She Hadn’t Lost Weight In 8 Years

I first met the wonderful Marie a few months ago as part of the exercise scheme I work on for the local council. She had been suffering with various health problems over the past few years and they were really affecting her life in a negative way. The usually simple tasks were starting to get […]

The January Doors Are Open (1 Space Left)

Good morning, So December is officially upon us. Probably the craziest month of the year, the month where some people write off doing anything remotely productive until the New Year. The month where some people who aren’t happy with their weight/shape decide that they’re going to put on another half a stone to a stone […]

The scales make them feel happy one minute and like they’re doing well and then sad, disappointed and like a failure the next. […]

5 Essential Nutrients (Do You Get Enough?)

Others which I know and see are so far away from even that. Some people’s diets are appalling. I still experience people who when asked […]

15 Lbs Down And Starting To Enjoy Exercise

Yo yo! Another busy week at HQ! Finished off an interesting course yesterday, PSI (postural stability instructor). Was a really good course and interesting! For me it really hit home about how we need to look after ourselves to avoid the many many health problems associated with ageing. Not for me thanks! Look after yourself […]
