NOELLE’S NOTES
Thoughts, tips & the occasional kick up the bum.
Thirty-plus years of experience, a fair bit of common sense… and quite a few opinions.
I’ve spent more than three decades helping women over 40 look after themselves.
Women 40+ should NOT do this
Weight gain over 40 is not inevitable. You might be making yourself more tired and actually more flabby by doing the wrong thing. This one's a longer read than normal, but worth it. Women age differently to men. The female hormonal change, often starting in your...
Grrr – Those Bl**dy Scales
The story of the scales Forget what the scales say. NSVs are the way to go when you're getting fitter and healthier. Weight loss is NEVER just about the scales. Non-Scale Victories. The scales are “The Sad Step”, after all. Why do you need Non-Scale Victories? ...
Free Workout
Here's what happened when I got selfish & picky I'm celebrating a birthday. Live Workouts with Noelle has just turned 1 year old. Begun during Lockdown in March 2020, this group has gone from strength to strength. I have over 80 amazing members - some of whom...
Food should not be a sin…or even a “Syn”
What words do you use in your own head when you think about food & drink? Honestly, if I had £5 for every time someone told me they've had "good days" and "bad days" then I would be a rich woman. But the thing is, all food is good. No food should really be bad....

Did Lockdown mean weight gain for you?
"I ATE & DRANK MY WAY THROUGH LOCKDOWN" Could that be your confession? Are you a Comfort Eater? Do you comfort eat or drink regularly to help you "cope"? Many people were already using food or drink to make themselves feel better. But now, 3 Lockdowns later, it...
A LITTLE WARNING…
I don’t believe in writing for the sake of having a blog.
I’m not going to churn out three articles a week because somebody told me that’s what successful websites do.
I’ll write when I’ve got something worth saying.
Something I’ve learned.
Something women keep asking me.
Something that’s been bothering me.
Or something I think you might find useful.
I’ll give you quality over quantity, always.
