People stop dieting 10 days into the New Year
Having a hard time sticking to your New Year's resolution? Well you're not alone, as a new survey by Evian has found we find it difficult sticking to gruelling New Year resolutions.
We are taking on too much at New Year, making our resolutions impossible and that most people fall off the wagon by January 10th.
Over 63% of people admit to abandoning their resolutions in just under 10 days meaning that this year, Saturday will see a lot of the UK abandon their good intentions.
The results showed that Britons look to adopt on average 4 resolutions each New Year and, more often than not, these don't stick. 73% of Britons take on a New Year resolution. 56% take on more than 2 resolutions. Londoners give up their New Year’s resolutions more quickly than anyone else. 52% abandoned them within 5 days. 72% of people chose to take on a new dedication to be healthier in the New Year. 64% find it very hard to stick to their resolution
Evian spokesperson and expert nutritionist Nicki Waterman says, "it is so important at this time of year to adopt realistic and simple steps to change your lifestyle. Don't overwhelm yourself with new demanding activities or by cutting out too many things you love at once. Simple steps allow us to create long term habits that benefit our bodies, one of which being to make sure you are drinking enough water-drinking more water each day is a simple resolution you can easily stick too."
