Needing a change

“When my 19-year marriage broke down, I was devastated. For three years, I cut myself off from friends and spent hours alone eating chocolate, ballooning from 10st to nearly 18st and a whopping size 26. My knees ached with the extra weight and I knew I had to take back control of my life, so I visited a dietician.

Top 10 Diet Tips

These tips come curtosey of James Dennis, an amazing weight loss story, he shares some of the pointers that helped him during this time.

1: Drink plenty of water.

This is by far the most important tip on any diet plan, and it is good for you as well. Nearly everyone I know (who is dieting) who has upped their water intake, has decreased there calorie intake! Simple. It has become quite common knowledge now that people can confuse hunger with thirst; the knock on effect from this is that you can end up eating calories you really don’t need.
"If you don't like plain water, try adding citrus or a splash of juice, or brew infused teas like mango or peach, which have lots of flavor but no calories," says Cynthia Sass, R.D. a spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association.

CAUTIONARY NOTE! Check the labels as many of these have calories in them!
