Unfortunately these two love affairs have failed to find a healthy symbiotic relationship with each other in my life. Rather they have caused chaos and havoc on my body and mind.

I, like many other women, face a daily battle with beating the bulge. I hang onto old images of myself two stone lighter, yet have no problem polishing off a box of biscuits in one sitting. I want to lose weight. But I want to keep on eating delicious treats. I have come to realise that my constant stressing over shedding has resulted in me not losing a pound.
\In essence, thinking about burning off blob has driven me to binge. It seems that body image and the worry that comes with can in fact be more harmful for your weight than eating itself. In order to be a successful weight loser, I realised that there was one simple equation that has proved a more valuable tool then any algebra – exercise more and eat less equals a skinnier you.
Yes, girlies, my weight loss success advice is simple: Ditch the diet, eat healthy delicious fresh produce, have a biscuit, have an off day. Following outlandish diet plans such as feasting on 15 pineapples in one sitting does only one thing and it isn’t shed kilos. It interferes with you living your precious life.
