Spring into action and shed that Winter weight!


The weather may still be chilly, but there is no doubt that fashion is hotting up ready for Spring. While it is exciting to see new trends and brighter colours bringing a ray of sunshine into the dreary knitwear laden shops, there is an element of dread that accompanies this time of year...

As the hemlines get shorter and we can no longer hide under a chunky knit, the extra pounds around our waistlines that did such a good job of keeping us warm in the winter months begins to play on our minds! January diets are long forgotten and the very real danger of sleeveless tops is looming just around the corner...

But don't panic! There is still time!  

As any personal trainer or health professional will tell you, it is best to make small changes to your everyday routine - that will eventually add up to big changes in your health (and your waistline!)

Change just one thing every day- Try to increase your number of steps per day; park further away from your office, walk your kids to school or get off the bus a stop earlier. Taking the stairs instead of the elevator or lift will make a big difference too!

If you need a bit more motivation to keep track of all of the positive changes that you are making, perhaps you should consider investing in a health tracker such as the Fitbit Ultra WirelessTracker.


The Fitbit Ultra monitors your activity all day to provide you with real-time feedback on steps, distance, calories burned, and stairs climbed to encourage you to walk more and be more active. It wirelessly uploads your data to Fitbit.com, using your smartphone or tablet, so you can gain deeper insight into your daily or monthly fitness and sleep levels with free online graphs and charts. On Fitbit.com, you can earn fitness badges, connect with friends to share and compete on fitness goals, or join the Fitbit community for advice and encouragement. So you can get fitter and slimmer- one step at a time!
