It’s easy to spend five minutes on social media, looking at all those photographs of tanned muscular bodies and to instantly feel envious at how easy they make it all look. The truth is that losing weight is tough. Ever notice the moment you decide to cut out the sweets and fatty foods they are everywhere? Suddenly there’s more cakes in the office than staff, every social event revolves around eating, and you find yourself staring longingly at the extra’s fry ups in the café of EastEnders.

Many people seem partial to a mince pie or seventeen, which goes some way to explaining why (it’s predicted) Brits will pile on a massive 20 millionstone (more than a lb each) between December 25 and January 1 this year. And yet, there are also lots of people who wish they could eat what they want but not begin January far heavier than they began December. Cue MODIUS... a NEW health-tech wearable weight loss device here to STOP the natio piling on the pounds this Christmas and then having to loosen their work belts a notch (or three) in January.
