💌 Valentine’s Day reminder: love all foods.
Yes - all foods. There is really no such thing as “good” or “bad” foods.

And it’s not just other people saying it - it’s us too. “I shouldn’t eat this.” “This is naughty.” “I’ve messed up my day.” The thing is, when we label foods as bad, the moment we eat them, we feel like we have done something wrong… even though all we did was enjoy something we like.

Here’s the truth: it’s completely fine to have these foods now and then. You can enjoy them, savour them, and move on - without guilt or shame.

Food is meant to be enjoyed, not feared. With a bit of time and practice, you can:
🍰 Have one slice without finishing the whole thing
🍟 Enjoy snacks without beating yourself up
💖 Listen to your body and what it actually needs

Be gentle with yourself. Love your food. Love yourself. ❤️

🌟 Client Success Spotlight 🌟

This lovely client completed my 12-week online weight management programme, Freedom From Diets, and I am so proud of her progress!

When we started, she was:
• Focused mostly on the scale
• Having large portions
• Snacking at night out of boredom
• Doing little to no activity

👇🏽

Now she is:

⭐️ Building a healthier relationship with food and controlling portion sizes

⭐️ Enjoying meals at the table instead of in front of the TV

⭐️ Re-discovering hobbies like colouring to replace boredom night-time snacking

⭐️ Moving her body again - going back to dancing when working from home

⭐️ Confident enough to say, “I can now walk past the kitchen without having crisps!”

It is amazing to see how small, sustainable changes create big shifts in energy, confidence, and daily habits.

I can’t wait to continue supporting her on this journey!

Last night I ran a webinar on Mastering Protein on a Plant-Based Plate, and it was such a rewarding session!

Protein is discussed a lot online, but it’s not always easy to separate fact from fiction. It was great to provide practical, evidence-based guidance for anyone interested in plant-based nutrition.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined and asked such thoughtful questions during the Q&A. I loved hearing feedback like:

"Thank you very much for a very enjoyable and informative session, I have learnt a lot."

"Such a great webinar!"

"Thanks so much - it was a good session! Well put together as always."

It was wonderful to see some regular attendees again and especially lovely to welcome a completely new participant last night!

The next webinar is on 4th March: Navigating Emotional Eating. You can find more details and sign up here: https://sairanutrition.co.uk/workshops-webinars/navigating-emotional-eating

💡 Myth-Busting: “Fruit is too sugary!”

Fruit contains natural sugar, which is not the same as the free sugars found in chocolate, cakes, and biscuits - the ones we actually need to cut down on. 🍫

Fruit is packed with vitamins, minerals, and fibre, and eating a variety of fruit and veg is linked to a lower risk of heart disease, stroke and some cancers. ❤️🥦

Quick portion guide:

- Fresh, frozen or canned fruit: 80g (e.g., 1 medium sized apple, 10–12 grapes)

- Dried fruit: 30g - higher in sugar (e.g., 3 dried apricots)

- Juice/smoothies: 150ml (juicing releases sugars as free sugars and removes/destroys fibre)

✅ Tip: Whenever possible, choose whole fruit and aim for at least 5 portions of fruit and veg a day.

🎉 2 Years of Saira Nutrition! 🎉

I can hardly believe it has been 2 years since starting Saira Nutrition!

Balancing a part-time nutrition job alongside running my private practice, this past year has been full of exciting milestones - but it hasn’t all been easy.
There have been projects that didn’t work, events that had to be cancelled, and days I felt unmotivated. Yet through it all, I have grown so much and learned more than I ever imagined.

Some highlights from this year:
✨ Delivering nutrition talks at corporate events (online and in-person)
✨ Co-hosting wellbeing events for women & my first-ever men’s health event
✨ Working at Stanmore Wellness Clinic
✨ Running my own healthy eating webinars
✨ Delivering sessions on menopause
✨ Recording my podcast Nourish & Flourish
✨ Running my own 12-week online weight loss programme Freedom From Diets
✨ Delivering Facebook and Instagram Lives, recording interviews, and attending networking events
✨ Connecting with GPs to support patient care
✨ Sharing my own mental health journey on The 111 Approach Podcast
✨ Being invited to the Nutritionist Brunch Club
✨ Supporting amazing clients 1:1

I am forever grateful to my incredible mentor Jenna Hope - your encouragement and support have meant the world, especially on the tougher days.

A huge thank you to all the amazing people I have connected with - clients, fellow business owners, friends, and family. Your support has made this journey so special.

Here’s to year 3 - full of growth, connection, and helping more people feel nourished and empowered.

Loved hearing Pratibha talk about her journey - she has done so well! 👏🏽

She went from overeating, having large portions, snacking a lot, and not fitting into her old clothes…

⬇️

…to being more in control of her meals at home and in restaurants, cutting back on unhealthy snacks, and enjoying balanced meals.

She can now fit into her old blouses and trousers - such an incredible change. 🏆😊

🎉 Happy New Year! 🎉

January often arrives with big resolutions, big goals, and big ideas… and while the motivation feels great, the reality is that many of these changes only last a few weeks.

Why?

Because the goals are usually too big, too restrictive, or attempted with no support.

For example:
“I’m not going to eat chocolate for the whole year.”
If you’re a chocolate lover… that’s just not realistic - and it sets you up to feel like you have failed before you have even begun.

This year, let’s do things differently.

I am here to help you make real, sustainable lifestyle changes, without cutting out the foods you love. My approach is evidence-based, non-diet, and holistic, taking into account things like:
✨ Your relationship with food
✨ Stress levels
✨ Sleep
✨ Motivation
✨ Daily habits
✨ Your unique lifestyle

How I can support you:
💛 1:1 nutrition consultations
💛 My 12-week online group weight-loss programme Freedom From Diets (starting in a couple of weeks!)

If you are ready to make changes that last long after January is over, I would love to help you get started.
