Woman's Own diet: 15 easy ways to lose weight
Still think losing weight means a strict diet? Check out these easy tips from food nutritionist
Monica Grenfell that will have those pounds melting away before you know it!
1. Step on the scales
It might sound obvious but weighing yourself once a week is no different from brushing your teeth or shaving your legs - part of looking after yourself. Studies show that if you haven't weighed yourself for six months you can underestimate by a stone.
And while clothes feeling tighter seems like a good way to check, it can be misleading - hormones can bloat us, while alcohol dehydrates and makes you feel thinner. So be brave, step on the scales!
2. Eat Eggs
To burn fat more efficiently, you need the B vitamin biotin, found in egg yolks. One egg a day is enough.
3. Take your mind off it
Don't just pound the streets, use motivational music. The new Euphoria Run-Fit Workout is a custom-made workout soundtrack designed to motivate and power your running session by getting faster as it goes. Available from itunes, it gives you a full 60 minutes of running music for just £6.32
