12 tips to help you lose weight
Healthy weight
Get off to the best possible start on the NHS weight loss plan with
these 12 diet and exercise tips.
1. Do not skip breakfast
Skipping breakfast will not help you lose weight. You could miss out
on essential nutrients and you may end up snacking more throughout
the day because you feel hungry.
Check out healthy breakfast recipes
2. Eat regular meals
Eating at regular times during the day helps burn calories at a faster
rate. It also reduces the temptation to snack on foods high in fat and
sugar.
Find out more about eating heathily
3. Eat plenty of fruit and veg
Fruit and veg are low in calories and fat, and high in fibre – 3 essential
ingredients for successful weight loss. They also contain plenty of
vitamins and minerals.

4. Get more active

You and your weight Weight loss support Safe weight gain
Being active is key to losing weight and keeping it off. As well as
providing lots of health benefits, exercise can help burn off the excess
calories you cannot lose through diet alone.
Find an activity you enjoy and are able to fit into your routine.
5. Drink plenty of water
People sometimes confuse thirst with hunger. You can end up
consuming extra calories when a glass of water is really what you
need.
Read more about drinking water as part of a heathly diet
6. Eat high fibre foods
Foods containing lots of fibre can help keep you feeling full, which is
perfect for losing weight. Fibre is only found in food from plants, such
as fruit and veg, oats, wholegrain bread, brown rice and pasta, and
beans, peas and lentils.
7. Read food labels
Knowing how to read food labels can help you choose healthier
options. Use the calorie information to work out how a particular
food fits into your daily calorie allowance on the weight loss plan.
Find out more about reading food labels
8. Use a smaller plate
Using smaller plates can help you eat smaller portions. By using
smaller plates and bowls, you may be able to gradually get used to
eating smaller portions without going hungry. It takes about 20
minutes for the stomach to tell the brain it's full, so eat slowly and stop
eating before you feel full.
9. Do not ban foods
Do not ban any foods from your weight loss plan, especially the ones
you like. Banning foods will only make you crave them more. There's
no reason you cannot enjoy the occasional treat as long as you stay
within your daily calorie allowance.
10. Do not stock junk food
To avoid temptation, do not stock junk food – such as chocolate,
biscuits, crisps and sweet fizzy drinks – at home. Instead, opt for
healthy snacks, such as fruit, unsalted rice cakes, oat cakes, unsalted or
unsweetened popcorn, and fruit juice.
11. Cut down on alcohol
A standard glass of wine can contain as many calories as a piece of
chocolate. Over time, drinking too much can easily contribute to
weight gain.
Find out more about the calories in alcohol
12. Plan your meals
Try to plan your breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks for the week,
making sure you stick to your calorie allowance. You may find it
helpful to make a weekly shopping list.
