As the year draws to a close, you might be starting to think about your resolutions for the New Year. Some aim to save a certain amount of money, and some may decide to launch their business. But for a lot of people, getting in shape or losing extra weight is at the forefront of their mind.
If losing weight is one of your resolutions, you might be wondering what kind of route to take. With so many diet plans and ways of reducing your body mass, it can be difficult to know which one will help you achieve your goal. It’s important to understand that to lose weight and successfully keep it off, you will need to permanently change your lifestyle. It's a not a quick fix. Exercise, regular daily movement, nutrition, you have to take everything into consideration. But when it comes to the 'diet aspect' and it's something you struggle with and get bored of quickly, here are some things people utilise to help them stay on track.

Meal replacements
If you struggle to get in all of the nutrients your body needs every day, then meal replacements should be something to consider. Not only that, but meal replacement shakes are a great way to help you control the number of calories you’re consuming without having to constantly think about it and calculate numbers all day. Don’t worry, this doesn’t mean you won’t be eating at all; it simply means that you’ll replace one of your meals to help get in those nutrients and help prevent overeating or eating too little. Another great thing about replacement meals is that you can have it tailored to your needs. So, if your potassium is notoriously low, you can have this added to your shakes to get exactly what your body needs.
Hypnosis
This fairly new and interesting way of losing weight seems to be taking the world by storm. It works by reprogramming your brain and how it sees food. Things like drinking a glass of water before eating to differentiate whether you’re hungry or thirsty, and serving your meals on smaller plates are all things the hypnosis will have you trying.
Quite often, weight loss hypnosis will involve you listening to a pre recorded audio while lying down in a comfortable position. It’s not uncommon for people to fall asleep to these hypnosis tapes, and many consumers have said they don’t remember hearing the whole tape. That’s absolutely fine - your subconscious did.
Of course, there are a lot of sceptics surrounding this method, but millions of people have seen success, so perhaps it’s worth a try? It's very intriguing.
Liquid 'detoxing'
Finally, another way to help kick start your weight loss journey is by using the liquid detox method. Over years of overindulging and eating a little too much, your stomach stretches out a lot, which means it now takes longer for you to feel full.
A great way to ‘reset’ the body is by doing a liquid detox for a week or two before implementing a healthy lifestyle. This will involve a lot of fasting, but it can help flush out any toxins, kick start your weight loss with and serve as a great way to leave behind any old bad habits.
