When we carry extra weight, we often want to reach a weight at which we feel more comfortable, so we can feel better in our own skin and embrace our bodies. Weight goals are personal, and they are often about how comfortable you feel day to day. Sleep, quality of life and mood: here’s a look at these everyday topics, along with our tips for getting started gently.
Weight and sleep
A good night’s sleep is essential for feeling your best every day. If you have any concerns about your sleep, speak to your doctor. When you sleep poorly, you’re often more likely to crave snacks throughout the day, struggle to concentrate and feel more irritable — in short, to have a rough day all round!
Weight and quality of life
When you’re carrying excess weight, many everyday activities can quickly become a challenge: playing with the kids, enjoying a walk in nature, cycling to work or putting on a swimsuit… Everyone’s goals are personal, so think about the activities that matter most to you and move forward at your own pace.
Weight and mood
How we feel about our bodies can sometimes affect our mood and self-confidence, and this varies from person to person. Be kind to yourself and focus on goals that feel right for you.

Weight and overall health
Weight is one of the markers medical professionals consider when assessing your overall condition. Your doctor is best placed to explain what your weight may mean for you personally. Every situation is different, and only a medical professional can provide a personalised assessment. Everyone is different, so it’s worth building habits that suit you, such as a varied diet and regular physical activity, at your own pace. If you have any questions about your personal situation, ask your doctor for advice.
How can you get started gently?
If you’re carrying extra weight and would like to lose some, we recommend starting with gentle forms of exercise that won’t put too much strain on your muscles and joints — such as swimming, cycling or Pilates.
It’s also important to rebalance your diet by cutting back on foods that are too fatty, too sugary, or too salty.
To pamper your body along the way, why not build a daily body-care routine with wraps, massagers, creams or gels?
