When I first decided to take action and search online for a solution, I weighed 101kg.
This affected my confidence levels as I used to hide behind baggy clothes, avoid taking/being in photos and struggled with social settings.
Being overweight took a toll on my mental health, emotionally and physically – struggling with depression and motivation, I knew I needed to lose weight, I wanted to lose weight.
However, I lacked support and willingness to make this change.
I was physically unhappy with the following things that was caused by weight gain:
1. During a trip to Devon, I could not hike up the hill and being left behind by friends was very embarrassing.
2. During a trip to Italy, there was a set of steep stairs which I was unable to get to the top – again, another embarrassing moment.
3. Photos
4. Size of Clothes
5. Being the slowest in netball and struggling on court which meant most of the time I spent the season on the bench
6. Out of breath going up stairs
7. Depression lead to taking antidepressants
8. Not feeling good enough
I decided that I had had enough and started to search for a solution when suddenly I could not stand to look at any photos I had been in as I always looked like the fat friend.
When searching online I was specifically looking for a camp but all were out of budget at the time, I wanted a quick fix as I had no motivation.
I need to be guided in the right direction with support, I came across Jazz’s website and originally was attracted to his 12 week body transformation.
I was attracted to the level of detail on the website, the fact he trained in north London which is my area.
I knew that in order for me to succeed I needed to focus healthily on nutrition which is something I had not done before.
I read all of the testimonials on the website and saw all of Jazz’s qualifications which gave me the confidence to contact him.
Jazz is very quick to respond and I am astounded by the knowledge, positivity and effort he puts into all things.
Nothing is too much for Jazz; he will go above and beyond what is required to achieve your goals.
I was provided with professional answers but even more knowledge than I had bargained for.
The initial communication increased my confidence as Jazz spends a great amount of time before you accept the programme, learning everything about you to ensure he has all the details required to customise your programme.
This gave me great belief that his goal is ALWAYS to support the client and ensure you reach your goal.
After completing the consultation, I realised that the nutrition I was eating was not good and the reason for weight gain.
Over the years I had done a lot of exercise with netball and gym classes however without the right nutrition and change of lifestyle I was never going to lose weight.
Jazz’s in-depth consultation allows you to understand your body type and the fuel you need in order to change your lifestyle and habits.
Jazz provided coaching during the consultation.
The level of details helps you correctly prioritise your goals which without writing them down you don’t even realise they are a goal.
The coaching allowed me to understand the reasons why I needed to do this.
After the consultation and coaching I knew at that moment Jazz was the right fit for me.
The comprehensive nutrition plan that Jazz created provided the inspiration and customisation I needed as there was a huge amount of variety.
It wasn’t just a meal plan for Monday to Friday, there were choices for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks.
The recipes were tasty which made the plan easy to stick to, I found my energy levels tripled which made me feel like a new person.
I found the list of cruciferous vegetables very useful and it allowed you to eat a range of vegetables rather than the same ones.
The variety of selected fruit was a good sugar craving curb.
Jazz’ daily coaching, support and motivation helped me to stay on track as I had someone to be accountable to, someone to motivate me and guide me with any amendments if I wasn’t quite on track.
Jazz was always available to make any adjustments to the programme as required.
Sending photos and keeping a food diary allowed me to also see what I was eating and Jazz gave me guidance on how to improve this, whether it be adding more cruciferous veg or advising me to up the length of my training sessions.
In total in August 2021, I lost a total of 16 1/4 kg weight loss, this was two dress sizes on my upper body, and one dress size on my lower body.
I was so happy that in the lead up to my wedding that year, I felt much happier in my outfit and the thought of appearing in photos was not so daunting after all.
My confidence has changed as a result of losing weight as I no longer feel that I cannot be in photos, I don’t feel uncomfortable in social settings.
My physical performance has increased dramatically.
I am now able to go for walks and I can play a full game of netball without being in pain.
My mental health improved greatly during the programme, seeing the difference in my weight loss each week gave my mental health a boost as I was succeeding.
I wanted to keep going and I was more determined and motivated.
This was a weight off my shoulders, I felt more free, and I was able to perform better in all areas.
This was the most weight I had ever lost which was very rewarding
I trust Jazz wholeheartedly and would recommend his professional weight loss services in a heartbeat.
I would recommend Jazz because he is focused, caring, supportive and goes above and beyond your package.
The level of detail and knowledge he puts into his clients is to be admired.
I truly believe that anyone that wants to make a change should contact Jazz and he will change your life!
Olivia.
