Nick Bannister - Testimonial

On the 10th of January 2008 I visited the doctor who informed me that the present position I was in was seriously threatening my health. I weighed over 21stone and could not walk very far let alone do anything else. He also reminded me that I had two young girls who should make the most of their time with their dad if I intended to continue my life as It was. There is no greater shock than this nor is there a more frightening thought that I was going to have to make some serious changes and start an exercise routine and eating plan that I was not looking forward too.

When you were as large as me the most obvious issue is people looking at you in the gym and smiling to themselves. Then there is the thought of eating rabbit food which was hardly as tasty as kebab and chips. My wife was really encouraging and talked to me about getting a personal trainer at which I laughed. After some searching around we arranged a meeting with Simon to come to the house. My initial thought were that he was nothing like my vision of what I expected a personal trainer to be like.

He took so much time understanding my thoughts and feelings about what I wanted to do before even beginning to talk about what I was about to go through. After the initial meeting I signed up for a 3 month course and started following Simons eating plan which was really easy to do and more importantly very enjoyable to do.
