    "14 Dieting by yourself. A study in the journal Obesity earlier this year found that team-mates in a weight-loss competition significantly influenced each other’s weight loss. ‘We know that obesity can be socially contagious, but now we know that social networks play a significant role in weight loss as well,’ said lead author Tricia Leahey, of the Miriam Hospital in the U.S.

    A study in the Lancet journal earlier this year found that people who joined a diet class such as Weight Watchers lost more than twice as much weight as those who received weight-loss advice from a doctor or nurse."

    so looks like MFP is helping me too :smile:

    Peeps, whilst there may be some nuggets in there, taking diet and lifestyle advice from the woman-hating, image-obsessed Daily Mail is like taking parenting advice from Dina Lohan.

    I totally agree with some of the reasons, but I totally DISAGREE with the statement about yoga. It has made a huge difference in my fitness level. And I have received many NSV's due to how tone I have become.

    Haha! Yes! Take the Daily Mail with a pinch of salt - they like a good health scare.

    Hmmm.... I TOTALLY have experience with this one: 20 Buying too great a variety of foods. Fewer food choices and instilling culinary boredom could be the key to successful weight loss. Researchers reporting in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that when women were offered the same food over and over again, they tended to eat less overall.

    I recently changed up my eating habits (on week 3 now), and I am SOO uberly bored with my diet--I feel like all I eat is chicken and some kind of veggie. Last night for dinner I cut my chicken breast in half and only ate half of it...I just didn't want to eat chicken anymore! So, I consumed less calories for dinner than usual.
