Today's news on the eating front...dieting is bad for you!
Of course the way the papers are reporting the news it sounds like losing weight is bad for you but of course that's just not true!
The newest research says that it's better to stay overweight than be constantly dieting - and of course, that may be true! Dieting is un-natural and most diets encourage us to eat in ways that simply aren't normal! Dieting is cutting out carbs or fat, eating cereal for lunch or living off soups and shakes.
So yes, staying overweight IS better than dieting! But eating healthily is still better than being overweight. Changing your weight and losing that excess fat through normal, healthy eating is the best and only way!
I work with my clients to help them eat normally. Three meals a day, healthy food. No diets, no feeling deprived and no unhappiness! Hypnotherapy can change the way you think about those foods (and drinks) you've been labelling as "treats". But they're not "treats" are they?
They're not "treats" because you're having them every day - lots of them. A "treat" is occasional, a special event.
They're not "treats" because they are actually making you fat and unhealthy - and unhappy!
So let me help you put the "treats" back into your life. Eat normally. Lose weight. Feel better!
Call me on 0113 380 1758 and I'll explain how easy it will be!

Who can Dukan? You can!
I thought I'd start by bringing you a media line on yet another new diet!
Of course you can Dukan - or du (!) any other diet but do really WANT to diet? Do you really want to have to remember to pack separate bags of oat bran, each with 2 tablespoons in, for your holidays? Oh, and don't forget the flavourings - "available from our website" to make your food taste better!
With Dukan you don't eat any vegetables or fruit for the "attack" phase - well I know what that will give you an attack of - do you?
How's this for a way of eating that you can do all the time, forever? Eat normally! Yes, how about eating 3 meals a day, occasional healthy snacks, plenty of healthy vitamin and mineral-laden foods and enough protein and carbs to keep you healthy and fit?
Wouldn't that be better than spooning oat bran into little bags?
If you need help to just eat normally and cut out the snacking and fattening extras then give me a call. I can help. You will lose weight but here's the difference. You'll keep it off because, as far as the eating habits are concerned, you'll keep it up!
To borrow another advertiser's favourite - Simple!

A rather personal discussion!
The last few months have been really hectic here at Break the Habit as more and more clients stop smoking, lose weight and remove their stress and phobias!
But just for a moment can I ask for your help?
If you're a guy could you please go somewhere private and check your privates? And if you're a woman can you get your guy to check asap?
The reason I'm asking this is because my husband had Testicular Cancer two years ago. He ignored the lump for a few months because he was "too busy" writing a new novel. Fortunately he didn't leave it too late. Within days of visiting our GP he was in hospital. He lost a testicle to cancer but that's all he lost. Our lives were turned upside down but he preserved the most important thing - his life!
Men seem to know more about checking women's breasts than they do about checking their own balls! Now is the time to stop being shy. Stop being scared. Check!
Steven's new novel - a "ballsy" action thriller is now out! In his introduction he writes his own story. £1 from every book sold - which is most of his own profit - will go to the Everyman Cancer campaign.
If you'd like a good read - or want a way to get your partner/husband/brother/son to check his balls then please buy a book! It's in Waterstones or online here http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/book/9780956591401/Now-the-Killing-Starts
If you want to read Steven's story there was a piece in the Yorkshire Post here
http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/lifestyle/the-arts/books/thriller_writer_s_real_life_drama_1_3346546
For more information on Testicular Cancer go to Everyman here http://www.everyman-campaign.org/
Don't leave it too late. Testicular cancer has a 97% survival rate if found early. But the incidence of this disease, the most common cancer in men aged 18 - 44, is rising. Look after yourselves!

Busy, busy ,busy
Busy people don't get time to blog - so I've been "tweeting" instead"
On 1st October I decided to do a daily tweet, a one step at a time to change your lifestyle.
What I good idea! Have you tried it?
Today start drinking more water.
Tomorrow drink more water and go for a five minute walk.
The next day (have you got it yet? :) yes! drink more water, go for a walk and smile!
The next day.... well you get the idea.
The way change is easy and effortless. And they say that if you do something for 21 days it becomes a habit.
So change one thing a day and by Christmas you'll be healthier!

3 easy ways to weight loss!
To lose weight you need to eat less and move more.
So that's easy....eat less than you did yesterday and move more than you did yesterday.
3 easy ways to eat less...
1. Don't have any fattening snack foods in your house!
So if you're wandering the kitchen looking to snack at 10pm tonight you'll have to have something healthy! Don't buy it - then you can't eat it!
2. Reduce by 10%
10% less sugar in your coffee, 10% less food on your plate, 10% less cereal in your breakfast bowl. You'll not miss 10% but over a week that's a lot of food!
3. Walk around the block
A five minute walk. A run up and down the stairs. If you work on the 4th floor walk up one floor and take the lift up the rest. Then the next day walk up two floors. Small bits of movement (let's not call it exercise, we don't want to frighten anyone!) all add up.
Is a five minute walk enough? Short term, yes! But at least it's more than you did yesterday!
Bonus!
4. If you must eat a burger only eat half the bread bun - it's not much, but it's better than nothing!
If you're ready to change your eating habits, once and for all, give me a call on 0113 380 1758.
Stop snacking - in one session! Lose 2 stone by Christmas! What are you waiting for?
