• Spinach is loaded with double the fibre than other green vegetables, which helps the body process fats more easily.

• Eat omega-3 rich oily fish for greater optimism! …and look into Omega-3 Fish Oil supplements if oily fish like mackerel is lacking from your diet.

• Snack on Brazil Nuts which are loaded with selenium. Selenium strengthens the immune system, protects you against infection and even slows down ageing!

• Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to your morning oats or muesli. Cinammon lowers cholesterol levels, regulates blood sugar levels, increases metabolism and speeds up the body’s fat burning processes - a Super Spice. Some chopped root ginger will also strengthen your immune system, and tastes good too.

….and to Harriet Edwards for losing a stone in 7 weeks! The hard work has paid off and we’re well into working off the next stone already.

….also to Gerry, who’s gone from drinking 12 cups of tea a day to cutting out the caffeine completely - and feels like a changed man as a result!

Libby - 1.7kg

Ben - 1.0kg

Tania - 1.0kg

Michael - 0.9kg

Well done everyone - keep up the hard work and the weight will keep coming off.

Guest speaker Mark Ballard from Premier Training International in Bournemouth, gave a weight loss talk entitled ‘The Glycaemic Load, Carbs and Why Low Fat Diets Don’t Work’. It cleared up many grey areas people had about the often misunderstood topic of carbohydrates and among toehr things, highlighted just how detrimental to our health and blood sugar levels caffeine is.

Everyone who attended took away some vital new tips to improve their nutrition and make their diets healthier, and how understanding the Glycaemic Load is key to optimum nutrition.

‘The Low-GL Diet Bible’ by Patrick Holford is the best book to read for anyone who wants to know more.

There will be future events organised so watch this space for the next Open Day.
