Scared of eating a banana 😱… restrictive  diets ☠️… confused about food 🤔… skin looked grey😞. 

Carole’s words might strike a chord for you.

“As a woman of a certain age you would think that I would know the basics or what I should and shouldn’t eat – of course, I do, however, after following many diets such as low carbs, low fat, 800 calories a day, and then a very restrictive 600/800 calories from packet foods/shakes/soups/bars – you know the type of diet I mean, where you don’t think about what you are going to eat as it’s all worked out for you on a packet x 4 per day.

Yes, I lost lots of weight very quickly, but friends were saying that I didn’t look well and that my skin looked grey!

I was constantly sick and ended up with a bad chest infection and couldn’t stomach anymore packet meals (plus side effects were embarrassing!)

As a result, I became so confused about ‘real’ food that I was scared of eating a banana (27 carbs!) I know that sounds ridiculous but it’s true. I became frustrated and confused about food and meanwhile the weight was piling on far quicker than I had lost it!

I contacted Noelle and explained my dilemma and fears – she wasn’t critical or shocked but listened, understood what had happened to me and thanked me for my honesty. She then reassured me that she could help and that bananas were not my enemy! I have been training live online with her for just over 2 months x twice a week and during that time I have re-induced myself to healthy foods – every variety and colour. I did initially follow Noelle’s Fabulous Cookbook as I felt I needed the reassurance of tried and tested recipes by a trusted/very experienced personal trainer. I now don’t need to follow a cookbook unless it’s a particularly lovely recipe (for which there are many in her book)

*NOTE FROM NOELLE; 

*If you have suffered repeated failures with diets, and are feeling frustrated that none of your clothes fit your properly any more, please just send me a message.  We can talk – and I can help you!
