New Year, New You, New Body

ByClaire L Andrews

It is January which means many things. Resolutions, diets, gym memberships, sales, lifestyle makeovers and empty bank accounts. Of course the most common one is the weight loss plan. Almost everyone seems to take up some sort of method to lose that excess weight they have gained over the Christmas period. Whether it is a diet or new exercise regime, a lot of New Year resolutions are linked to shedding the pounds. Some use this time to make a fresh start and begin their mission to lose the weight they have been longing to say goodbye to. Some use it as a new start to take up the gym and begin getting fit again, but why do we wait until the start of the Year? What is it that stops us from doing it at any other time of the year?

If we really wanted to shed the stones we would not use the beginning of January as an excuse to start a fresh. We would do it right there and then. Many see that trying to be good over the festive season is a hard task and leave it until the start of the year to begin their efforts. A lot of those will take up gym memberships, go on a special diet or join a slimming group for some extra support. There are plenty of ways out there that have been designed to help us lose unwanted pounds and keep them off forever.

In the month of January we are surrounded by offers of cheap gym memberships, deals on weight loss classes, supermarkets cutting the cost of healthy foods and countless weight loss TV programmes being shown in order to inspire us to get fit and revitalised. It does work as a lot of us will get into the spirit of the occasion and vow to lose weight and start the 'new you' process, but others will shrug it off and carry on with their unhealthy lifestyles.

Unfortunately a lot of those who start off the year with good intentions end up failing miserably in their efforts to lose weight. By February junk food is back in full swing and the sofa beckons due to complete lack of motivation. Unfortunately, the pounds will not shift themselves. By this time most have forgotten about their resolution to get thin and have reverted back to a lazy and unhealthy lifestyle.

The key to losing that excess weight is to eat healthy and take part in an amount of exercise you find comfortable which in turn will result in a brand new you whether it is a New Year or not.
