| Welcome to your August Newsletter |
Hi everyone, 
I can always tell when it's getting to the end of summer holiday "season" because the phone starts ringing a lot more than usual! And do you know the number one reason for most people to make that call to me? Seeing themselves in a holiday photo! There's something about seeing yourself in an image, particularly if it was an unguarded moment when you weren't sucking everything in or standing behind someone else, that can shock you into a reality that you may have been avoiding.
If this sounds like you, then stop procrastinating, pick up the phone to call me or email me and let's get going on creating a beach body for the next holiday.
I run a full suite of Programmes to suit pretty much everyone and I've listed these below so you can pick the one that's best for you.
If you are a past client however and want the Mini Bootcamp option then don't procrastinate for too long as that starts next Monday (31st August) and places are limited (there are five places left at time of sending this). And yes it is Bank Holiday Monday, we only ever close at Christmas and New Year so clients who are in Monday groups still receive a fully supported service, for no extra cost.
We've have some great stories in the Press recently. The ones that stand out in particular are Craig Cooper who magically seemed to transform himself into Olly Murs! It's quite uncanny how he now looks like him after an eight stone weight loss (see below).
Plus it was also rather nice to see Carole Crocker's story as she is a Nurse and she told her story from the viewpoint of someone who works in the health care system. The majority of GP's and Nurses I deal with are now all up to date about LighterLife and recognise its benefits; that we are the only weight loss provider to be regulated by NICE (National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence) and that we are classified by both the EU and the UK as having the highest nutritional content products on the market. Sadly, some medical professionals are a bit behind on their research because I still hear some outrageously ill informed statements made by some of them, which is really rather concerning.
I try and post as many weight loss success stories as possible on my LighterLife Loughborough Facebook page and I'm on a mission at the moment to increase the number of "Likes" for my page, so it would be great if you could use this link to go there and click "Like" 
Plus, as ever, we are open as normal on Bank Holiday Monday 31st August for either groups or pop ins, but, I won't be opening up until 5pm for groups.
Is 2015 going to be your year, the year when you achieve the body and level of fitness that you want? If so, why not come and find out more? If you are new to LighterLife then I run free Initial Appointments twice a week at 3.30pm and 6.00pm on a Wednesday and can arrange other day time appointments if required. Coming to an Initial Appointment doesn't obligate you to join, there will be no "hard sell". If you are a returning client then look below for the various options to help you to return.
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.

FROM RIK WALLER TO OLLY MURS!
Meet Craig Cooper. Like a lot of people who carry excess weight, he was subjected to a lot of name calling and bullying when he was at his heaviest - but look who had the last laugh. He now looks amazing and uncannily like Olly Murs. Read his story below:

4 WEEK MINI BOOTCAMP
If you didn't like what you saw of yourself in your holiday pics, now's the time to do something aabout it, so, grab a place on the 4 Week Mini Bootcamp opening up on Monday 31st August at 7.15pm and aim to have lost at least one stone by the end of September and dropped at least one dress size. Places are limited, so don't hesitate!!
Free yourself from all that unwanted weight! 
The Mini Bootcamps are not about intensive physical training sessions, they just involve you following the Total abstinence Programme for four weeks and benefiting from four weeks of group counselling looking at your relationship with food and how to adjust it to help you keep the weight off. You commit to attend the majority of the sessions over the four weeks and purchase all four Weekly Fees up front on the first night (£60 - non refundable) to seal the deal!
Clients who have successfully completed past Bootcamps have said:
"Knowing it is just for four weeks really helps you focus"
"The enthusiasm in the group is infectious!"
"It was a great kick-start for me"
To secure your place either ring 01509 234433, or email debbie.ford@lighterlifecounsellor.com, or Text only 07860017700 (not a mobile phone but a text messaging service)

ACCESS PAST NEWSLETTERS FOR MUCH MORE INSIGHT
I generally send out a newsletter each week. Once a month is a general news item, like this one, then in-between I will pick a theme such as the difference between "Diet Thinking" and "LighterLife thinking" or how the way that you think hugely influences what you do to write about.
I rarely repeat myself, so, if you would like a trawl through the archives to help you find out much more about what LighterLife is all about, and see some great success stories, then instead of reading a magazine with your morning cuppa, just click below, put your feet up and enjoy!

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 or the low calorie Lite Programme. Men and women have their own groups. 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 Wednesday 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 FOR NEW CLIENTS - 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 where you will follow the Total abstinence Programme. You must attend an Initial Appointment with me before you can join. Call me to book one.
LADIES RETURNER - DAY TIME: Monday 2.00pm to 3.30pm
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 than the Management group to lose the weight. You can follow either the Total or Lite Programme in this group and you can stay in the group for as many consecutive weeks as you wish.
LADIES RETURNER - EVENING: Monday 5.30pm to 7.00pm or Wednesday 7.00pm to 8.30pm
These groups are 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 than the Management group to lose the weight. You can follow either the Total or Lite Programme in this group and you can stay in the group for as many consecutive weeks as you wish.
LADIES MANAGEMENT AND LITE- Tuesday 5.30pm to 6.55pm NEW TIME!!
This group is for ladies who are currently going through the Management Phases 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 and are using the group for on-going support to help them maintain their weight loss.
LADIES MINI BOOTCAMP - Monday 7.15pm to 8.45pm
This group is for returning 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 Monday 31st August.
MEN'S GROUP - Tuesday 2.00pm to 3.30pm
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.
