Diet Tips

A new feature of the web site we will be posting weekly diet tips. So keep your eyes peeled on the gym page to keep up to date with tips and advice on your diet.

Week 1 – Drink plenty of water sometimes as your body confuses thirst with hunger.Ice cold water will speed up your metabolism and keep you hydrated ensuring you get more out of your workouts.

Week 2 - Spice it up. By adding spices or chillies to your meals you can speed up your metabolism. More flavourful food can also leave you feeling more satisfied with your smaller meal.

Week 3- Never shop when hungry. Shopping when hungry can lead to impulse buying all the wrong foods. Try to keep hunger at bay when you do your weekly shop and you will be able to resist the high calorie treats.

Week 4- Eat protein at every meal. Diets higher in protein and moderate in carbohydrates, along with an active lifestyle have excellent potential to help weight loss.

Week 5 – Order children’s portions in restaurants. When eating out order a child’s meal or a small sandwich as an easy way to trim calories and get portion sizes under control
