It's often the most simple changes that make the difference. I always encourage people to make small changes that they can stick with, rather than trying to change everything at once. Trying to change too many things usually ends up being totally demoralising, as you can't stick with it, and people end up feeling like they've failed. Keep up the good work, God answers prayer! Ruth,

Do you find this difficult?

We take turns spending 30 to 60 minutes preparing dinner for us and our two children. For us, the key is a sensible eating plan we can stick to indefinitely. We cook food we enjoy eating. We serve balanced meals. We eat in moderation. We use measuring cups to help us get "balance" and "moderation" right. Some things, we have learned to measure by eye. And we exercise regularly. Well, at least one of us does. As for expensive high-protein meal replacements -- why not replace them with hard-boiled eggs?

Yes I totally agree, often people believe a diet must be OTT before it is plausible..seems completely contrary to me! Hi Richard – thanks for your comments.

People often forget that in order to lose weight all they need to do is burn more calories than they consume. Some diets help do this but often are not sustainable. Your advice is spot on. Not overly glamorous and what people want to hear but stick to it and you will be more successful than fad diets. Some great advice.
