I’m learning to cook again! So Live Lighter Sheffield is helping me gain confidence, improve my skills and steadily lose weight. I’d like to say a big thank you to Olivia for all her support.

Live Lighter Sheffield is helping me reset my thinking when it comes to healthy eating and helping me make better choices around food and nutrition. I’m already starting to see positive results.

The Zoom sessions have been very useful and informative and a lifeline to still feel connected and not 'forgotten' in the madness of the pandemic. I can’t thank the team enough for their support.
