How to Lose Weight for Good

Spring is in the air and the baggy jumpers and oversized coats will soon be banished to the back of the wardrobe. If only it were that easy to be rid of your winter flab! You would go on a diet but you always put it straight back on again plus a little more for luck. It's not your fault: weight loss triggers hunger - more than 95% of dieters regain their lost weight within five years.

No need to panic though, there is a way you can slim down and stay that way without the need to count calories, embarrass yourself at a slimming group, starve two days a week or develop a taste for quinoa or pomegranate seeds. 

Short term faddy diets are not the answer. They almost always lead to rebound weight gain because your appetite remains raised until you have maintained your new lower weight for at least six months. The key to becoming slimmer is to adopt a lifestyle diet that helps you permanently change your eating habits.

Choose wholefoods and home-made meals, rather than buying takeaways, ready meals, puddings, cakes, biscuits and chocolate. Sugary, fatty foods stimulate the appetite and are energy dense, and soft drinks add a lot of calories to your diet. Drink water instead - that's the stuff that comes free out of the tap. Cut out sugar in tea and coffee and reduce your intake of alcohol as excessive drinking makes you fat. 

Favour meat, fish, eggs, cheese, milk, beans, nuts, heavy bread, potatoes and wholegrains. These are the foods your grandparents ate when obesity was rare and convenience foods didn't exist. If you look very carefully you will find real food in a far flung corner of your local supermarket. You may not have eaten this way since you were at primary school, but only by going back to basics will you have a realistic hope of achieving the body you desire.

Three protein rich meals a day help you resist the temptation to snack. Eating more protein makes you feel fuller which compensates for the increase in appetite caused by weight loss. Include some starchy carbs with your meals. They prevent the food cravings that sabotage many diets. Vegetables provide bulk, so don't just leave them on the side of your plate. A piece of fresh fruit after a meal provides sweetness now you are no longer eating desserts.
