At the age of 50 and weighing in excess of 16 stone, a chance meeting with Steve Hoyles of Hoyles Fitness gave me a life changing opportunity to lose weight and regain my fitness. I was impressed by Steve’s expertise and enthusiasm in his subject, and as a result I followed his advice to the letter.
Within a year I managed to lose four stone, and to reduce my bodyfat from 33% to under 15%. This was done through a combination of exercise and a complete change of diet. Although much of the contact with Hoyles Fitness was via the internet, I have also been fortunate to have had the opportunity to train under Steve’s direct supervision on three occasions.
A chance meeting with Steve has totally transformed my health and fitness and the way I think. Losing weight is not difficult. To maintain the weight loss means making lifelong changes in diet and activity – something which I hope is now a permanent part of my life.

After giving birth to my son, I carried about 2 stones of ‘baby weight’ that I wanted to lose.
I needed a simple plan that didn’t require complicated weighing of foods or points counting – I was a busy mum and didn’t have the time or energy for anything too complicated!
HoylesFitness has been fantastic. I followed the Handy Plan, and saw results very quickly. The diet is easy to follow and the exercise plans improved my fitness really quickly! I lost my ‘baby weight’ withing 8 weeks and have kept it off!
