Our New Year fitness overhaul may need a little revitalisation as we head in the latter end of the month.
We bring your the latest products that will help to change the shape of your body and motivate you more to carry on with the progress you've already made.
Remember, the small changes can make a big difference in the long run. Just because you don't wake up looking like Elle Macpherson doesn't mean that it's not working.
These best buys will give you a little bit of encouragement and will cheer you up.
Zaggora HotPants aim to visibly reduce the appearance of cellulite and increase weightloss. The best thing is when you put them on, you can feel them working. Taking, or should I say peeling, them off after a workout is a hard task, but you can feel the work that they've done and it instantly motivates you to carry on. Sweat away that cellulite. The average results have shown weight loss of 10-12lbs over the course of two weeks - amazing I know. Once you've worn the HotPants for a workout it's hard to not want to wear them every single time you do, so I would suggest treating yourself to two pairs, then you can constantly be wearing them whilst walking, running or to the gym. You won't want to be parted from them once you've had a go, trust me. (Availble from zaggora.com, RRP £44.99)
Cooking with a George Foreman Grill reduces the fat content in some foods by an amazing 42per cent. It's no surprise that it's the UK's number one health grill and to celebrate its ten year anniversary, they have the brand new 10 Portion health Grill. In a sleek new design, the Grill looks impressive and stylish. Its performance, versatility and cost benefits are as impressive. The Grill is all about great tasting food in a matter of minutes. Cook from fresh or frozen and with a variety of ingredients; meat, fish and vegetables are all grill friendly. (Available from georgeforman.co.uk)
The Yantra Mat is a foam mat covered in spiked 'flowers' with 8,820 contact points designed to stimulate special 'acupoints' on the body through acupressure. The user is advised to lay down on the mat for around 20 minutes a day and in a response to the pressure the body's natural 'painkilling' hormones 'endorphins' and 'oxytocin' are released, which both promote relaxation and reduce stress levels. Applying pressure to various points on the body increases blood circulation to enable the body to achieve a deeper state of relaxtion. (Available from Holland & Baraett, all good pharmacies and direct from Lifes2good or yantramat.co.uk, RRP £39.90)
New alli chewable tablets are now available for overweight adults with a BMI of 28 or more and can help to boost weightloss compared with dieting alone. alli should be used with a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet and blocks about 25 per cent of the fat that you eat from being absorbed. For every 2lb you work to lost, adding alli can help you lose 1lb more. The chewable tablets are discreet, pleasant tasting and easy to take. (Available in pharmacies)

These leggings mean that you'll be lsoign inches as you go about your day-to-day activities. The Lytess slimming range has a unique formula of active ingredients woven into the fibre of the fabric, stimulating the breakdown of fat. Trials have show that they can help you to lose 3.1cm on the thighs and 5.5cm on the hips. They are just as comfortable as any other pair of leggings you wear, meaning that they can be worn during the day, during a workout or even when you sleep at night.

Shock Absorber bras are the ulitmate workout must have. They have the new red, white and blue colourway for the new season and whilst you may think they are a little bright, you forget about it once it's on and you can feel your breasts being supported by a good product. Chose the right one for you workout, whether it's the Shock Absorber Run Bra, which reduces bounce by up to 78 per cent or the Max Support Bra Top, the popular crop top design with internal cup-sized support for maximum bounce control. So, get patriotic and support your country in the Olympics and your breasts during your workout.
Finally, whilst this may not be a fitness product as such, it's a little treat after the workout to help encourage us to go back the next time. Lambrini Light is a great alternative to a glass of wine at only 40 calories per glass. It also has a reduced alcohol by volume of 5.5 per cent - so it reduces alcohol and calorie intake. Perfect for the New Year. (Available from major supermarkets, £2.49)
