I was thrilled with the quick results but the unique element of Lighterlife is the CBT. This therapy helped me understand my relationship with food and it was only at that point I realised I used certain types of food when feeling certain emotions. I gave myself excuses to eat because I deserved it or because life was too short not to have those foods I called treats but I suddenly realised life was too short to remain obese or even overweight, I wanted to enjoy life at a healthier weight. Once I understood this I started working on behaviours that changed those habits and over time these became my new normal. I am now lighter than I was 25 years ago thanks to Lighterlife and I want to help you not just lose the weight but keep it off long term. I offer 1:1 appointments either face to face or virtually. I also have a very active, very supportive group of ladies and gents who are on their own Lighterlife journey which you can be a part of. We hold weekly CBT sessions online and I love to work with you personally to help you find a weight management solution that will not only help you lose the weight you want but keep it off long term.
