Lose weight, keep it off and feel great!

With the nation getting ever fatter and the burden this will have on our health and economy, the government and health care professionals alike are urging us to lose weight and become more active. But there are so many different diet books and weight loss programmes on the market and so much conflicting information in the press that it can sometimes be quite confusing about what to do.

From an evolutional perspective humans are designed to be lean, muscular and highly active. Just look at animals in their natural environment where there is no human interaction – you very rarely see overweight animals (except those that store fat before hibernation) and you never see obese animals.
