Tips to help minimise weight loss in 2018

It's a new year (2018) with new insights, hopes, plans and visions. Most or some people make new year resolutions to walk/work with, here are a few tips to minimise weight loss in the new year.
1. Weigh regularly: Weight loss may be easy to miss "Weigh yourself once a week on the same scales at the same time. If you are starting to regain 500g/1lb a week you are on the right track,".
2. Mini meals: Mini meals are often more appealing if your appetite is low. Three meals and 3 snacks a day would be ideal. Eat whenever you feel even a tiny bit peckish.
3. No hassle eating: Try to take the hassle out of eating. Have meals that are quick and easy to prepare with as little effort as possible.
4. Accept help: If family, friends and neighbours have offered to help you, accept it.  People can feel helpless if their loved ones are ill or unable to leave their home, so letting them give you a hand works for both of you.
5. Cram in the calories: When you are losing weight you need to get the calories where you can, even if it's from foods that may usually be limited in a healthy, balanced diet.
6. Drink right: Don't drink with meals as liquids will fill you up and make you less likely to take in calories from food.
7. Comfort eat: When you are not really hungry your favourite chocolate bar or takeaway burger may just tempt you.
8. Don't go low-fat: Avoid low-fat, diet or reduced calorie versions of any foods or drink.
9. Kick-start your appetite: When food isn't attractive try taking a short walk or some other physical exercise, if you can manage it, to try to stimulate your appetite.
10. See an expert: If you are still finding it difficult to put on weight seek medical advice (local dietician).
