A Note From Liz
Hello!
And thanks for all the feedback you’ve given me on the
newsletters… and by the way, if you want to contact
me I’d be happy to hear your views on No More Rabbit
Food!
The Cinderella article touched a few nerves. There are some others
out there who, like me, were not ultra-sympathetic towards
her.
The last newsletter appealed to the Trekkies in the audience and I
even had an email from a Klingon. I’m glad that my news reaches the far
ends of the known universe.
And now for the definition of an optimist – my son returned from
his Navy trip and cheerfully told me he’d got the prize for being sick the
most often. Only an optimist could turn irrepressible seasickness into
something to be proud of.
And back to the Trekkies – I’m continuing the Star Trek theme this
week so look out for Klingons off the starboard bow.

Tea, Earl Grey,
Hot!
In Star Trek Next Generation Jean-Luc
Picard (French but inexplicably with a perfect English accent) was
admirably played by Patrick Stewart.
I was once lucky enough to see Patrick at a
conference; he was one of the speakers giving an inspirational talk. He
held the stage as befits a Royal Shakespeare Company actor and commander
of the USS Enterprise. (I didn’t think any one could better him, but the
next keynote speaker did pretty well, too.*)
But the thing I remember about Patrick
Stewart in Star Trek was his taste in tea. I almost can’t ask for Earl
Grey in a restaurant without asking for “Tea, Earl Grey,
hot”.
So what has Earl Grey got to do with
dieting and slimming?
Earl Grey is a classic, delicately perfumed
tea that is best drunk without milk and sugar. If you drink Earl Grey
instead of your usual cuppa you’ll save yourself a few calories over the
course of the day. If you have the Earl Grey instead of cappuccino you
could easily save yourself a few hundred calories!
And by making these small consistent
changes you’ll have an easy reduction in your calorie intake. Small
consistent steps are the best ways to weight loss and taking the milk out
of your tea or the cream out of your coffee is an easy way of doing this.
Think of it – 100 calories a day less is 10 pounds of fat per year less.
And all you have to do is drink tea!
If Earl Grey doesn’t appeal (I know it’s
not everyone’s cup of tea) try a herb tea or fruit tea. You can find these
in the speciality tea section of the supermarket. Just make sure it’s a
tea without added sugars or sweeteners. You can make the teas quite dilute
so that they’ll help keep you hydrated in the summer.
And step-by-step you can make a change to
help your figure and your health.

About Liz
I have
been looking after people’s health for over fifteen
years.
With a background in biochemistry I was initially interested in how
to boost metabolism to promote weight loss and how to feel satisfied after
eating – what the nutritionists call “satiety”. All of these things
are important for weight loss but for many people the biggest change comes
about when they conquer their emotional eating.
I know this because as a child I was stocky, and then became chubby,
then fat! I hated exercise and loved food. And my love of food went way
beyond physical hunger.
I still love food, but now I know how to enjoy and how
to set limits around it – all without feeing deprived.
With a training in coaching and NLP as well as my knowledge of
biochemistry and nutrition, I am ideally placed to solve your problems
with emotional eating.
Liz’s credentials…
- Degree in Natural Sciences from the University of Cambridge (that’s
where I get my biochemistry knowledge).
- Degree in Nutritional Therapy (that’s where the nutrition knowledge
comes from).
- Module leader in Masters Level Module Tackling Obesity at the
Centre for Nutrition Education & Lifestyle Management. On this
module I lecture on the biochemistry of eating and starvation, satiety
mechanisms, stress and obesity and emotional eating.
- Fifteen years experience as a herbalist and health coach.
- Practitioner level qualification in NLP, Coaching and Stress
Management.
And, most importantly, a love of food and a passion for health,
wellness and vitality!
