Tips on changing your lifestyle.


  • Stick to many of your own food preferences but substitute them for the lower fat varieties. This way it will seem like less of a DIET and therefore more chance you’ll stick to it. Remember lifestyle change indicates a change for life!

  • If you need to completely cut out certain “junk” foods then cut them slowly and introduce favourite healthier foods a little at a time. *

  • Try to get into a habit of eating little and often.

  • Always remember to take it one step at a time, big changes are often too much too handle when within a few weeks they seem like hard work.

  • Don’t get too caught up with calorie content of everything, it should be a rough guide so you generally take in less calories until reaching your goal.

  • Try to reduce calories slowly over the course of a few weeks, maintain the intake when losing about one pound of weight each week then continue to lower calories slowly when weight loss stops.

  • Don’t obsess over scale weight you could be losing or gaining water, buy some fat monitors to check progress.

  • Don’t get hooked on trying to achieve the perfect nutrient ratio, as long as there is enough activity and less energy intake the weight should come down no matter how many carbs/protein are consumed.

  • Take a little time each day to plan your activities and stick to them.

  • Set small goals often and enjoy/ revel in the joy when you reach the ultimate goal!
