Make it part of your routine to have a tall glass of water before you sit down for a meal. It's good for your body, and you're likely to eat less, too. In one study, people on a diet ate about 85 fewer calories per meal if they drank 16 ounces about a half-hour before each mealtime. Over 12 weeks, they lost 5 pounds -- about 50% more than those who didn't drink up before sitting down.
