The Food For Life Weight Loss System is based on 6 principles:

1. Attitude - The desire to lose weight for good health and a more productive, active, long life.

2. Food Intake - Following healthy eating patterns without pills, powders and potients which often make impossible promises.

3. Water Consumption - World Wide, the accepted water intake is 8 glasses a day for better health, effective weight loss, and overall better bodily functioning.

4. Exercise - The importance of being physically active and making exercise a regular part of your daily routine.

5. Realistic Goals - Choose a weight within the body mass index chart that suits your height and body structure. Healthy bodies come in many shapes and sizes.

6. Support - Have a family member or friend help you in positive ways by charting your progress and speaking words of praise and encouragement.
