The first Tuesday in May is best date to start a diet.
The date on which you start anything is absolutely essential?and diets are no exception. With 13 million people in the UK trying to lose weight, many are doomed to failure even before they get past the first rice cake, but it is the date on which you start that could be the difference between winning and losing.
According to information from Bodyidplan.com, the company behind a new weight loss product, the best date to start a diet, and make it work is the first Tuesday in May, this year Tuesday, May 6th 2008. So if you?re the type who flits from diet to diet, or are part of the 20% of the population permanently on a weight loss crusade, then it may be time to pencil in the first Tuesday in May, and give yourself the best chance of shaping up.
Why the first in Tuesday May?
? Research shows that people are most productive on a Tuesday. Certain traditions governing millions of people pinpoint this day as the best to ?remove obstacles?.
? We spend more ?me? time on a Tuesday because family, weekends and work commitments tend to occupy our thoughts the rest of the week.
? From the middle ages, Tuesday has always been the day to confess and start afresh.
? The transition from winter clothes to summer outfits begins and with it the hope of changing our shape to adapt to the attire.
? Summer begins in May and we lose more weight naturally in summer than during any other month.
Nutritionist Sheila Boyde says: ?Evidence shows that our ?happy hormone?, serotonin, increases during the longer and lighter days of summer. This is the time to capitalise on increased feelings of wellbeing and energy to begin your personalised diet plan.
Healthy salads and vegetables are plentiful at this time and make lighter foods more appealing with the warmer weather. There is also more incentive to exercise after work with the lighter nights encouraging you to venture forth out of the house.?
