Water? Weight loss? 💧
Drinking water can be beneficial for weight loss in several ways:
Reduces calorie intake:
Drinking water before meals can make you feel fuller and reduce your overall calorie intake, which can lead to weight loss.
Boosts metabolism:
Drinking water can increase your metabolism, which can help you burn more calories throughout the day.
Replaces high-calorie beverages:
Drinking water instead of high-calorie beverages like sugary drinks or alcohol can help you reduce your overall calorie intake.
Helps with digestion:
Drinking water can aid in digestion and prevent constipation, which can help you feel lighter and more comfortable.
However, it is important to note that water alone is not a magic solution for weight loss. It is still important to maintain a healthy diet and engage in regular physical activity to achieve sustainable weight loss.

If you do a bit of exercise, sniff peppermint! 🌿
The scent changes how hard you feel you’re working, making it seem less difficult, so you can push yourself that bit further. 🌿
The Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition’s report '
“External application of peppermint extract raised the pain threshold in human. Peppermint aroma was also effective on perceived physical workload, temporal workload, effort, and anxiety.
Another research demonstrated the effectiveness of peppermint aroma administered through the nose or by mouth on the augmenting cognitive performance. Peppermint aroma caused improvement on the tasks related to attentional processes, virtual recognition memory, working memory, and visual-motor response.”🌿
And researchers found that it really didn’t matter how you got that mint smell – a couple of drops of essential peppermint oil on pulse points, a couple in your water bottle, a cup of peppermint tea before you start or cold peppermint tea.🌿
Interesting stuff from

How much will The 1:1 Diet cost me? 💰
💴 We know “How much does The 1:1 Diet cost?”, “What’s the Cambridge diet cost?” and “Is there a price for The 1:1 Diet by Cambridge Weight Plan?” are questions people search when thinking about going on Plan.
Well, look no further, here’s where you can find the answer!
Prices vary from Consultant to Consultant, but on average, you’ll only pay around £2.61 for a meal. Weekly, you can expect to pay around £54.85 based on 3 meals a day and your weekly one-to-one consultation
If you buy a fancy coffee from a shop or petrol station for around £2.50, instead you can purchase our scrummy The 1:1 Diet Cappuccino Shake, it's so much better for you and tastes amazing!
You might also spend around £60 on your weekly shop, that's potentially more than you'll pay for a week on Plan, plus depending on what Step you're on, you don't have to worry about going food shopping - bonus!
Also, how many times do you treat yourself to a takeaway each month?
On average it tends to be around £75, that's over a week on Plan (and a lot less temptation!)
The 1:1 Diet Plan is cheaper and a whole lot better for you than bad food choices.
The products are super easy to grab and go (you don't need to be a whiz in the kitchen!) and you'll get your very own cheerer-onner to support you every step of the way too!
Stay home. Stay on plan.
Stay fabulous!

You know those times in life when things feel really tough?
You feel overwhelmed and alone, and you wonder whether or not you’re strong enough to handle it.
Maybe an issue at home is exhausting, a dynamic at work isn’t getting better, or you’re grieving the loss of someone dear.
Sometimes things just seem too much to handle.
If this is you, and you’re doubting your strength, you’re in the right place.
You were meant to hear this message today ❤️
You’re stronger than you think.
You’re more capable than you realise.
In my years of seeing clients, I’ve never once met someone who realised the full potential of their strength and resilience.
We always seem to doubt our strength, underestimating our resiliency and ability to make it through.
Strength doesn’t mean you’re not afraid. It doesn’t mean you have all the answers. It means you have the ability to keep going, putting one foot in front of the other, even when fear and doubt say you can’t.
Today, I want you to know that you’re stronger than you think. You’re more capable than you realise.
And in case you don’t believe me, check out the quotes below.
“You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”
Maya Angelou
“Daring greatly is being brave and afraid every minute of the day at the exact same time.”
Brene Brown
“Where there is no struggle, there is no strength.”
Oprah
“One small crack does not mean that you are broken. It means that you were put to the test and you didn’t fall apart.”
Linda Poindexter
“It’s important to remember that we all have magic inside of us.”
JK Rowling
“The hardest step she ever took was to blindly trust in who she was.”
Atticus
“What lies before us and what lies behind us are small matters compared to what lies within us. And when you bring what is within out into the world, miracles happen.”
Henry David Thoreau
If you’re ready to throw in the towel, unsure if you can handle what life is throwing your way, you can.
You’re stronger than you think. And I believe in you ✨

♥️ SUPPORT ♥️
Losing weight can be made a little easier when you have a slimming buddy whether it’s your best friend, a sibling, your partner, parents or your children. Some of our favourite connections are seeing people who have been supporting each other via social media become real life friends.
Whether you’re leaning on your buddies for moral support or you’re losing weight together with some good old fashion competition, slimming with someone else by your side can be a real motivator.
Studies have shown that losing weight with someone else means that you’re more likely to reach your goals. Your friends don’t even have to be following the same weight-loss journey as you, or even losing weight at all themselves, all that matters is knowing you have their support.
Do you have a weight-loss buddy?
Or have your friends been super supportive?
We’d love to hear your weight-loss friends’ stories, share in the comments below! 👇🏼

✨’Welcome’ or ‘Welcome Back Again’✨
Well done to you all for deciding that the food party has finally ended and now is the time to clean up the diet, by treating yourself to a nutritionally complete plan, that involves no junk or alcohol.
Remember just how good you feel after only 3-4 days back on plan?
If you’re struggling to get back in the zone, please remember that after just a few days of being 100% on plan, this is all it takes to get you knuckled down again. Keep trying, keep learning from previous mistakes and triggers, and then one day something just clicks and you say, “Enough, no more, I’m going to make this happen.”
And it’s down to you to make this happen, as no one can do this for you. So get out of your own way, as you can do this...
Despite your family driving you crazy
Despite falling out with a sibling
Despite work being stressful
Despite an unkind word from a colleague
Despite you feeling unwell
Despite a loved ones illness
Despite how a friend let you down
Despite an upcoming social event or weekend away
Despite who your consultant is
Despite trying and failing previously
You CAN do this...
It’s up to you to keep going, keep fighting, and keep prioritising that goal. No more “it’s because of them not me”. No more caving under peer pressure. No more not wanting to appear rude. No more excuses. Take responsibility. You are entirely up to you.
Life throws us curve balls all the time. It’s how we learn to react to them that matters. We can’t control life but we all know that eating our way through these situations with junk or drowning our sorrows ultimately just makes us feel worse. The 1:1 Diet helps put you back in control of food by balancing your blood sugars, and when you are in control of at least one thing, this enables us to handle these other life situations better.
My door is always open so welcome back weight loss warriors.
Lets do this...today, tomorrow...but either way remember you CAN do this. Your health is too important not too prioritise this x

Whatever has happened is done.
Whether your clean up operation starts on the 1st, 2nd or 4th, stop making it all or nothing. Eating doesn’t have to be that way. Make it about balance.
When I say balance, I don’t just mean food. Tackle those excess and unwanted KG’s with a holistic approach, so think about going back to the basics...
✨Sleep (7-8 hours)
✨Water (minimum 2.25 litres)
✨Movement (if not already exercising then start of with 15 mins of walking a day and build up)
✨Stress (what can you do to manage it and reduce it)
✨Sunlight (are you getting outside enough?)
Take it one meal at a time, focusing on the foods that make you feel good and that you’re not still wearing the next day.
You are truly beautiful and things will be just fine ❤️
✨✨✨✨✨✨

✨The Problem with Perfection✨
Why would you seek being perfect?
Usually, we strive toward being perfect to compensate for a sense of inadequacy. People who want to be perfect usually have an exaggerated sense of their own shortcomings. They typically received messages earlier in life that they weren't good enough.
In our culture, we move relentlessly toward greater emphasis on achievement and goal orientation. When we do so, we seem to lose the capacity for wonder and awe. Could you imagine looking at a magnificent rainbow and complaining that one of the colors wasn't perfect? Not only would that be ridiculous, but we'd also be ruining the splendor of the moment. And yet that is exactly what we do when we judge ourselves for our imperfections. We forget that as humans we're part of nature, as well. As such, we would benefit if we came into acceptance of the natural state of life, which by the way happens to be imperfect.
(Mel Schwartz L.C.S.W.

Embrace you as you are with all your perfect imperfections ❤️😘
