I would like to introduce you to Claire who has kindly agreed to share her fat loss story. I hope that she can inspire you to believe that change is possible. You just have to decide to make the necessary changes that will make the difference! Well done Claire, you look amazing!! Read more below to find out how she has made this incredible transformation.....
My aunt very thoughtfully paid for training sessions with Sue for Christmas in 2011. After visiting Sue and understanding her methods, I was very excited to begin training. Yet with Sue the training also comes with a weekly dialogue about ways to approach health and how to envisage the results you are after. With me, it was very much about losing weight at the start as I thought this would be the only indicator of weightloss. However, Sue re-educated me to understand that there are many other factors which contribute to a healthier body. This includes a healthier mind and belief system. Before beginning, I would very much look at the negatives (too fat, big tummy etc) and this is counterproductive to success. Sue taught me to look at the bigger picture and to remain positive. At first it was very difficult to change my beliefs but truely this was the only way I was going to achieve success. Now, I think myself healthier and slim and this positive attitude has contributed to my continued weightloss and healthier body.
Sue helpfully showed me a number of exercises I can complete at home or at the gym. This has meant that I have been able to continue working out in a way which I know works. By doing circuit training, I have been strengthening my muscles AND not allowing myself to become bored by endless hours on the cardio machines.
My attitude to food has also changed. We discussed how your body is like an engine that needs fuelling in order to work properly. If you don't have enough fuel your engine won't work efficiently. Likewise, if you give the engine the wrong type of fuel it will not work in the way you wish it to work. So now, with that thought in mind, I try to combine a healthier way of eating with a more active lifestyle. This has worked!
There is still a long way to go for me. However, I now have the skills and tools to help me continue.
Thank you Sue! X

Hello Sue and Everyone
Consider yourself hugged and congratulated Claire :-) with thanks for sharing your great news. Sue's approach is so special and so individually tailored to each person. It is just great that she really listens, ponders and engages very meaningfully in ensuring that I keep moving forward. I too would like to stress the crucial learning point you make Claire re thinking positively about my body. This for me has been a turning point.
Lovely to have access to a like-minded group of people.
Happy Fat Scrapping!
