Weight loss coaching with
Claire Bradford - Life Coach in Sussex

Free monthly weight loss support conference calls

The aim of these informal monthly calls is to get support and motivation from each other, swap ideas/tips/recipes, set personal goals related to health, weight and wellbeing, discuss answers to some juicy coachy questions I'll be throwing in along the way and, most importantly, laugh together.

Callers will be able to share as much or as little about their situation as they wish, and the idea is that it will be an opportunity to get mutual support without the inconvenience/tedium/potential embarrassment of going to a traditional 'diet club'.

We don’t promote any particular diet, pill or potion, so people doing DIY healthy eating, Atkins, WeightWatchers etc are all welcome.

Those taking part are encouraged to set themselves a personal goal for the month ahead, which can be as simple as amount of weight to be lost or tackling an issue which leads them to eat in the first place.

There is a choice of a morning or evening call - you are most welcome to join us on either. Email or call for the details of the next call.

How to join in the conference call

1. The call works on what's called a 'bridge' line, in America, so first I recommend you sign up to one of the various discount call providers who charge 1p or 2p per minute for calls to the States (this is all fairly pain free and quick). Try www.18866.co.uk or www.telediscount.co.uk.

2. After entering the code for your discount call provider, dial 001 413 200 7075.

3. When prompted for the access code, dial 913 422 followed by the "# hash" key.

4. Please announce yourself, you're in the conference call!

I look forward to speaking to you soon.

Some comments about my monthly weight loss support conference calls:

“I took part in Claire's second call, wanting to lose about 3 kg which seems to have become a permanent attachment over the last couple of years and is slowing me down on the squash court.

Following that one session, among other things I've shifted a long-held habit. I'd convinced myself long ago that whenever I have a cup of tea or coffee I "have" to eat something with it - usually a sticky bun, a cake or a biscuit (more like half a pack). So in the call I took on a commitment to have a liquid-only beverage at least once a week - and in fact in the last week I've done it several times.

Now if I can shift that one, then what else....?

There's something special about Claire's style and approach. In particular she has a gentleness, perceptiveness and understanding which combine to get great results.

I intend to be on the next call with Claire, even if I've met my weight target by then (which I'm on track to do), because there are some other eating habits I want to make permanent changes to.

So will you join us?”
