"Having always struggled with my weight, I had finally had enough! Believe me, I am no couch potato, and even after having run 2 marathons, & 4 half marathons this year, I still managed to put on 6kg's! Everyone seemed to have an answer. Was I was eating the wrong foods? Someone said I was perhaps eating too much dairy... what has that got to do with weight loss? In any case, I only consumed skimmed milk and fat free Greek yogurt? Was it my alcohol intake - at 1/2 a bottle a week, surely not! I was truly fed up. I'd given up mostly everything
and I was surviving by measuring all my food, counting calories and driving my friends mad. I just didn't understand why my body was gaining weight. My doctor did all she could, but once the blood tests came back normal, she recommended I contact a Nutritionist. SO I did. Lucy-Ann has been fantastic and at last I feel I can communicate with someone who really understands. Her knowledge of nutrition is incredible. Lucy-Ann has given me a detailed analysis of possible solutions (milk intolerance being one) and has pointed me toward a new diet regime and way of eating. This has included trying new foods and having a more varied diet. The best news is, I have lost significant weight!
Thank you Lucy-Ann. I'm still on a journey to find out how to make my body strong and maintain energy for my sport - but I feel food is on my side now and not working against me!"
