"I started working with cindy during my training for him st george purely because I was training hard but constantly hungry and fatigued, sometimes bailing on my workouts because I had no energy. I had never worked with a nutritionist before and was nervous. I trying to lose a few stubborn pounds. I genuinely thought I was eating too much. I didn’t realize I was cutting my calories too severely and ruining my performance at the same time. It was a lot for me to put myself out there and have someone look at what I ate. I was reassured during our first chat as I realized cindy does not judge or criticize. It turned out I wasn’t eating nearly enough for my ultimate goal, and during hard training I was encouraged to eat much more than I had previously... Those were happy months! My training improved, as did my mood and focus. Cindy kept in touch regularly and answered all of my questions and supported me when I needed it. Cindy provided nutrition guidelines for my daily living and also race day, talking through the plans in advance to make sure I was confident and understood how to eat well for optimum performance.

After St George I decided to keep working with cindy during the off season to lose a little excess weight whilst I wasn’t training so intensely. Cindy re-evaluated my diet and nutritional needs and created an affordable and easy to follow plan. After a few months I am eating better without even thinking about it as I have learned to make healthier choices. I still have treats as cindy doesn’t like to deny any foods, instead I have learned to identify why I want those foods and enjoy them when I do eat them. I have lost body fat whilst maintaining muscle and I can perform during my training sessions and short distance triathlons. I have learned a lot about nutrition working with cindy, she has made eating very simple and enjoyable again!"
