LighterLife Loughborough


September 2014

Welcome to your September Newsletter

Hi everyone, Debbie Ford   

 

I've decided that there are three great things about Autumn:

 

1.  Downton Abbey returns

2.  New series of Strictly Come Dancing starts

3.  Lots of new, enthusiastic clients start their LighterLife journey.

 

We were having a discussion in one of the groups last week about what was the trigger for them to stop "just dieting" and to move to LighterLife's Lifestyle Change Programme and most said it was seeing their summer holiday photos.  Particularly the ones taken when they hadn't managed the grab the camera first, hadn't dodged behind someone else to hide or weren't sucking everything in!!  Sound familiar?

 

If this strikes a chord, please enjoy the newsletter and then make an appointment to come and see me to discuss how I could help you.  These initial appointments have no strings attached - I'm not suddenly going to launch into a "hard sell" we'll just chat about what happens over a coffee in the comfortable surroundings of my counselling room and then you decide if it could be the weight loss solution for you.

 

New Room 1 April 13

I've also decided that there are so many interesting articles and insights that I want to share with clients that I'm going to do a much smaller email every week on a Friday containing just one article to help to inspire and advice, as well as this monthly newsletter.  Let me know what you think? 

 

 

If you haven't been for a while, or have been put off joining because it will mean a trip to your GP for approval - the vast majority of clients can now self certify for both the Total Programme and the Lite Programme.  Only those with conditions such as Type II Diabetes or on medications that need to be monitored still need to visit their GP.  If you are unsure, then just give me a call on 01509 234433 or drop me a line at debbie.ford@lighterlifecounsellor.com and I'll be happy to advise.

 

So, if this long, hot summer has made you more aware than ever that you may be carrying a few too many pounds, or, you've come back from holiday and don't like what you see on the photographs of you, then come along to a free, no obligation initial appointment on a Wednesday at either 3.30pm or 6.00pm and find out how we can help you.  Either ring 01509 234433 or email debbie.ford@lighterlifecounsellor.com or text 07860017700 to book a place.  This does not commit you in anyway to joining, but you just might find it can be the start of an exciting new healthier life for you.

  

I look forward to meeting you soon.

IN THEIR OWN WORDS

  

The current LighterLife magazine features two great weight loss stories on the front and back cover.  Rob Gillett who lost 20 stones and Sharon Shaw who lost 4 stones.

 

Both have made short videos of what the weight loss means to them and what their journey was like.  I think you'll find them inspirational.

LIGHTERLIFE GROUPS - WHICH ONE IS THE ONE FOR YOU?


 

At LighterLife here in Loughborough we offer a full range of groups to suit all clients, but, sometimes which one is right for you can be confusing.  The groups will follow either the Total abstinence Programme and/or the low calorie Lite Programme.  So, here is a description of each group and who it suits.

 

Each group gives you at least an hour of group counselling every week as well as on-going support whenever you need it during the rest of the week.  There are also pop in times available every day Monday to Thursday to aid flexibility if you cannot get to a group time for whatever reason, but, the key to success on LighterLife is to aim to attend the majority of sessions to learn more about your relationship with food - otherwise you will only be doing a diet!

 

LADIES TOTAL - Tuesday 7.00pm to 8.30pm


 

This group is for new female clients with a BMI of 28 or higher who have never been a client of LighterLife before.  


 

Group re-opens for newcomers on 23rd September 2014, but there are options for an earlier start.

 

LADIES REFRESHER - Monday 5.30pm to 7.00pm or Wednesday 7.00pm to 8.30pm


 

This group is for ladies who, for whatever reason, have left the Programme early before completing, or, have completed but have found a few pounds creep back on and want a more structured environment that the Management group to lose the weight.  You can follow either the Total or Lite Programme in this group.


You can join any week.

  

LADIES MANAGEMENT AND LITE- Thursday 5.30pm to 7.00pm


 
 This group is for ladies who are currently going through the Management Phase or who are doing the Lite low calorie Programme or are Life Members, i.e. those who have completed the entire Programme of weight loss and all the Management phases.


 

LADIES FOUR WEEK COMMITMENT GROUP - Monday 7.15pm to 8.45pm


 

This group is for Ladies who want to commit to a full four weeks on the Total Programme.  The commitment is made by paying for the four Weekly Fees up front and then attending each of the four weekly sessions and purchasing a full 28 foodpacks each week.  This group is available to any ex-clients and Life Members, but, not to any of have previously enrolled on a specific time period group such as this, or a Bootcamp, and failed to complete the number of weeks they committed to.


 

Next 4 week commitment due to commence 15th September.

(N.B. Enrol early for this group as it is very popular - places go fast and are limited to just 11)


 

MEN'S GROUP - Tuesday 5.30pm to 6.45pm


 

This is for all Men regardless of status.  You can start any week, but, once you start the commitment is to purchase a Weekly Fee and 28 foodpacks every consecutive week with no missed weeks.  The only exceptions to this are for Life Members who can purchase any amount of foodpacks and attend whenever they wish, and those undertaking the Management Phases where the number of foodpacks relates to the stage they are at.


 

You can join any week.
