The First Step...

So, you wanna lose weight eh? Well we all know how to do that - cut down on your food intake and do more exercise. It really is that simple. Use up more calories than you consume. What's the big deal?

The big deal is that even though we have this knowledge, the majority of us find it so difficult to put it into practice. Some of us don't know how to take action, how to start, what to do. That is where I come in. Each week (and sometimes more frequently) I will give you an idea to think about or an instruction to follow and I guarantee that if you implement it, and integrate it into your lifestyle you start to see and feel the difference within a week.

I am here to show you that losing weight does not need to be an arduous task, it does not need to take ages, that it can be fun and exciting. 'How?' I hear you cry. I will show you. Just promise to give some thought to every idea presented, to give each instruction or suggestion a chance. If it doesn't work for you that's fine because lots of other things will but at least you know that you tried it.

Your first task is to go and get a tape measure. Measure around your bust, waist and hips, round your thigh and bicep and make a note of these figures.

Don't bother weighing yourself. That is unimportant. Scales are useless, depending on the 'time of the month' some women can put on up to half a stone. Try explaining that to the scales! Of course you can use scales if you wish, but I feel they do not give an accurate reading so I personally wouldn't bother with them. A long mirror, a tape measure and your clothes are all you need to monitor your weight loss!
