3. Drinks count too: 'We often forget that what we are drinking is just as important as our food diet. Cut out fizzy drinks, drink plenty of water and herbal teas. Remember, everything in moderation - even fruit juice contains lots of sugar.'
4. Have fun: 'Don't jeopardise your social life, remember you can still pick healthy options when eating out. A favourite of mine is the Arrosto salad at Prezzo, packed full of artichokes, sun dried tomatoes and chicken and do remember alcohol can heavily contribute to weight gain (this was one of my biggest downfalls when I was at my heaviest) and can have a detrimental affect on your skin, liver and overall health.'
5. Stay clear of saturated fat: 'Saturated fats are a tough one for us all. We love a croissant in the morning or cheese and crackers after dinner but these create the fatty pockets we all hate. Instead enjoy good fats in moderation and try switching your regular cooking oil for olive oil.'
6. Stay active: 'An active lifestyle will keep you in shape but even if you're busy and feel you don't have time for the gym, try home-work outs. I am a huge fan of these and there is so much you can do.'
