When I met my consultant, Mel Lay, I was feeling desperate. I’ve always struggled with my weight, so much so that in 2014 I had bariatric surgery. I thought that was going to be the answer to all of my prayers. Over the years I’d tried so many times to shift the weight - hypnotherapy, Weight Watchers, Atkins, 5-2 and so on - but it was always the same story. I managed to lose some weight but eventually I put it all back on and more.
Over the years since having my children the weight has gradually increased , working most of my life in an office environment where I sat at the desk with little exercise didn’t help .

After a month of excess and too much time on the sofa, you can often feel sluggish and will probably have piled on the pounds too. The best way to start feeling and looking better in the New Year is to get active. While it’s hard to start, once you start exercising, you’ll love how it makes you feel, your energy will increase and you’ll lose fat and improve your body shape and definition.
Hello December! For most of us December is a great month, with excitement building towards Christmas, lights and decorations everywhere and lots of parties to enjoy. However, when you’re on a diet, this holiday can be a struggle. Every party and celebration seems to revolve around rich, high calorie food and alcohol and temptation is there at every turn.
The countdown to the Christmas party season is on, and for many people struggling with their weight it can be a tough time. We are all expected to glam up and enjoy the party with our friends and colleagues, but if nothing fits, or you don’t like the way you look then it can feel hard.
Summer in Spain is fantastic with hot days, balmy nights and lots going on. Long days spent on the beach, by the pool, or at the waterpark are incredible – unless you’re self-conscious about your weight. If you lack body confidence and don’t like your shape, then these wonderful summer activities can feel like torture and you probably just want to hide away until winter rolls around again.
Four obese volunteers with serious weight-related health issues, including type 2 diabetes, go on a total diet replacement programme for the BBC's "The Big Crash Diet Experiment" and give up real food, surviving on a very low calorie soups-and-shakes diet. The programme features department researchers Professor Susan Jebb and Professor Paul Aveyard, who provide expert advice on crash diets throughout the duration of the experiment.
A landmark trial funded by Diabetes UK has shown that it is possible to put Type 2 diabetes into remission using an intensive low calorie formula diet-based weight management programme.

In Spain, more than 2.6 million women suffer from menopause related symptoms. It is estimated that only four out of ten women treat these symptoms, which in many cases directly affect their quality of life.
Think about how you hydrate, and you'll see that you can do better.
Staying hydrated is very important and we usually drink the same type of drinks, when in fact, if you take a few minutes, you can enjoy delicious drinks, slushies, lollies, and jellies with virtually no calories, with a delicious taste and providing those liquids so necessary for the proper functioning of our health.
I have always carried weight – deliciously plump, as my parents would say! Of course we do know that is a euphemism for fat! I have diet previously and lost weight but in the most recent times, I found my job really stressful and my reward every evening was to have a long drink. As I
I had been struggling with a way to manage my weight without support here in Spain for some time, I had some success with meal replacement plans, healthy eating and exercise, also tried a local nutritionist, but I never really got to where I wanted to be weight wise, the progress was too slow, I found myself yo yo ing and dissatisfied with my progress.
I'm 53, with arthritis and going through the menopause, but I feel fantastic.
Healthy people, with strong mental and physical health usually have one important thing in common - good nutrition. We all know we should care for our physical health through proper diet and exercise, however, on many occasions this can be a real challenge. Our stressful and busy lifestyle makes our good intention of cooking a well-balanced, home-cooked meal every night hard to keep. Lack of time means that many days all we can manage is a ready meal, fast food or greasy takeaway.
Meal replacement products are an effective way to help people who are obese or overweight to lose weight more rapidly and more easily than by following a conventional calorie-controlled diet. As the issue of obesity grows ever more dominant in our society, meal replacement products play an important role in tackling this problem and have been shown to be significantly more effective than the traditional tools and methods.

What is a meal replacement product and why does it help you lose weight?
We all know how to lose weight – eat less and move more, and yet it is much harder than it seems! There are so many hidden calories in the things we eat and drink, even those so-called healthy foods can have much more fat, sugar or calories than we realise.
Portion control is also an issue. We tend to underestimate the amount we’re eating. This means that without weighing and measuring everything we consume, we could be significantly under valuing the calories we’re eating each day.
Last but not least we are short on time and often on the go, so cooking nutritious food from fresh three times a day is not always realistic.
It’s a new year and a new decade, so the perfect time to set yourself the challenge of becoming healthier, losing weight and feeling and looking great. Many of us choose losing weight as our New Year’s Resolution, but few actually stick to it.
More than ghosts and ghouls, Halloween is known for the sweet treats and sugar filled goodies. Whether you are a parent who is watching their weight, your kid responds badly to sugar, or you just want to teach healthy eating and nutritious alternatives to junk food, this article is for you.
It’s back to school time! Mums around Spain are getting books, backpacks and lunch boxes, checking shoes and uniforms and getting ready to return to the routine of the school year. This is a great time to establish healthy new routines and eating habits to ensure that the whole family are fit, healthy and eating the right food to provide the nutrition you all need.

I have always been a stress/binge eater. Being in a difficult first marriage, having a challenging toddler and suffering from post natal depression with my second baby, I had plenty of stressful emotions to deal with during the early years when my weight problems began.
The principle motive for me wanting to lose weight is my son Adrian, who suffers from Cerebral Palsy. He only has us, his mum and dad, and therefore I wanted to lose weight in order to be able to care for him.
It’s 6am and I am up with my mug of black coffee and start by having a few quiet minutes checking my email account and my Messenger. If it is a matter of a simple reply then I will do so there and then, otherwise I will leave it until the afternoon, which is my admin time.
