Client Testimonials

The Louise Parker Program is just what I needed.  It is simple, logical and provides all of the tools for your success.  I looked forward to my weekly call.  Not only did it provide support during my journey, but Cassie gave insight into the reasons behind so much of my past behavior.  I would recommend the program to anyone serious about transforming their life!

When I first picked up Louise’s book I had been on and off various diets since I was about 16. The gorgeous food and exercise in the Louise Parker Method seemed imminently do-able but what really rang true for me was the idea that this was not something to be done once, but to be weaved into the fabric of my daily life. I find Louise has a way with words that is really captivating, so that just thinking the words ‘Vitality Smoothie’ would make me feel energised and positive about making myself a lovely snack.

By Christmas of that year I had done my first ‘Transform’ and dropped a dress size. But while the new clothes were lovely, what was truly fabulous was my change in perspective. Sure, I had enjoyed plenty of worth-its over the holidays and as a result I was the left with a little extra padding but I didn’t have the usual crushing New Year panic thoughts of ‘how am I going to lose this weight?’  I just happily and easily stepped back into my new lifestyle. I found I had really weaved beautiful eating and movement into my daily routine and was now the sort of person who got annoyed if the rain meant we couldn’t do the school run on foot. Within a week or so my jeans slid on just as easily as before.

I decided to do another six week transform, this time with the help of the wonderful and very lovely Lydia at the Walton Street clinic. It was incredible what I could do with the extra coaching, motivation and accountability she provided. We could really focus on the areas that I struggled with and address them together. I found it difficult to visualise success but Lydia taught me that people process information differently and the positive affirmations she helped to write were a real game changer.  By the end of another six weeks I was delighted to see a big drop in body fat percentage with not one ounce of muscle mass lost. I couldn’t recommend the Method and the whole team at Louise Parker enough.

I am thrilled with the results from working with LP and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Ariana was fantastic and a delight to work with. I was unfit, not my healthiest and had put on 10kgs  over 5 years of menopause which I believed would be impossible to lose and keep off whilst still in menopause and juggling parenting, a busy job and lots of travel. Having completed the programme I am healthy and feel great. I have embedded good habits, lost and kept the weight off, am fit and toned and most importantly have significantly improved my vitality, physical strength and energy level. Thank you!

Having struggled for years with my body, Alejandra, my LP dietician helped me find myself again. Alejandra was critical in my journey. She educated me in all things nutrition and coached me every step of the way. For me, the four pillars were revelationary. By removing the focus from pure ‘weight loss’ to overall well-being the journey became enjoyable, and a rather self indulgent process, with incredible side effects. I felt like a new woman after only a few weeks and was able to balance my hectic travel and work schedules to make it work for me. There were no major sacrifices but I learnt a new way of doing things, building new habits, with the end goal of long term health. I was never very overweight but needed to find balance in my life and I wanted to feel the best version of myself as I approached my wedding. I dropped 7lbs in my first 2 weeks, and then steadily continued to lose weight thereafter in a healthy and sustainable way. Louise Parker helped me feel my fittest and healthiest for my wedding day and I am eternally grateful. It was truly a worthy investment in myself. I can also attest to the fact it really is easy to maintain once you end the programme, the new habits become part of your daily rituals & fluctuating weight a thing of the past! Thank you Alejandra & team LP for all of your support.

As a vegetarian I really struggled with balancing my diet, and what I thought I was getting right, was actually making me gain weight! I poured hours into the gym and into eating ‘clean’ but I seemed to the achieve the opposite of what I had set out to do. I felt I’d lost my way. Dead against ‘diets’ and raised to enjoy all food in moderation, Louise Parker was the only wellness and nutrition expert I could find that matched most closely the values I associated with healthy eating. My dietician Ariana is literally one of my favourite people! She has delved into each facet of my lifestyle with wisdom, compassion and patience. She has met me where I was at and walked the journey with me – always supporting and encouraging, working with me, giving of her time selflessly, and challenging me where I needed it. I have always left her office feeling inspired and confident. And I look forward to my Louise Parker appointments because of her. I now love the way I eat, and I feel confident that’s it’s good for me and balanced too. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough!

Even before I picked up the phone to enrol on one of the programmes I was a huge fan of the Louise Parker Method! I had both her books, and read everything that was written about her in magazines etc.

The first thing I liked was the fact that it isn’t a ‘diet’ – it’s a whole lifestyle, and rebuilds your habits to what Louise calls ‘a new normal’ – I had spent my life struggling with my weight and yo-yo-ing up and down, and was sick of it, so I reckoned a new normal where that didn’t happen was the answer!

From my first appointment ‘behind the orange door’ I was so motivated and inspired – I was given my instructions and recipes tailored to help me lose weight and lots of tips to help me follow them.

My dietitians were very kind and encouraging – I’m sure they have seen every shape and size there is, and heard every excuse under the sun too! The nutrition side of things was made so easy to follow, and I didn’t get hungry which was a bonus! As for exercise, I was encouraged to do more of it, and when my muscle mass started to increase, and my weight decrease, I was hugely motivated to do more and more!

The most important pillar is Thinking Successfully – maybe surprisingly the most tricky to get right! It can be easy to become discouraged, and actually this is where signing up to do a programme works so well – having someone at the end of the phone or email, and also going up to Walton Street regularly just sorts everything out in your mind and keeps you on the straight and narrow!

Following the Living Well pillar, I did loads of decluttering and reorganisation in my house too, which looks all the better for that!

It has been an immensely pleasurable and instructive experience – it really changed the way we eat at home, and the way I choose from a menu when we’re in a restaurant – and I would unhesitatingly recommend the Method to anyone.

After three years living in a foreign country where exercise was nigh-on impossible and the diet was heavy on oil, I needed a complete reboot – I felt bloated and tired. On my return to the UK I embarked with trepidation on the 6-week programme with Louise Parker and started visiting for appointments each week. I stuck to the programme, never felt hungry and the weight fell off despite the fact that an injury kept me away from boosting my activity levels..My trepidation receded and I extended to 12 weeks. Weight loss was satisfying but this programme is so much more than that. My consultant, Lydia, helped me to learn a new approach to providing my body with what it needs while avoiding the food groups that sap energy. She was a steadfast companion who guided me through a number of valuable lessons. I learnt that even when travelling for work I was able to find ways to nourish myself better than in the past. I learnt the remarkable impact of stress and pain as I literally saw my body turn muscle into fat. Most of all I have developed a sustainable, healthy eating plan that will last into the future. A few weeks after the end of the 12 weeks I no longer feel guilty about that slice of gooey chocolate cake as I trust myself to get back on plan and to stay there most of the time. While the investment is significant, I would thoroughly recommend this programme to people who feel that their relationship with food is out of whack and who need to be guided back onto a path that can fit into a busy modern life without the need for deprivation.

In 2017, completely fed up with dieting and watching the scales bounce around, I completed my first round of Transform. With my new habits, my new body and the Louise Parker Method having changed everything about my life, when I got engaged earlier this year I knew I needed to do another round of Transform to prepare for my wedding. It wasn’t about the weight this time, but about being the best version of myself. I can honestly say I am the healthiest I have ever been! My weight has found it’s happy place and my body has never looked better, but above all I feel so much more confident in myself as I approach my wedding day. The weekly check-ins with Nicola kept me sane and helped me to stay focused on my goals. I received so much information and support during the 12 weeks that there is no way I would have survived planning a wedding without the Louise Parker Method. Thank you!

I contacted Louise Parkers team after reading Louise Parker’s book ‘Lean for Life’. Her approach to healthy living really appealed to me but I felt I needed some extra guidance to implement it.  I signed up for the 12 week transform programme and lost more weight (mostly fat and gains in muscle) than I ever have before (8 kgs), having previously followed what seems like every faddy diet going! The service and support offered is brilliant and I have successfully changed my lifestyle, adopting a healthier, balanced and practical approach to exercise, food and managing stress which I feel I can maintain for many years to come. Louise Parker and her team are wonderful and the support is well worth the investment. Never again will I resort to a faddy diet or extreme exercise regime. I highly recommend this service.

I’ve always struggled with my weight and have tried so many different diets and juice fasts but the weight would always come back on. This time it has stayed off. The plan is simple yet highly effective, I’ve lost 10kg and kept it off. Nothing is off limits, you just learn how to eat well and look after yourself. Amelie has been amazing at keeping me on track, I could not have done this without her; and this has all been achieved whilst changing jobs and recovering from knee surgery. I can’t recommend the programme highly enough.

I cannot recommend the Louise Parker Transform Programme highly enough. It is absolutely life changing and provides the tools needed to live a healthier happy lifestyle.

Ultimately, whether the Louise Parker method works for you will depend on you. To your commitment to the process, to your desire to change your habits, to your willpower and determination. The method itself and your consultant dietitian will give you everything you need: a framework to change your lifestyle, your body shape, your relationship to food and exercise. If you commit to it, you will succeed.

The beauty of the method is that it’s logical and straight forward. When you first read the guides, it will make sense and that’s very useful as there are so many theories and fads in this area, sometimes it”s difficult to make sense of the options. The structure of the program also works well, with weekly weigh ins and discussions with your consultant who can explain your progress, answer questions and help solve issues. Reshma was always helpful, always encouraging and – weirdly – I ended up wanting to please her as much as anything. (more…)

Amelie & the team at Louise Parker have done more than help me lose weight – they’ve helped me make critical changes to my lifestyle and habits – changes that I can adopt for the rest of my life that will stop me ever needing to go on a stupid diet again. I’d recommend them to anyone who’s interested in learning a better way of eating and exercising. I’m so grateful for everything they have taught me and the supportive way they’ve gone about it.

I never thought that it would work but it did! The support the team give you is incredible and make you realise that you are in charge of your own destiny and that every bit of food does count. I had been in denial for years about my diet and constantly ‘forgetting’ food I ate and thinking it didn’t count.

Louise Parker has made me realise and be aware of everything I eat but in a good way. The feeling of eating well far outweighs that packet of Haribo. She also spends time looking at triggers and why we eat the way we do. This has been a really helpful tool so rather than feel guilty you have to ask yourself why you did it, what made you reach for the Percy Pigs. I would highly recommend this method.

Having struggled with my weight for my entire adult life I initially started following the Louise Parker Method via her books. As my journey continues I wanted to consolidate what I had learnt and work more on all four pillars of the plan to ensure that I do reach my goal and never go back to where I was. My dietician, Katie, was excellent and tailored each session precisely to my needs. I feel that my time on the program has really helped to embed the habits and that I am now in a good place to continue until I reach my goal. I’ve now lost 5 stone but more importantly I lead a fit, healthy and active life and food is now just food, not an emotional crutch or a source of comfort.

Can’t recommend the Louise Parker Method highly enough.

If you’re on the fence…just do it. The team are super friendly, the advice expert and the recipe book and tips huge. Don’t expect to change without some effort, planning and discipline yourself but if you put that in you will transform! I’m excited to see how much further towards my goal I can get on the plan and it has truly changed my habits and outlook for good…I can still have my daily treats, not just weekly, and enjoy greedy life to its fullest but in a new and energising way now. I have learned more than I thought, already being a keen cook and knowledgeable on basic nutrition and fitness, which has been eye opening and money well spent.

In the past few years I have been putting on weight despite regular exercise and relatively clean eating habits. I got worried that what used to work in the past didn’t work now. The programme has done two things for me 1) it has changed my life in terms of how I look and feel 2) it has equipped me with the knowledge and capability to stay healthy.

The fact that there are no gimmicks, no meals to purchase, and no pills/supplements to take is huge. It seems like a whole new world has opened up to us. I think one of the best things is that very few things are off limits, it’s more about finding a way to eat them differently and some things not as often.

The main aim of my 6 week programme was to gain more energy and feel confident that I am eating a well-balanced diet. I have thoroughly enjoyed my programme and I have learned so much and created new habits for life. It has been worth the investment in myself as I can now confidently cook for myself and go out and dine knowing that I am following a balanced diet which is meeting all of my needs. My nutritionists have been amazing, passing all of their knowledge on to me and always available on the phone or by email. My weight loss has been an added bonus and as I enter into my maintenance phase, I am being fully supported to show me how to add in my ‘worth its’, whilst maintaining my goals. Thank you so much to the Louise Parker team for this fantastic experience and I would highly recommend you.

After completing the 12 week Transform Programme, my attitude towards food has completely changed. I now enjoy eating healthy ‘real food’ and find that I can rarely manage to eat all the snacks as well as the meals. My dietician has been invaluable in helping me to make the right choices and has given me the confidence to continue to follow the plan and lose more weight. Thank you all so much.

I just wanted to say a heartfelt thanks for all you guys do and for following your calling and purpose in bringing freedom to many women and little old me. I reckon you guys are stealth little jails breakers, breaking women free all over the world from the bondage of dieting and self obsessions and self loathing. Getting a great routine and my health back has meant that I’ve had loads of energy and never had my mind freed up to think about other things. Thanks for doing what you do so well, thanks for not giving up on women and believing for so much more then what we settle for and thanks for working so hard to jailbreak people out of their prisons.

As a serial dieter since the age of 16 (I’ve tried everything without much success), I can truly say that I feel I’ve found the ‘plan for life’. I’ve loved the warm and kind support from the lovely Amelie, and every visit to the orange door has felt like an investment in myself. So if you are wondering if this is the right programme for you or if its worth the money, all I can say is that it will be the last time you’ll need to lose weight. It will just be how you eat forever and live forever more.

On the face of it, losing weight should be easy – eat less. But we all know it’s a lot more complex than that. So I approached the Optimum Weight Loss Programme like many others – with a degree of scepticism. Then I met Alejandra. She quickly got the measure of me. I realised that this was going to be a very professional and expert approach to me, my lifestyle and my nutrition. When faced with the choices I would have to make it was daunting – Alejandra dealt with my resistance calmly and worked with me on how to make changes in how and what I eat. (more…)

When I signed up for the programme, I was ready for some change. But little did I know how much change I was about to experience! The results have been impressive. After 8 weeks on the programme I felt amazing: the weight loss coupled with the diet gave me loads of energy. A reshaped and toned body thanks to the training sessions meant I regained confidence. I can’t thank enough the whole team at Louise Parker!

I was a little nervous commencing my programme but I achieved unbelievable results immediately. With expert nutritional / lifestyle guidance and personal training I’ve been able to get steady and consistent weight loss and a body changing outcome. I’ve regained my confidence, wearing great clothes and am enjoying a social life once again. Most importantly I feel fit and healthy for the first time in ages. I can’t thank the team enough for helping me get ‘me’ back. I couldn’t have done it without them.

The weight loss and increased strength and tone were great external changes, but the change that made me feel really different was the increased energy, positive change in mood, and skill set for living healthily in the future. My trainer was superb; just the right mix of expertise, motivation and support. How he got me through 24 workouts in six weeks whilst managing an existing injury is testament to his skill and experience. My Dietitian provided great advice and support for the other elements of the programme, meaning that I felt supported throughout. Completing the intensive was a tough ask for me, but the support from Louise Parker’s teams combined with my perseverance provided unbelievable results. I can’t recommend the programme highly enough.

Having seen my weight fluctuate over the years and having reached the big 50 I was really looking for sensible diet advice that worked. A couple of friends recommended the Louise Parker Method to me so I decided to give it a go. I was not disappointed! Gently guided by the wonderful Amelie, I lost a stone in weight and am now in a size 8 for the first time in years. Amelie was a charming and knowledgeable support who made it all very easy to understand and who encouraged me throughout the 12 week programme. I can’t recommend highly enough the principles Louise Parker espouses. If you want to lose weight ,and keep it off, in a simple and effective way then this is the right step for you.

After years of trying numerous high profile ‘diets’, I found that I was still putting on weight so knew I need to take control of my eating habits before I turned 40!! I had been following Louise for 2 years on Instagram and she had always been supported so signing up to the program was a very easy decision.

The program enabled me to continue with a busy lifestyle, knowing that I had the support of Amelie at the end of the phone/email whenever I needed it and she was prepared to keep me in the right direction if a started to stray. Being a vegetarian, mum of 4 and working full time with extensive travel – I couldn’t recommend this program enough and my new habits will last a lifetime.

My biggest concern was that this would just be ‘another diet’ and that I would be wasting my time and money! As I had not succeeded with diets in the past, I was skeptical that anything ever would work, but I was desperate to lose weight so decided to give it a go.

The program was great from the very start. Anna was amazing, so friendly and put me at ease straight away – she understood and addressed all my concerns and was more than happy to answer all my questions (in some cases over and over again until I understood fully)! (more…)

I did not think that at my age (63) my life could be transformed by a combination of diet and regular support from a dietitian. Over the last nine months, under the guidance of Louise Parker and with sympathetic and encouraging support from Alejandra, I’ve lost almost three stones in weight (all fat!), learnt what to eat and when to eat and I’m fitter and happier than I’ve ever been.

Going on the programme really was life-changing, physically but also mentally. A lifestyle change apprenticeship more than a diet. I got amazing support from my Dietitian and not only learnt about the inner workings of my body, but rediscovered flavours and taste, while changing the shape of my body quite seamlessly. I feel well-equipped to carry on the journey by myself, and now I understand how my body works and how to regulate it, I can’t imagine ever going back!

When I signed up for the programme, I was ready for some change. But little did I know how much change I was about to experience! The results have been impressive. After 8 weeks on the programme I felt amazing: the weight loss coupled with the diet gave me loads of energy. A reshaped and toned body thanks to the training sessions meant I regained confidence. I can’t thank enough the whole team at Louise Parker!

Jo is a delight – engaging, enthusiastic, genuine and able to convey the inevitability of success as a scientific certainty of the approach. I have found she has kept me focused and positive. I’ve never seen myself adhere to programme so well and seen consistent weight loss week in and week out.

Catherine you have a natural gift for what you do. Changing people’s lives is no small feat. I think it’s easy for people to underestimate how much energy and commitment you have to give to invest yourself so much in your client’s well being and success. When we first met I didn’t think it was possible any longer to regain control of my weight and frantically improve how I felt about my body. I learn something valuable every time we meet.

Food on the programme was delicious and doable for a busy, working mum. It didn’t feel like I was punishing myself and it the programme gave me a framework for life, rather then just a few weeks.

Something has changed in my body for sure but most importantly something huge has changed in my mind. When I first started my journey with Catherine I was keen to know how and when I would lose the weight. I didn’t think much about the pillars, or the recipes to be absolutely honest. However after the first week I saw the benefit of a structure, a framework, a new mindset and how the whole thing works. The weight comes off but the journey has been the true value for me – learning how to be more mindful of how my body reacts, what it needs, how it works. I treated my sessions as an opportunity to reflect and learn more about how to read myself. (more…)

Losing just over two stone (and taking five inches off my waist) is not the best thing about my sessions with Catherine (although they certainly come close!) The best thing is that I now know pretty much how to do this on my own. Thanks to Catherine and the LP way of doing things I understand my body better and the science behind how it responds to what I give it and how I treat it. I feel so much more connected with the physical me and this gives me a sense of control that I seemed to have lost. The biggest challenge was organising myself so that I had the best foods at hand both at home and work and carved out time to exercise. But with Catherine’s brilliant practical help and warm encouragement it’s become a habit.

“I find it actually super empowering for the first time in my life being able to manage my weight so well (…) but that’s only thanks to Cassie and the LP Programme. I am so grateful to all the things you’ve taught me. The LP method is just brilliant! I feel that I finally understand how to eat properly for the first time in my life.”

“Thank you so much for your support and helping me with my 12 week programme. I’ve learnt so much about myself and how capable I am of doing this.”

“My dietitians were extremely knowledgeable and supportive. I also loved how the recipe booklet had meals for all different occasions including hosting guests!”

“I love how well structured the programme is. It makes is clear and consistent and so easy to follow. The constant support is what really helps you nail the habits. I couldn’t believe how easy the programme was and how much I learnt about myself that has nothing to do with food. Everything about my life changed after doing the programme and the best bit is that it continues to change to be the life I want.”

“I just love Louise Parker and everything about it!”

“It was personal, dynamic, well paced and achievable.”

“I felt that everyone wanted to understand me in order to provide the best support possible so I could achieve my goals.”

I have genuinely been delighted with my decision to choose the Transform 12 Programme at Louise Parker.  This is definitely not a diet in the traditional sense, but a lifestyle change that encompasses far more than food and fitness (although with significant weight loss achievable, as I experienced), leaving you feeling fitter, healthier, and better able to handle all life throws at you. Read more…

This excellent programme has transformed my shape and my level of fitness. It exceeded my expectations and I am super happy with the results! Worth every penny.

After completing the Louise Parker’s Weight Loss Program with one of the team’s dietician, Amelie, I completely recommend this method to anyone looking for clarity and guidance on a balanced and healthy lifestyle. I had the most nurturing and nice experience with the team. I truly learned how to take care of myself and of my body. They gave me key guidelines to be used forever and apply them regularly to my life. I never felt on a ‘diet’ nor deprived of food nor left out of my social life due to the balanced and complete program they offer, which I keep on doing – as said its a lifestyle program which I loved. My quality of life definitely changed, since I started, for much better since I started feeling healthier and leaner while feeling more energetic and just overall better. I completely recommend the team and the program to anyone – this was truly life changing for me.

I have started the method because I wanted once and for all live a healthy life. There is no magic around the method, there are learnings, good structure and planning, tips and coaching. This is far away from a diet, it is a lifestyle. Amelie, my beloved coach, was inspiring, supportive and caring with me along the process. She taught me how to enjoy the whole process rather than constraining myself. I fully recommend the method and also the book where all the pillars of the method are explained (because it is not only about eating!)

It is now simply “the way we live” which is so sustainable for the long-term.
I would not have believed beforehand that I could actually eat more than before and lose weight quite so dramatically. My husband is also a total convert to your method too. I am so much stronger, leaner and fitter than I have ever been and for the first time in years am confident in my own body shape.”

“No matter how hard I tried I couldn’t shift the weight around my middle and it was making me miserable. Not only did my dietitian fully understand the nutritional needs of being a vegan but she also wholeheartedly supported my ethical choice. The food plan was not only incredibly easy to follow but I felt more invigorated and positive, in mind and spirit and the fat around my middle disappeared, before my very eyes!”

“Finally the focus wasn’t dieting — it was about being the best at living. I did the 12-week programme and I felt absolutely great. I had forgotten in thirty years of dieting how to just live. This isn’t a weight loss programme, it’s a life programme that helps busy people to LIVE beautifully — something that people forget.”
