Uf, to lose weight….some say it is complicated while others claim that it’s pretty simple.
I think that anybody interested in losing weight should not panic: the world is full of great suggestions and ideas!
For example, I managed to lose weight by combining a raw food diet with a few hours of fitness per week.

Yes, yes, I know: everybody tells you to exercise.
So, let’s change the tone a little bit: why not have fun?
What can be more fun that swimming?

A while back I decided to go on a diet and get rid of the few extra pounds I thought I had.
I was advised to involve someone else as well into it, because it can help and motivate, but I had second thoughts about it.
Is it good or bad to diet with someone and use that person as a support buddy?
According to my experience, motivating each other can be good, but you also have to be careful with it.
Weight loss motivation
After a while you will ask yourself: “Am I dieting for myself or for her/him?”.
If you chose your diet partner from your own household, things can get trickier, because you don’t only share the experience, but you also (more…)

Before I decided to change my eating habits, I tried a few diets that after one or two months failed miserably.
I tried to think about the things that went wrong and I came up with the 7 reasons that made me quit every time I started something.

Sometimes I stand in front of the mirror and wonder, why is it that I can’t lose weight?
I’ve never been an overweight person, but the look of unhealthy, saggy layers of fat, no matter how small they were lead me to desperation.
Whenever I worked out a weight loss strategy, something went completely wrong and I gave up very quickly.
I know I’m not the only person in this situation. Maybe if I share my thoughts YOU can find out what you did wrong.
One of my biggest problems is that I can’t say no to my mums’ cooking. A lovely warm meal of hers, that isn’t necessarily healthy is (more…)
