	How to stick to your diet
	7:53am Tue 1 Jan 08
	If you're one of those people who starts a diet every January, you'll be alarmed to learn you could spend more than £150,000 in your lifetime trying to lose weight. A recent poll found that, pound-for-pound, those who splash out in the new year on gym membership, diet DVDs, fitness equipment, new trainers and food supplements, spend an average £807 for every pound they lose. What's more, the average woman who tries to slim loses a maximum of 3lbs in any one year, most of which she puts back on. So instead of shedding the wrong kind of pounds in 2008, make a simple healthy diet stick by working out a problem-solving strategy before you start. Judith Wills, author of best-seller The Diet Bible, which has just been revised for 2008, has practical advice for staying low-calorie: Q: WHAT IS THE MOST RELIABLE AND EASY WAY TO SLIM AND MAINTAIN WEIGHT LOSS? A: A reduced-fat, low-sugar, natural diet low on highly-processed foods, such as a Mediterranean diet or a low-GI diet, is the easiest and most reliable way to get and stay slim that is also nutritionally sound and healthy. The World Health Organisation agrees on this, and much recent research agrees. You need to take regular exercise too. All studies show that people most successful at keeping weight off are those who do.
