Families that have fruits and vegetables around eat more of them. So, keep fruits and vegetables visible. Put a bowl of fruit on the table and keep cut-up carrot and celery sticks in a clear container in the refrigerator. Why heat up the kitchen - and the house steaming veggies when there are so many fresh and easy to enjoy choices available this time of year?
Try a chef's salad for lunch, a fruit salad for dessert, or mixed greens along with your dinner. Many vegetables taste great in salads-try something different, like baby spinach, garbanzo beans, cauliflower, or red cabbage.
For a crunchy snack, try baby carrots or a crispy apple. For smooth and sweet, have a banana. Need a flavor jolt? Munch on dried apricots. Treat yourself to the luxury of fresh raspberries.
Many fruits and vegetables taste great with a dip or dressing. Try low-fat yogurt or pudding as a dip for fruits like melons. Try low-fat salad dressing with raw broccoli, red and green peppers, or cauliflower.
Or enjoy a fruit smoothie by blending low-fat milk or yogurt with fresh or frozen fruit. Try strawberries, bananas, peaches, and other fruits. They taste great and they're good for you!
Start eating healthy and get plenty of exercise and you'll be on the road to one of many natural and healthy ways to lose weight fast.

This is great information. I love the celery and carrot idea in a clear plastic container. I will try that and pass that along to my friends. I like how you emphasized fresh fruits and veggies (why bother steeming veggies? Eat them fresh!) instead of supplements and powders. Great post! Great tips!
