Distract yourself

Emma said that enjoying a new hobby, exercise or time with friends “will help you keep your mind off food”.

Cut down on alcohol

This is the number one tip for any diet as alcohol is a major cause of weight gain.

Emma said: “Not only is it calorific, it also makes you feel hungry and because your body burns alcohol off first, it can stop your body burning off the food you have eaten.”

Cut your portion sizes

Another way to speed up the weight loss process is to “stop eating when you feel full”.

A good hack is using smaller bowls and plates to help you avoid dishing out too much food.
