Abbie: I love now simply guilt
free eating is for my whole family to experience without feeling
like I am on a diet"
I wanted to work with Catherine and learn how to nourish my
lifestyle and eat guilt free because I wanted to find an approach
of taking better care of myself that would last. Once I learned the
science of satisfaction and Catherine taught me how to adjust the
formula to meet my lifestyle needs I began feeling better almost
instantly. I had more energy and felt in control of my eating
within a matter of weeks. One bonus I didn't account for before
working with Catherine was her wealth of knowledge on how to
simplify eating for real life.
The benefits I have gained from learning how to nourish my
lifestyle and eat guilt free include fantastic energy, improved
health and fitness AND the mindset around eating that has flowed
onto every other aspect of my life. As a by product of all of this
weight loss also has happened without the push and effort of diets
or programmes that I had tried before.
I deal with stress better and now I know how to eat when life
shows up and decides to throw me a curve ball. I run my own
business as well as being a mother so life can get pretty hectic.
It is so nice knowing that I wont get sick when things get chaotic
and even more so I can teach my kids the same priniciples so my
daughter never will do a diet as she gets older!

Jennifer: "I love how eating guilt free could be tailored to my
vegetarian tastes and my busy lifestyle as a radio host"
After hearing Catherine speak at an event I knew I had to get
advice from her because I was told I had to be vegetarian to be
healthy and get results. I do prefer to eat mostly vegetarian
and Catherine showed me where I was missing things in my eating so
I was more balanced.
Regular feedback and great non judgemental advice was so helpful
and I didn't ever feel like I had to work anything out myself which
made it a no brainer. I still had freedom from pre packaged
foods and the recipes were so quick and easy. I never had to worry
I was getting enough or the right nutrients. I have better
skin, I have lost weight and kept it off, my measurements have
shifted and now know how to fuel the body for what I need. I
am so glad I don't have to drop carbs completely and know the truth
about what food does when I eat it. I can still have the food I
used to call bad but I now know how to balance it and change the
way I label it and my relationship with the redundant foods.
I have never felt so full and satisfied under a nutritionists
advice before.

Cathie: "I love how guilt free eating can be personalised to me
and my social lifestyle"
I found working with
Catherine online a breeze because she was friendly, non judgemental
and adapted my eating regime to my lifestyle which is very
social. I have learned that eating is a science itself but
better still the science of satisfaction can be adapted to my
personal situation which means I don't have to cut out drinking
alcohol, I can still choose what I like off a menu and I don't feel
guilty because I know how my body works so can make choices to
balance what I like to eat and drink. I have now lost
over 10kg and I am still continuing to lose weight by knowing what
I personally need. I love the fact that there is not a NO,
when I have found doing other diets to have lots of restrictions,
no coffee, no alcohol, no bread, others have you buying special
meals, but when you have a family as well you don't want to have to
treat yourself any differently.
Rachel - "Guilt Free Eating helped me beat Chronic Fatigue even
through thousands of earthquakes"
I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome as a result of
Glandular Fever within the same year. The doctors told me
there was nothing they could do for me and was told it could take
years to feel improvement.
I was physically inactive because I was physically exhausted all
the time. I was always unhappy with my body weight but became
interested in applying to work with Catherine and see if she could
help my energy.
Catherine taught me the science of satisfaction and how it applied
to my lifestyle and me personally. I had increased energy and
it gave me hope that perhaps I could get well again, despite
what I had been told by my doctor.
She taught me how to cater my eating to my lifestyle, likes,
dislikes and dietary requirements. I didn't have to go
without those things I love!
Catherine showed me how to adjust a few simple things in my daily
food routine for including things like going to cafes and eating
with two daughters. I gained so much energy I could start
exercising again when before knowing how to eat for my lifestyle I
would just crash and be on bed rest.
Catherine was motivating and encouraging and I felt like she
really cared about my progress for my sake. I never once felt
alone in the process at any stage.
I have lost three dress sizes in total and eight years later
(and now with two daughters) I am feeling so much better
within myself and the Chronic Fatigue is now non-existent. My
doctor even asked me what changes I had made and the name of my
nutritionist as he was so impressed with my progress.
What surprised me the most was that I am actually busier these
days with two daughters and have been through thousands of
earthquakes living in Christchurch yet I have never gone back to
how I was eight years ago. Coaching with Catherine has been
literally life changing.
I truly believe it is the way I am eating and catherine taught me
how to read my body for what it needs and to balance it. It also
has meant I don't fall back into exhaustion especially with being a
busy mother.
I definitely recommend working with Catherine to anyone
serious about getting healthy permanently and getting the
freedom back from what they eat. I can't express strongly
enough how grateful I am for the knowledge I have gained from
learning how to eat guilt free. It has changed my attitude to
food and this is a big change from the person who eight years
ago, who found it a struggle to even walk for 10 minutes without
getting tired!
Jacqui "I loved how guilt free eating taught me how I could
still enjoy the foods I love, be healthy and no longer feel
guilty"
I loved how I learned about how my body worked and how I needed
to balance normal every day foods. It made it easy to stick to with
working late nights and I found I had so much more energy and was
eating more.
It was easy to keep results over Christmas when I was doing
radio work at Rhythm and Vines and drinking alcohol. It totally
opened my mind to the way I used to eat and I found the eating
guide that was designed for me so easy to follow because it built
around my lifestyle rather than me having to change it.
No longer do I have to stress if I eat foods I would normally
feel guilty about because I know how to balance them at the next
meal. I knew what to do but I wasn't doing it and Catherine
showed me simply what to add in rather than to completely change so
I can keep on doing it without her.
Jenny - "I love that guilt free eating suited my lifestyle as a
busy working Mum"
|
I was finding it hard to lose the post baby weight on my own. I
was comfort eating and snacking and not getting much exercise apart
from walking. I felt tired and unmotivated. Getting up
to a baby in the night left me exhausted and I needed some help and
motivation to get going. Catherine helped support me to find
a way of eating that worked for me being a mum and I didn't have to
eat seperately to my family.
I have much more energy and can enjoy the evenings with my
partner without falling asleep on the couch. I am so happy I
have found a way that works for just me and don't ever need to
diet or follow another programme. It is more about changing
things around a bit and adding things in so that you can eat and
drink the things that you want. We can still go to the
restaurants that we want and join in at kids parties for some party
food without feeling like I have failed. I can totally recommend
Catherine to help you find the way of eating that will be
personalised to you and it works!

Amy - "I love how learning to eat guilt free means shopping for new
clothes is now fun"
|
I enjoyed the personalised service with having Catherine
at my finger tips to ask any questions about my eating. You
feel like a VIP with fast responses online from Catherine online
three times a week via my own private food diary.
I have now lost 8kg by following Catherine's advice that is
personlised to me. I moved to Melbourne and was still able to get
great advice because the online food diary works anywhere. I
recently did a 6 week trip around Europe where I was able to still
explore all it had to offer (including the large beers and all the
pastries!). I also feel the difference when I run, snowboard and
now love going shopping for clothes! It's nice having to wear
the a smaller clothing size from where I was before
plus after everyone starts noticing and complimenting just when you
forget you even learned how to eat in the first place. Its too
easy.

Angela "I loved how guilt free eating caters for my gluten free
lifestyle"
Catherine is fantastic for accountablity and I love that I can
come and go as I need to get a review of my eating when I feel I am
not as aligned as I would like.
I love how NOVA includes breakfast, lunch and dinner recipes
that are gluten free so I don't have to think. The recipes are
really easy and my whole family can eat the same as me with out
having to be gluten free because my eating guide is coloured coded
to swap foods around to suit everyone.

Betsy - "I loved that guilt free eating added more energy and
nourished my lifestyle for another baby"
I love NOVA because it was personalised to me being a mum and
wanting to have another baby. It helped me learn so much
about food when I already thought I had a pretty good grasp on it.
My new way of eating is not that different to what I was
doing before because it doesn't feel like I have had to be as
focussed on changing things as I assummed I needed to be to get
results.
It has really opened my eyes to how imbalanced my eating
was, how to include carbs and actually get results. I thought
I was eating produce but after working with Catherine I wasn't
having the same variety as I have now and it is so easy. I am
sitting at a 5kg loss and it hasn't even been four weeks - long may
it continue.

Hannah - "I love how learning how to eat guilt free works for
me when I travel all over the world"
I loved getting advice from Catherine - she is knowledgable and
has taught me so much about how the body works. It is not
like a programme it just feels like you have friend at the
other end of computer giving you feedback about how to balance my
lifestyle so I can stay well and don't have to worry if I am not
eating perfectly. I also learnt about the effects certain
foods had on my energy, and no longer experience the afternoon
'crash'.
I really enjoyed Nova because it fitted in with my busy life
that includes lots of travel. I soon learned there were no
foods that were 'bad' or 'off limits'. I learnt that with by
adjusting what I ate before or after eating certain
foods, I could enjoy whatever foods I wanted. I
also liked that I could get results and a boost in energy without
having to go to the gym for hours every week

Amber - "I love the accountability of the guilt free food
school and that Catherine is available to answer questions each
day"
The most surprising result was the end of my sugar cravings
which stopped in less than two weeks. I've always had a very
sweet tooth and this was the first time I ever remember having a
block of chocolate in the fridge for several days and not even
being tempted to have a piece.
NOVA is really easy to understand, and will work in with your
lifestyle, plus you won't be judged for any of your choices.
I like the accountability of submitting the online food
diary, plus the regular advice from the online feedback is great
for keeping things on track.
My advice fits in with me studying part-time while working
full-time and like most people when life gets busy healthy habits
are the first thing to suffer, by grabbing convenience food and
skipping exercise to spend more time on studying. I no longer
feel uncomfortable in my clothes and have enough energy for work
and what life throws at me.

Kim - "I loved that guilt free eating shifted the way I look at
food and removed my ON/OFF approach to healthy eating while putting
the fun back in cooking"
I loved the knowledge that I was being supported during the new
learning process to me it seemed like a lot of food to eat in
a day but once I got used to what I needed it really did make
sense because I started having more energy and seeing results.
The best results have been my health is better and of course my
clothes look and feel a lot better. I have a long way to go yet but
with still learning portion size its going to be a while before its
second nature as bad habits are hard to break but Catherine is
always there as a reminder which is so helpful. I am so glad
I don't feel like I have to be perfect anymore. I am so glad I
don't ever have to diet again and I understand the difference
between nourishment and eating healthy.
