Success

“With Tasmin’s expert knowledge and help I’ve recently completed a weight cut for powerlifting competing. I’m no lover of complicated meal planning and was so happy to find my nutrition plan very straight forward, enabling me to get the most out if my food at the times when I needed it. Proper food and plenty of it, tailored to my requirements. Tasmin has a holistic approach to nutrition and weight management and I would have no hesitation recommending her to others who are looking for evidence based, solid, common sense advice regarding nutrition.”

“Tasmin was fab from beginning to end. She listened to all my concerns, and didn’t hesitate to adapt the plan in both food preferences and what I was willing to commit to. This is someone who knows their stuff, but also know people and what life is actually like. She has a very realistic approach to get you to the goal you are trying to achieve. No bullshit, no sugar-coating, and no ridiculous expectations that would only set you back. Easy to follow macros, great meal ideas, and everything explained so you’re not wondering what the hell you signed up for. You are in good hands with Tas, I’m so grateful she took the time to help me.”

Currently entering my third month of working with Tas, and the entire process so far has been amazing. As someone whose biggest struggle has always been accountability, getting regular contact and assistance with whatever questions I have has made making previously confusing choices much easier. On top of that, until I started working with Tasmin, I didn’t really have any scope of how my diet was exacerbating my asthma, I just kind of cracked on and assumed that was my lot. I was severely mistaken. The fairly minor changes to my food choices has made a significant reduction in how often/ severe my flare ups are, which has improved my day to day stress significantly. As someone also in the fitness/health industry, I cannot recommend Tasmin enough.

I first approached Taz to give me help and advice as I needed to drop weight to compete in a powerlifting competition. She was super supportive and helped me to drop weight without losing any strength and gave me the confidence that I would be within my weight category on the day.

Taz gave me excellent advice on what my macros should be, after taking a thorough history and details of what I required giving me recipe ideas and always taking into account my lifestyle and my training requirements. She was great at keeping in touch, giving me advice on what to eat on competition day.

I continue to use Taz’s services as it is important to me that I keep as healthy as possible and I know that she will help me do this. I would certainly recommend Taz to anyone who as looking for a nutritionist. She is sympathetic to individuals lifestyles, keeping in touch to find out how you are doing and offering advice in a very non judgemental way. Even when I was struggling she was calm and gave me the confidence that I would get back on track. She is realistic that there are certain times when you go off plan, but she always helps me get back on plan without making me feel guilty about having a bit of a blip.

While I have been working with Taz I have managed to set a new Scottish deadlift record and definitely feel that I have my nutrition under control all with her help.

As someone who takes her nutrition seriously and has a fair amount of knowledge, one may ask why I’d need a nutritionist.

The truth is, I’ve learnt heaps from Tasmin’s approach. As her name suggests, the whole approach is highly realistic and sensible. I loved the fact she went into lots of detail when assessing my food diary and making recommendations. I’m a person who enjoys the detail but for those who find it overwhelming, she helpfully includes a short summary version.

I’ve found my sports performance has improved greatly which has made me very happy (I’m a powerlifter and also do freestyle wrestling and gymnastics.)
I also enjoyed the “no shaming” approach- one can be very honest if they have overindulged in the less nutritious stuff and she just helps you get back on track in a positive way.

I will continue to use Tasmin’s services in the future whenever I feel I need some extra support and accountability to keep my nutrition in check.
