Plant the seed to a better health.™
Yvonne is 2 stone down and feeling motivated, energised and confident to press ahead to her goal!
Yvonne, spent her 20’s and 30’s travelling the world with her high powered role in finance. Although, over the years, she had to keep an eye on her weight, it was never a major issue.
No stranger to fitness and exercise, she’d always managed to maintain a comfortable size 12-14 by simply cutting back a bit and a few days here and there on a “bootcamp” break when the need arose.
Settling back in the UK and then becoming a Mum to her beautiful daughter almost two years ago - saw some big changes in her life.
Yvonne’s postnatal routine included eating healthy and getting back to the gym when she could find the time, but her body at 40 just wasn’t responding as quickly as it did pre pregnancy.

Working Through Lockdown
Five months after giving birth it was time to get back to work - but with lockdown in full swing - working from home full time took its toll and the pounds began to pile on.
She was working extremely long hours, stuck at her desk in a high stress environment, grabbing food on the go and zero time for exercise.
For the first time in her life, Yvonne found herself comfort eating.
As her weight increased, she began feeling really down and so began the cycle of feeling low - turning to pizza and ice-cream - putting on more weight and feeling even more depressed.
She was struggling to keep up with an active toddler and any form of exercise was proving more and more challenging the heavier she got.
Something had to give!!!
The first thing to tackle was her job. The super long days and levels of stress were just no longer an option for her health and well being.
With a new job under her belt and relocation from Scotland to the home counties on the cards - she turned her attention to her physical health and weight goals.
Having lived in leggings and loose tops, it was a bit of a shock to realise that she’d reached a generous size 18 and was now looking at a goal of losing 4 stone.
New Beginnings
Yvonne heard about the Nutriseed 5:2 Club and felt it was a lifestyle she could live with. She loved the idea that all the planning and prep was done for her so two days a week, she could just grab a juice and go!
In four months (which included a two week holiday - treats of wine, ice-cream and the odd pastry) she has dropped 2 stone.
As her weight was going down, her energy and activity levels were going up.
She was feeling more confident, enjoying getting back to the gym and even started running again (something she wouldn’t have contemplated back in June).
Is her weight loss as fast as the extreme bootcamp regimes of her 20’s? No - there is no doubt that losing weight is more of a challenge than back then.
The 5:2 Club is steady, sustainable and fits around her family and work. It’s a lifestyle change that is reaping rewards where others had failed.
The 2 days of juicing each week has encouraged healthier habits on the other days too and she’s confident that her goal is firmly in her sights.
