Happy 2022! Where did the last year go?

I encountered some unexpected bumps in the road last year which meant putting things on hold (I’m sure I’m not alone as it was another challenging year). But whilst I get myself back on track, keep your eyes open for some new developments in the coming months.

In the meantime, if you are struggling with the thought of yet another New Years diet and don’t know where to start, I have a couple of free consultations available in January.

Finally, my 3 top tips for the new year:
Don’t compare yourself to others, this is your journey not theirs.
Work through some realistic and achievable goals to motivate you (small steps).
Don’t beat yourself with a stick if things don’t go to plan, review your plan and learn from it.

Happy New Year.

Spring is finally here! 🎉 lighter evenings, the end of lockdown in sight and the chance to start reconnecting with friends and family.

How has the last lockdown been for you? With the winter and dark evenings I think it was harder this time to stay on track with good eating habits. Did the New Years resolutions stick?

With gatherings, holidays and summer wardrobes in sight, are you wanting to make positive changes to feel happier and healthier as we emerge from our hibernation? I can help you loose the pounds gained without deprivation or cutting out whole food groups. I will work with you 1:1 to help you take back control and find a way to eat that fits in with your personal goals and circumstances. Get in touch for a free consultation and review.

Happy Spring! 🌼

This article may be about Christmas (which is a bit late , or early 😂) but the principles and theories are spot on....don’t deprive yourself, don’t attempt all or nothing, and don’t exercise just to burn calories. None of these methods work well. For more information, please message me about how to implement some of the changes you can make now...no need to wait until an arbitrary milestone

Exercise is so beneficial, mentally as well as physically, especially at the moment.

It’s not a punishment for something you ate, but something that can be enjoyable and help you through different times. It doesn’t have to be running a marathon, it can be a walk , gentle stretching or dancing round the kitchen to your favourite song...just find something that you enjoy

This kind of planner (any kind) is perfect to help visualise your goals and plan your weeks, small steps = big achievements.

Heard this one? It’s one of my biggest pet hates.

Yes eating less and exercising more could help if it creates a calorie deficit, but it’s not a long term solution, and it will likely make you feel miserable.

In actual fact you need to eat more, yes! More food, but the right choices, and an understanding of how you can create good habits and maintain an enjoyable life whilst still loosing weight.
