Giving something up or given up?

It’ll soon be New Year, a time when people can be overheard saying they want to turn over a new leaf, start from scratch or simply be a little better/fitter/nicer than the year before, but in giving up one bad habit are you unconsciously starting another?

A Bach Original Flower Remedies survey has revealed that of those who give something up for New Year, 38% of people give up smoking and as a result of giving up their vice, 61% began comfort eating as a result .
