　　Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can mar environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
　　Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情) when they are in poorly lit places –and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.

Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors mas less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
