  • Thats totally achievable. Focus more on cutting calories rather than the gym if that isn't your thing. (Gyms intimidate me heaps!) Try going for walks or doing a fun group class once a week with a supportive friend.

  • If you have a lot of weight to lose, speak to your doctor about plans and maybe seeing a specialist like a dietician. Losing a large amount of weight is really hard and will take time. Your body will go through a lot of changes and it's great feeling like you have a "team" to support you! (No, I'm not saying HEAPS of…

  • I find that routine is the only thing that keeps me on track. That being said, I don't ever stick to the EXACT same meals - I think that would drive me crazy. I have coffee and smoothie for brekky but mix up what goes in my smoothie. For lunch its soup or a frozen meal or some salad - this gives me enough variety most of…

  • My doctor prescribed me some diet pills but I quickly decided they weren't for me. I suffered heart palpatations, hot & cold flushes and sleeplessness.

It's easy to add grated carrot or zucchini into heaps of things like mince, sauce, even muffins. Try soups like minestrone or chicken and vegetable. Add some flavour with herbs & spices, even honey. if…
