How Drusilla released around two stone and changed her relationship with food

Drusilla had released weight before, but she had never found a reliable way to maintain the change. Sugar cravings, binge eating and difficult patterns around food had followed her for much of her life, leaving her feeling that food was still in control.

Through Sue’s 90 Day Health Transformation programme, Drusilla released around two stone and developed a more confident, practical approach to food. She has stayed below her original weight and continues to use the habits and strategies she learnt.

Years of difficult patterns around food

Before working with Sue, Drusilla described herself as being on an upward weight trajectory. She had experienced sugar urges and binge eating, and felt that her relationship with food was affecting her happiness and possibly her joints.

Previous weight loss programmes had left her focused on calories without giving her an effective way to maintain her results. She wanted to understand her eating habits and feel more in control of the choices she was making.

Learning to make different choices

As a Health Transformation and Food Relationship Coach, Sue helped Drusilla understand her habits gradually and reflect on what was influencing her choices.

The practical guidance was particularly useful. Recipes such as Sue’s seed crackers gave Drusilla realistic alternatives, while the group sessions provided advice, encouragement and ideas she could use in everyday life.

Her awareness of sugar and ultra-processed foods increased, and her tastes began to change. Fruit became filling and enjoyable, and she started eating more salads, vegetables and raw foods.

Around two stone released

Drusilla’s results include:

  • Around two stone (28lb or 13kg) weight loss
  • Greater control over sugar cravings
  • More confidence in her food choices
  • A new enjoyment of fruit, salads, vegetables and raw foods
  • Greater awareness of sugar and ultra-processed foods
  • Habits she can return to when she needs more structure

Practical strategies that have continued

Drusilla still uses the principles she learnt to guide her eating and help her feel more positive and in control. Drinking water, recognising hidden sugar and understanding ultra-processed foods have become part of the way she approaches her health.

She has also developed strategies for meals out, holidays and occasions when tempting foods are around. These give her a practical way to respond without returning to the calorie-focused approach she had experienced in the past.

Drusilla on Sue’s support

“Sue clearly plans her coaching sessions carefully, gives everyone in a group proper time and attention, and spends a lot of time understanding the needs of each client and participant.

“She is excellent at digging down into clients’ problems, really hearing what they have to say and coming up with something they want to try. This includes setting personal challenges and coping strategies. Everyone in a session gets time to check in.”
