Be your own nutrition coach!

Most of us are looking to improve our health and look at changing the way we eat as an obvious way to do it.  But the internet and social media can be a bit of a minefield and bring on information overload!  Where should you start and what changes should you actually make?

It’s easier to get help from an expert, but not everyone is at a point in life where they can afford to spend on a coach.

This is where I come in!  Whilst I can’t give everyone free coaching, I don’t believe that only the rich are entitled to good health, and I really want to help you reduce your footprint (even just a little bit!) so I want to help you to be your own health coach!

Below are free tools to help you to understand your relationship with food, set your goals and pick your food battles to set yourself up with a personalised action plan to improve your health and hopefully, lower your footprint along the way!  All without paying a penny!

This is a work in progress – I’m building it as we go, so keep checking back into this page…

For now, there’re two ways to move through this:

– signing up to the mailing list to get weekly emails for three months taking you through the process –

– or you can access the guides and templates below and take yourself through it for a true DIY experience!

Step1 – Where are you?

First up, we want to get an understanding of where you’re at, in terms of your health, your eating behaviours and …

So start by working through these quizzes, they should give you an idea of where you sit at the moment, and some ideas of possible goals for you to strive for.

After these, a really helpful tool for understanding some of your specific food relationships and habits is a food diary.

You’re probably thinking ‘but I know what I eat’.  Studies have shown that we tend to underestimate though, and forget things like snacks and drinks when we’re thinking about it later.  This is abut checking your assumptions as much as anything, and you might just find a link between your eating habits and your environment that you didn’t know existed. 

This step is all about being honest with yourself!

There are a few food diary options; you can keep a paper diary, an electronic one, or even use a free tracker like MyFitnessPal to record your meals.  The advantage of these for you DIYers is that they calculate your calories, macro splits and some of the micronutrients for you.  If you do it on paper you’ve got to do that bit by yourself. 

In the tools below you’ve go a food diary template, a quick guide to using MyFitnessPal and my full guide on how to keep AND analyse your food diary.
