I have pre diabetes, high cholesterol and low thyroid function. Although not significantly overweight I was noticing that the pounds were creeping on and whatever diet I tried seemed to make very little difference. in spite of being very active, playing gold and tennis as well as working out at the gym, I was aware of more aches and pains too and was concerned about my general level of fitness as I moved towards my late 60s. I searched the internet for local personal trainers experienced in nutrition and phoned Heather!

Heathers motivation and individual attention has been so beneficial for me. We have worked together for some 18 months now. We continually look at my diet and how my blood sugars react to the various food types. The exercises she takes me through are tailor made for me, building up the different sets of muscles and concentrating on specific problems. I have 2 homework sessions to do each week which are manageable. My fitness levels have improved dramatically, my body shape has changed due to the exercise regime, my blood sugar levels have lowered and I have reduced my dose of statins. My sleeping pattern has improved too.

Heather keeps in touch with me between sessions and is very helpful about how to cope on holiday and with eating out. We have a busy social life and one of the hardest things I find is managing cooking for friends and family and sitting around in the evenings nibbling on all the goodies! I am making better choices now and am more able to pass on the high sugar foods. When I go off track it is easier to get back on the straight and narrow again! Certainly Heather’s positive approach, individual attention, knowledge and enthusiasm has helped me to make significant changes and I am enjoying greater energy levels to cope with my busy lifestyle! Thank you Heather!
