No magic diets or gimmicks

Diet Club

It has taken a whole year, without any magic diets or gimmicks, for me to lose 25kg. The hardest part was the decision to do it. Firstly I committed myself to a lifestyle change. I cut out snack foods, reduced the amount I ate, never ate after 8pm, never missed breakfast, never deprived myself of occasional treats (just had less), and exercised for 30 minutes each day.

This lifestyle change worked well for me but I felt even better when I ran into a friend I had not seen for a while. She told me that my few simple rules had inspired her to do the same and she lost 11kg in 8 weeks. I am happy that my weight loss success has helped others to do the same.
