17 Weight Loss Success Tips for You to be Ready for Summer

To get you inspired to be Summer Ready we would like to share these great tips from our clients on how to lose weight and keep it off.

1. “Setting alarms for snacks means I get the right amount of protein each day. Weekly meals are planned around my upcoming schedule for the week. All planned exercise is added to my phone calendar.” – Tania C
2. “Keep your sense of humour. I enjoy the excellent recipes and it has taught me to cook and eat healthier. Be confident and push yourself a bit and keep your sense of humour.” – Chrissy 
3. “Stick to the food plan and don’t think of it as a diet but a lifestyle change. It’s about being a healthier and happier version of yourself.” – Sally F
4. “Preparation is the key. Preparation for the program can be quick and as simple as you need it to be, but preparation is the key to being successful.” – Jodie
5. “Commit to the weekly educational updates. The weekly educational updates have enabled me to change eating habits, engage in regular and consistent exercise and take control of my life at a time I felt it was out of control.” – Peta
6. “Use photos. Losing 15kg my dress size has gone from a size 16 to a size 12. I have lost a total of 22cm from my waist. My blood tests show that I am no longer diabetic, and I can look at myself in photos and feel proud of what I have become.” – Karen
7. “Don’t think you need to eat less. Get past thinking that you need to eat less if you want to lose weight. Usually the reverse is true, as long as you eat the right foods. Be realistic about how long it may take and make the most of the coaching sessions and being honest about any slip-ups, so your coach can help you develop strategies.” – Meryl
8. “Set realistic goals – these can be changed as you go along. You may find that you don’t need to lose as much weight as you thought to fit into that LBD! Remember that it took time to put on the weight, it will take time for it to come off too.” – Mary
9. “Soups are your best friend. Lisa says, soups are my best friend to use as a base and add: Fried onion, mushrooms and ham, or chicken, olives and pasta sauce, or a can of chilli tuna and sour cream, or cheese and parsley, or lamb, mint and sour cream.”
10. “Make a double batch. I’m organised when preparing some of the delicious recipes and make a double batch and freeze. They’re great to take to work for lunches.” – Elaine
11. “Take small steps. Don’t think big picture. Keep positive and believe in yourself. Enjoy the journey. Mindset is the most important part of the program for me. It keeps my head in the game plus extra encouragement if I’m feeling slightly lost.” – Nat
12. “Plan your week ahead. Keep filling out your Daily Planner, it may seem like a chore at first, but is helpful to keep you on track and motivated. Push yourself and notice the difference in your self – body, mind and relationships.” – Becky
13. “Put yourself first. After putting myself last for a long time I now place more importance on mindful eating, increasing my physical activity and creating healthy options including getting a good night’s sleep! I have seen immediate and wonderful benefits with this and feel that I am working on these habits for the long-term not just a “quick fix” like I have done previously.” – Sarah
14. “Be open-minded. It’s great to have a range of recipes that I once would not have tried, and my new habit of pre-planning most meals makes dinner time so easy. Ask questions and be open-minded to try new things. Have a good support network with family and friends, and don’t listen to negativity.” – Robyn
15. “Mindful eating. Learn to be mindful while eating, sit and enjoy your meal.” – Jodie
16. “Food is not the enemy. This program has taught me so much about my body and the food I choose to put into it, that I no longer view either as my enemy.” – Loretta
17. “Make a decision. I made the decision to not let anything get in the way of my goals no matter how bad things are: never give up.” – Natasha
