Healthy Eating

Weight loss.  Since time began (well perhaps a few years after!), the subject of weight loss has been a hot potato with a variety of methods moving in and out of fashion – both aiding weight loss or, indeed, feigning weight loss!  The tightly corseted waists of yesteryear was perhaps one of the more ‘restricting’ weight loss methods – offering the benefits of a teeny weeny waist, but with the less appealing side effects of being unable to sit, eat or (in dire circumstances) breathe! 

Although the corset has had its time, there are many other restrictive, unappealing and, frankly, frightening weight loss methods available today:

• Weight loss programmes based on blood type – described by the WHO as…..
• Tablets promising quick and easy weight loss without any lifestyle changes – expensive, short-term and misleading
• Exercise videos starring reality TV stars who say their weight loss was all down to squats and crunches – but don’t let you know about the dietary changes they made too!
• Meal replacements that have all the flavour of a cup of mud and make long-term weight loss and maintenance of that loss as realistic as bumping into George Clooney in Tesco’s and eloping together!

And when you think of the reasons we embark on weight loss programmes…
…shouldn’t we ditch this 'dieting help', give ourselves a break and enjoy it?
