. I have found that in the 20 minutes it takes to walk around my block I am no longer "hungry" when I get back inside. It is also helping me to associate my food habits with other psychological issues(but that is another subject).
I am still trying to incorporate better food into my diet. It is hard when you have been eating the same kinds of food for years. But I am starting with the concentrated effort. Here is a tip for you.
Another Point for Fiber
Fiber not only helps maintain healthy digestion, it also may help keep your blood vessels from narrowing.
Increasing fiber intake from cereal and whole grains appeared to slow blood vessel narrowing in a recent study. Narrowing blood vessels are commonly seen in people who have atherosclerosis, a progressive condition that can lead to heart attack or stroke. Add fiber-filled foods to your diet gradually to reduce the risk of bloating and stomach upset.

RealAge Benefit: Eating 25 grams (38 grams if you are a man under 50) of fiber per day makes your RealAge 2.5 years younger than eating 12 grams of fiber per day.
