We all know how busy life can get, especially at this time of year with all the Christmas build up. This sometimes means we can forget to eat. Even me who loves my food, I can suddenly realise it is the middle of the afternoon. Which is why I have been enjoying So Body Co Meal Replacement Drinks. Also great for helping keep off those extra lbs we all put on over.

You need to Eat less and move more!
to be honest with you I have always struggled so possibly not the best person to ask and this was how I found your site, while looking up weight loss drinks. I guess one thing which does work is finding some form of exercise which you find fun, whether it’s walking or dancing to YouTube videos etc. Happy New year everyone.
I think a little bit of what you like in moderation
Get yourself a fit-bit or a smart watch and set yourself daily step goals.
Regular exercise along with healthy eating is the best combination for me.
Ive struggled with my weight for a while now. My son has just told me hes getting married this year in florida. this could be just what i need to get that weight off
Finding a hobby that’s physical that you enjoy, like walking. And being consistent with it!
I think it’s very important to set yourself realistic / achievable goals – especially when it comes to weight targets.
Set yourself long term goals, but also smaller steps to reach that.
I need to lose weight again now and thought these looked like a good way to do it easily, I found that diets such as weight watchers worked for me as everything was still allowed in moderation
Set small achievable goals instead of a big one, it makes you feel more successful and therefore motivates you to keep going
Eat protein for breakfast and fill your plate with lits of veg.
My goal is to eat less and move more! I’m hoping to finally get some control over my weight this year
Eat less – move more!
Cut down your portion sizes and exercise more.
And will power not to reach for the chocolates, biscuits and crisps.
Instead of having large portions of what you love reduce the amount. It becomes more of a treat then.
drink lots of water and keep active, they are my golden rules
Plenty of excercise and heathly eating! ❤️
make healthy living a priority for yourself and your family.
choose to eat good, healthy food.
dont deprive yourself of everything at once. it never works
find a routine and diet that you can maintain daily
my biggest tip is being in a calorie deficit and moving a little bit more
combination of healthy diet and exercise
My top tip is mindfulness eating: Pay attention to your hunger and fullness levels, and stop eating when you’re satisfied. Avoid distractions, such as screens, while eating, and take the time to enjoy your food.
My top tip for maintaining/losing weight is to do plenty of walking each day. Always walk short distances rather than driving.
Not using the ‘D’ word, and treating it as healthy lifestyle
Cutting out alcohol makes a huge difference. Instead of settling in front of the TV at night with a glass of wine, go out a 10 minute walk. Yes I know it is hard but by springtime you will feel so much better.
keep track of everything you eat
Basically to eat less, move more. I actually go through eating healthy thoroughout the week and then whatever I fancy from midnight on Friday until midnight on Saturday to lose weight
To eat everything in moderation and execercise more
To eat everything in moderation and execercise more
Don’t do any of the well-known diets. They can lead to disordered eating. Change habits slowly rather than crash dieting.
Running, If I stop I pile on the pounds fast! It is all about exercise and hydration for me!
I find that if I adjust my diet so that I’m not consuming any processed carbs, and instead filling up on protein it is the only way I can lose weight and also feel good at the same time!
Calorie counting and using the Nutracheck food diary helped me lose 50lb.
For me it’s exercise: I have a specific time of day when I do my Youtube workouts. It becomes part of your routine and it doesn’t feel like a chore then. I actually like meal replacements for lunch at work. I often don’t have time to sit down properly, and just need something quick to fill me up.
Drink a Pint of Water before each meal.
Cook more from scratch and eat less processed food while keeping active everyday.
im honestly still trying to figure it out!!!
I use intermittent fasting – eat within a certain time window 🙂
It would be walking every other day to stay fit and health and eat my five day every other day.
It would be walking every other day to stay fit and health.
get your head sorted and drink lots of water
Walk as much as you can, even a one mile walk to the shops only takes 20 minutes and gets you out in the fresh air
Changing lifestyle of the family so it’s done together
To have a goal in mind, to give you something to look forward too
I find using nutricheck is a good way to monitor intake.
It’s very important, as we get older, to lift weights. Not only for the health benefits but it creates muscle, which in turn burns more calories, win/win!
Keeping active I don’t drive so I walk everywhere I also do t weigh myself I go on the feel of my clothes
I have stopped eating bread and I am steadily losing weight.
make sure you drink plenty of water
Mine would be to not cut out treats or ‘junk’ but to limit it instead, there is nothing wrong with any types of food in moderation! Staying active helps with loss/maintaining and also keeps you healthy in general 🙂
Stay focused on what you eat but allow the occational treat.
So simple, no junk, eat real food, veg, meat, fish, nuts and pulses, and some daily exercise, even if its cleaning etc, and a little discipline….
If you are a grazer type. then have plenty of healthy grazing options but keep main mean portions smaller. Add exercise in a realistic way by doing functional exercise first, walking instead of car, taking steps and then adding a few strength classes per week.
Before you start your weight-loss journey, go through your fridge and kitchen cupboards forensically and chuck out anything that belongs to your old eating pattern, that you turned to for comfort, and which could trip you up. While you’re at it, check the use by dates. A certain member of my family, who I won’t name, had tinned vegetables and fruit 10 years after they should have been thrown out!
Plenty of exercise – lots of walking and bulk out meals with fruit and veg
Exercise and healthy eating habits that fit your daily life.
My tip for maintaining is to still eat the things you love, just in small amounts, and reach for healthier snack foods like veggie sticks and hummus for fibre and fullness.
Always use a smaller plate for meals as portion control is key to losing & maintaining weight.
My tip for losing weight is do your shopping at the major supermarket my last monthly shop filled a trolley, this month the same amount of money only fills a basket so thanks to Rishi Sunak we’re all eating less and losing weight!
I tend to use alternate-day fasting, you don’t really have to think about it,
Exercise more and eat less
My tip is to not focus only on what your eating/drinking, but pay attention to your activity levels too. Being active is just as important as diet, but I think some people overlook that.
Eat smaller meals, go out for long walks .
walk and healthy diet – can tell if my clothes start to get tight or loose
My clothes not fitting!
I identified what my bad eating weaknesses were and cut cheese and crisps completely out of my diet and lost 1 and a half stone.
My biggest tip for loosing weight is calorie counting and regularly doing some form of excerise
I tend to not weigh myself, but use how tight my clothes are to indicate if I need to try and lose weight!
My children (who give VERY honest opinions!!) and my wardrobe for fitting clothes are perfect motivators to lose weight!
Buyer clothes in a smaller size and trying them on weekly untily you reach that goal! This worked for me even though it sounds mad. It is all about mindset.
Keep active! Even it is to get up and wash the dishes or vacuuming. Choosing walking over taking the car or bus if there journey is less than 30 mins by foot. Also brush your teeth if you feel like snacking for comfort. Usually the taste of toothpaste reduces your appetite
Never think of losing weight as being a ‘diet’ – it has to be a lifestyle change, or the weight will just pile back on when you go back to eating normally! Intermittent fasting has helped me enormously to focus on eating more mindfully.
I find that having someone else as a motivator is always helpful for me. Keeps me on the right path!
