Tips for Eating to Support Recreational Activity
1. Planning ahead
It mightened seem obvious but writing a food and gear list is essential – it was something Sir Edmund Hillary excelled at:

- how many mouths are you catering for?

After suffering stomach cramps, diarrhoea and significant weight loss for over 12 months, I was feeling anxious and needed some help. I found Cathy's telephone number in a healthy eating magazine and made a call that made a huge difference to my life.
I am so grateful to Cathy for her help. I have learnt so much about food and now feel that I am equipped with the tools to make the necessary adjustments to my diet if I find a certain food isn't agreeing with me. Best of all, I feel as though I have regained my equilibrium.

I first visited Cathy in September 2014, after a referral from my doctor to see if dietary changes rather than medication could improve some health concerns. From the very first consultation, Cathy was professional, pragmatic, compassionate and supportive.
I recall her words, ‘There’s no such thing as right food or wrong food, we’re here to work out which foods work best for you’.
After three months, all the health indicators in the ‘concerning’ range were either within or close to ‘normal’ range.
After six months, my biological age had reduced by 11 years – I’m now 5 year’s younger biologically than my ‘real’ age!
After nine months with Cathy, I’m now happy, healthy, vibrant, 20 kgs lighter and thoroughly enjoying my improved lifestyle.
