In Suzanne Harwood\u2019s case a simple bike ride with her children worked.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, Suzanne lost a massive 4 stone in just 4 months. She told local reporters: \u201cI\u2019ve always liked my food but my mum stopped me from over-eating. Once I left home I had what I wanted, and every <a href=\"https:\/\/www.medic8.com\/healthguide\/pregnancyindex.htm\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"63\" title=\"pregnancy\">pregnancy<\/a> added to the problem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added: \u201cThen I got pregnant again and I used that as an excuse. I quickly got into really bad eating habits and over the next four years put on all the weight I\u2019d lost and more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Suzanne recalls however that she became obsessed with losing weight by exercising after she went on a <em>Center Parcs<\/em> holiday with her family. These themed holiday parks cater for people who enjoy outdoor activities including bike riding.<\/p>\n<p>Initially, Suzanne struggled to keep up with her husband and children, but eventually found that the riding was helping her. Hence, over the following 4 months up to the run up to Christmas, she continued riding as well as signing up to the LighterLife programme in Sheffield.<\/p>\n<p>Suzanne continued: \u201cLosing the weight is actually the easy part \u2013 it\u2019s afterwards when it gets tricky and I learnt that lesson the hard way. I know my triggers now and the fact that I struggle to control my urges.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve had all three children\u2019s birthdays this month and I\u2019ve had cake, but I\u2019ve compensated by sticking to healthy eating the rest of the time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Obesity in the UK is a growing problem, and while politicians and medical people argue as to its cause, one thing is clear it can be a major problem for the individuals concerned.
