“I’ve not got that much to lose really; I’ll never get rid of this tummy because I’ve had two children; I eat healthily so it can’t be my diet; I spin 4-5 times a week and burn so many calories, it’s weird how I’m not losing weight.”

A year ahead of turning 40, I had the idea that when that milestone birthday arrived, I wanted to feel as good as I could. Just 4 months ahead of the big birthday I started working with Nancy in face to face personal training sessions and I still strongly held onto all of the ideas and beliefs above.

From that very first session and beyond, Nancy educated me about diet and exercise and that has been the single most important factor that has enabled me to completely change the way I look and feel. As well as the face to face sessions, her constant support in between kept me on track.

When the big birthday milestone arrived, I honestly felt the best I have in my entire adult life – slim, fit and very importantly, strong. I had lost a significant amount of body fat and my body shape had changed beyond belief. When I reflect on the 4 month journey, it really wasn’t that difficult – I still had fun, socialised, went out for dinner, drank alcohol, went on weekends away and to parties – and therefore the changes that I have made feel totally sustainable

I really thought I knew what to do and that the reason I wasn’t losing weight or changing shape were related to factors beyond my control. How wrong I was!

Thank you, Nancy, for the education, the belief and the constant support. I truly feel Fabulous at Forty!

I met Nancy at Nuffield gym while attending her spin and body pump classes. I needed a kick start on shifting some weight, and saw the amazing weight loss her clients had achieved with her online training.

We started chatting and I nervously joined her online Pt. Measuring every week and seeing the centimetres drop, was so motivational. We all get so fixated on the scale, but centimetre loss is far more rewarding.

It was the best thing I’ve ever done! I logged my calories, and with her guidance on diet and healthy eating, I started seeing results. She is a very positive and inspirational person, which changed my attitude towards so many things. Some weeks were better than others, but she kept me on my toes. I love my exercise now, and there are very few days, I don’t work out.

I highly recommend her, and would not have been able to be so dedicated without her. I now, feel so much better, and know I’ll be able to make much better choices in my day to day life. I feel positive and motivated and it’s all thanks to her.
