Weight Management    
 
 
If there was a simple way to lose weight we would all be doing it by now. You only have to look at how many diet and fitness books there are to realise that one size doesn’t fit all. Losing weight, however, isn’t rocket science, if you don’t burn off what you put in you will put on weight. The most commonly asked question appears to be ‘how quickly can I lose weight?’ There is no exact answer as everyone has a different metabolic rate (the rate at which the body uses energy). It is, however, worth taking into consideration that to lose 1lb of fat you need to burn 3,500 kcals either from reducing calorie intake or by exercising.

Forget the blood group diet, zone diet, south beach diet and start living healthily! From experience, Wendy has found that the key to successful weight management is the fusion of an active lifestyle, a healthy balanced diet consisting of protein, good fats and low glycaemic index carbohydrates and a good amount of willpower! It’s interesting to see that once people begin to lose weight and start receiving compliments, their motivation to carry on increases ten fold! The hardest step with change is always the first.

Wendy’s simple but motivating approach to weight management through exercise and nutrition has proved to be extremely effective for many of her clients. Wendy always recommends clients keep a food diary to identify current eating patterns and can even come to your local supermarket to help you make the right choices in your weekly shop. Should you, however, require an in-depth dietary analysis, this can be arranged though Natalie Savona, one the UK’s top nutritional experts. See Useful links page.
