The guidance and support that I received from Linnie (Healthy Lifestyles Advisor) worked well on a number of levels. First of all she was clear that we were not dieting but learning to eat sensibly from an informed position. I think addressing my efforts in this way really got my attention. By carefully looking at food labels and really understanding what they mean I feel I am becoming a much better informed shopper.
Addressing portion size has been a revelation and I am delighted at the impact of serving my meals on a smaller plate. That this was all done with good humour and a non-judgemental manner – yes, even when my food diary showed that I had deviated temporarily from healthy eating – has meant that I have taken on board the guidance that I have been given. I thank you most sincerely for a professional and friendly service.
