Cut down on the snacks at work!! No more 10am Crisps, choccy and coke Stick it out till lunch and try and have chicken salad baguette or something!!! Same goes for the afternoon!!

Gym is a bonus, but only if you actually stick at it.. if you just try it for 2 weeks it actually makes it harder to burn off fat as your body reacts to the exercise!

Best have

2 slices of brown toast with something like marmite
cup of tea with no suger
brown bread sandwich. say pure chicken breast with salad. No mayo etc.
always have diet coke not real coke. 1pint Coke = 220 calories the same as lager

just think everything counts.

then healthy meal in the evening. again avoid all the things that take a healthy meal into an unhealthy meal. Cheese etc...

If you join a sports team or something you can eat pretty much what you want and drink what you want and still stay thin
