Plan!!
Follow a calorie controlled healthy diet, plan a treat day,
Move more every day, take one day at a time.
Buy a smaller size to try on once a week.
Don't struggle on if you need a fill, go get sorted !
Write down what you eat
Find something to keep you busy,
plan ahead for danger times so you have a healthy snack ready to avoid getting too hungry
Don't expect to go on auto pilot and slim without any effort
effort DOES get rewarded and we have a fantastic tool if we are prepared to do our part xxxx
Get support, either through a slimming club, diet buddy or online with us... it really helps to get through the tough times xx

Patience!
