1. Go Food Tasting

This might sound like an odd option for those on a diet, but eating different foods will help you feel less deprived, and a lot of choices are surprisingly low calorie! For example, there are only 83 calories in 3oz of lobster, and 60 calories in 12 large shrimp. Food tasting is always brilliant fun, too.

  • Oh, challenges can be so motivating, right? You can organise a step challenge where you see who logs the most steps in a week or maybe a cooking challenge where you all cook a healthy dish each week. It's loads of fun when you add a little friendly competition!

  • It's all about finding activities you love! Dancing is an absolute blast and burns, like, a ton of calories. Or maybe go for a hike with your friends. If you're into games, try joining a social sports team. Just jam it up with something that's fun for you!

  • Sure! First, try making meals more colorful and explorative. Get creative with recipes and ingredients. Also, sharing meals with friends or having a little cook-off can make the whole healthy-eating scene so much more exciting!

  • Ooh, I love this idea: make a shared progress chart! It could be a simple poster or even a group app where you each log your progress and celebrate milestones together. High-fives for every win, big or small!

  • Absolutely! How about arranging a group Zumba or yoga session? Rollerblading through a park or organizing a cycling tour can also be insanely fun. Remember, the goal is to have fun and the weight loss is a bonus!

2. Plan a Pedometer Contest

Buy a pedometer, and see who can record the most steps. You’d be surprised how motivating having healthy competition can be, and anything that gets you walking instead of jumping in the lift is always a benefit!

3. Clean Your Closet

Take out all of your ‘fat’ clothes, and give them to friends or charity. The idea of having to buy a whole new wardrobe if you gain weight should be enough to put you off that last biscuit, and clothes swapping is always a laugh.

4. Dance!

Turn up the stereo and dance around the room. Not only is this abrilliant way to learn new dance moves and hear your friends favourite songs, you’ll also burn calories too! If you’re too embarrassed to dance at home, plan a night out to hit the dance floor.

5. Watch a Funny Film

Laughing is another excellent way to burn calories, so grab some comedy DVDs and cheer yourself up while making yourself slim!

7. Go Bowling

This will distract you from food, boredom and loneliness, which can all make you eat, will burn calories and tone you at the same time. And if you go off peak, it can be very cheap too!

8. Do Some Housework

Wash the car, do some gardening or shovel the snow while having a gossip. You won’t feel the workout while you are hearing what your next door neighbour has been up too, but you’ll be burning calories and toning too.

9. Join a Swimming Club

Meet once or twice a week outside the pool, and do a few laps. You are less likely to give up if you are doing it with a friend, and swimming is one of the best ways of toning up and looking great.

10. Do Some Kissing

Have a romantic night in with your partner. While he isn’t strictly speaking a friend, passionate kissing can burn hundreds of calories alone, and having your heart beat faster burns even more...

So now you’ve seen how easy it is, grab some friends and lose those final few pounds together. You’ll look great, have new hobbies and new friends, and be full of confidence!

I only have one question... for bowling, there is tons of fries and junk food around, how would that help?

I like the 3rd ideea of giving "fat" clothes to charity:). But it happened to me one to many times so ....I would have to buy new wardrobe everytime I get fat:)

Rollerblading is another excellent activity! Or how about a Zumba class? That is such a fun activity and it really has a party environment feel to it.
