10 reasons why you’re piling on the pounds

"No pain, no gain is no myth," says diet and fitness guru Laura Williams at laurawilliamsonline.co.uk. "Stressing the body – through exercise, not a hedonistic lifestyle – is essential to progressing your fitness and improving muscle tone. You need to keep adjusting the frequency of your workouts, the time you spend in the gym, the type of exercise you do and the intensity at which you work out."

Low energy? The answer, says Laura Williams, is a lunchtime workout. "Exercise improves your circulation and boosts oxygen delivery", she says, "so as a result, you've got more energy and alertness for the afternoon. If you restrict sleepy carbs like bread and pasta to the evening and stick to wide-awake protein at lunch, you can probably forgo your mid-afternoon caffeine hit."
