Myth vs Fact
MYTH: It costs too much.
FACT: That depends on a number of factors.
If you are living at home and your parents pay for the bulk of your food, then yes it will seem expensive. However, if you add up exactly how much you spend on food and drink in a week - not just the supermarket shop but all the takeaway meals, sandwiches, coffees, cans of pop, bags of crisps, etc and then compare it against the weekly cost at LighterLife of between £52.80 to £74.15 it may be more affordable than you think.
Plus, the cost is relevant to the speed that the weight comes off and how long you need to be on the Programme. Men lose at an average rate of 3 stones every 8 weeks and ladies 3 stones every 14 weeks, Plus, where else do you get an full counselling session as well completely free?

Healthy News and Advice
This month's advice is more about mental health, than physical.
Be loving to yourself. Relying on others for your self-esteem and making decisions based on other people rather than what you really want can cause grief all round. Tell yourself you are a good person, not perfect - no one is - but you try your best. Then give yourself permission to get things wrong, acknowledge it and move on!

LighterLife Loughborough Success Story

Sylvia Sept 2012 |

Looking stunning at Glyndebourne! |
Sylvia joined the Total Programme in Loughborough in March 2012 with an obese BMI of 36.3. By August 2012 she had shed a fantastic 5 stones of unwanted and unhealthy weight. Sylvia has now completed the entire Total Programme and is a Life Member.
This is her story in her own words:
" OVERWEIGHT AND DEPRESSED?.......................NOT ANYMORE!
Now, looking at myself in the mirror I confidently compare my image with that of TV star Pauline Quirke and her weight loss achievement on
the Lighterlife Total Programme. Yes, this is all because of the decision I made to go on the
Lighterlife Total Programme and I am so pleased I did (so too is Pauline
Quirke!).
Family and friends compliment my 'new look' appearance and to my utter surprise whilst at an evening at Glyndebourne a complete stranger
stopped me and said 'you look absolutely lovely my dear'. What more do any of us need to feel so blessed.
At 73, I can honestly say how much my energy has increased and despite having had both knees replaced during the last 8 years, I am much less aware due to the reduced weight pressure. My weight loss over the last
27 weeks is 32kgs (5 stones) and I cannot speak highly enough for the professional
support I received from Debbie our Lighterlife Counsellor. With her guidance I have achieved my goal and if I can do it, believe me, anyone
can.
Feel younger, feel good about yourself. Lighterlife will take you there..........."
If age has held you back from losing those unwanted pounds - take heart from Sylvia's story and come along for a free, no obligation Initial Consultation on a Wednesday at either 3.30pm or 7.15pm. Just give us a call to book a place on 01509 234433 or email debbie.ford@lighterlifecounsellor.com.

For those of you who are already clients you will know that LighterLife like to change foodpack flavours every quarter to give you as much variety as possible. As we are now entering the final quarter of the year the following changes are coming up: Creamy Asparagus soup, Cream of Onion soup and Raspberry Porridge will all be discontinued with stocks anticipated to run out at the end of October/Mid November. Summer Berries shake will continue to be available into early 2013. New products to be launched week commencing 5th November will be a return of the Apple and Cinnamon Porridge and also a new Mint Choc Winter Shake. Both will be limited editions and available until Spring 2013. Unfortunately, even though there was a demand for the return of Pea & Ham soup, it won't be making a comeback and at present there are no additional soup flavours planned. |
