“The IntaShape programme was initially taken on by Next Generation Club in Dartford in 2004 as part of our weight management course. The programme was so successful that it was introduced into all the Next Generation Clubs later that year. At the time I was health & fitness manager for Next Generation Club in Chorley and spent 3 years running the programme with great success. Many of our courses were fully booked in advanced. In 2007 I left Next Generation and was appointed as Group Fitness Manager for Stockport Leisure and I have now introduced the IntaShape programme into my weight management course in my centres. I have no hesitation in highly recommending the IntaShape programme.” Michaela Pennington (Group Fitness Manager Stockport Leisure)

“I have got to have been one of Eddie’s biggest challenges. My job is running pubs and restaurants and my lifestyle had lead me to become fat, unfit and just plain tired. And for the record I had been fat for nearly 20 years. What I liked about Eddie’s plan was that it was clear and simple. If I overeat and did the crime then in the gym I did the time. I know that this sounds mad but from November to February (yes including Christmas) I lost over 2 stone in fat and four inches off my waist. The bizarre thing is even with my lifestyle I have made it work and I know this sounds nuts but it was not even that difficult. And why you don’t feel hungry on this programme I don’t really know. I just do know that for me it really worked. Julian Leefe-Griffiths (Restaurateur)

Text message received after just 3 weeks on IntaShape

“Sorry had to tell you now. I tried those jeans that I have never been able to get on for 18 months. I have just tried them on and I was so, so shocked, they’re too big. Your programme is a bloody miracle thanks Eddie.”
Lisa Siketi (Beauty Therapist)

“I have been a gym member for seven years but I had lost focus and was now heavier than I had been in years. I started IntaShape because I needed to get motivated. In the first six weeks I have already lost 12 inches and 9 pounds. I am now eating healthier and feel better for it. I strongly recommend the IntaShape programme.”
Jo Robbins (Part time leader for Mencap, carer for my disabled mother-in-law.)

"The IntaShape Programme has really worked for me I have lost 9lbs and 8cm from my waist in just 6 weeks. The science is simple - a low fat intake mindset balanced with daily gentle exercise and a personal target to achieve. Coached by Eddie I have made a few simple changes to my lifestyle such as being aware of the fat content of foods, eating regularly through the day and being active for at least 50 minutes. I am now in Phase 2 of IntaShape and when I look in the mirror my body is changing shape and friends are beginning to notice the difference and say so too! I feel so much healthier and because of the visible reduction in my body fat and change to my body shape I know that the results are here to stay. IntaShape is a lifestyle programme and requires a personal commitment but it is so easy to achieve. Thanks Eddie for your genius - it is a great work!"
Anna Blackledge (Marketing Director & Mum)

I have never followed a dietary programme before but I did the IntaShape programme because I was interested to see if it would make a difference (to that 1/2 stone I wouldn't mind losing) and to experience the programme for myself, so I had more information when gym customers asked me about it. The dietary 'rules' were clear and simple to follow and confirmed what I already knew about eating healthily. The activity goals were not a problem, as I already exercised regularly but it did encourage me to work just that little bit harder! For me, the biggest focus was that I was accountable to Eddie! Where in the past I would have lost motivation and given up I was able to stick with it. I was really surprised at the results! In particular how much fat I had lost from all over my body, including my arms and legs. I am now in a position to speak from experience when I am asked about the IntaShape Programme in the gym. I recommend it to customers who are struggling to lose weight or who lack motivation.”
Alison Bovey (Gym Manager)

“I have been going to the gym an average of four times a week for 20 years trying to lose weight, without success. I started on IntaShape to give it a try. In the first six weeks I have lost a total of 8 inches and 8 pounds. If it had not been for IntaShape I would still be exercising without getting results. I really recommend you give IntaShape a try… you will be surprised and I am still following it.”
Chris Bradshaw(Lorry driver)

"I put on two stone after I gave up smoking nine years ago. I tried different diets and exercise plans and nothing actually kept me focused or motivated. When I started IntaShape I found the support sessions and the presentations invaluable. The book is a mind of knowledge and I use it constantly. In the first 12 weeks I have lost 11 inches and 11 pounds in fat mass, while still enjoying good food and several glasses of wine with the girls at the weekend.“
Louise Gurney (Care assistant)

“I joined my first gym two years ago to try to lead a healthier lifestyle. Even though I was going to the gym regularly, and thought I was eating a decent, healthy, balanced diet, I was not losing weight. In the first six weeks on IntaShape I lost 9 pounds and 8 inches. IntaShape is an easy, honest programme, which I continue to follow with brilliant results. I have lost a total of 5 inches from my waist alone and 20 pounds in weight.”

“I have thoroughly enjoyed following the IntaShape programme and even more delighted with my results. The programme is extremely easy to follow and teaches you to be self disciplined in a controlled and realistic way. IntaShape ensures that you balance what you are eating with the amount of exercise you take - a recipe that can't fail!”
Juliet Keeble

I used to be regular gym user and eat very healthily. I knew what I should be doing but stopped for personal reasons and found it difficult to start again. The IntaShape programme gave me the inspiration to get back on track and start doing the right things again.
Lynn Cherry (Administration & Resource Officer)

“Personally I feel I have made improvements to my overall health and fitness through a combination of being better informed about food and how to “use” it and how I can modify my lifestyle relatively easily in a sustainable way for the future. The social side of the programme at work does lead to a lot of discussion about food and healthy eating habits, it’s like being part of a club and everyone is encouraging each other. I would recommend the IntaShape programme to anyone”!
Miriam McCloskey BSc Hons (Technical Leader Lilly Pharmaceuticals Basingstoke)

“From the start, IntaShape has been easy to adjust to. I have rarely felt hungry, and have continued to enjoy eating and drinking as normal when at social occasions. The exercise has resulted in my feeling fitter and far less tired. When I started the programme Eddie described IntaShape as being a lifestyle rather than a diet. I would completely endorse that. I thoroughly recommend the IntaShape programme to anybody”
Celia Gregory

“After I had a major Operation I put on 12 KG (26LB). I needed some sort of incentive to lose this gain and also get my health and fitness back. When IntaShape came to the company I saw this as an opportunity and I signed up and started on the programme. I found what was on offer was great compared with other things I’ve seen or done. For example, the way that the programme took you through the fat content of foods to include not just certain fats but all fats. The way to monitor all activity not just special work outs you do. The most important thing was it wasn't’t forced on to you if you didn’t do well or you had an off week, but just worked through where I went wrong and options were given to me to improve. All the targets that have been set for me were made realistic. If I failed to meet these targets I wasn’t made to feel a failure, but given the encouragement to work harder to meet my target and more importantly given sensible ideas to achieve them. I would recommend IntaShape to anybody as we could all do with help and guidance; it’s where do you get good advice from that counts! IntaShape certainly helped and is continuing to help me.
Jean Foster (Secretary Aventis Pharmaceuticals Dagenham)

“My goals when I started the IntaShape programme were to improve my energy and fitness levels and lower my body fat. I was going through a very challenging time at work with a new system about to go live, combined with some uncertainty about my future. The weekly motivation sessions definitely helped to keep me focused and the IntaShape presentations filled a few gaps about healthy eating and better use on my lifestyle to get the results I wanted. In just three months I lost 22 inches in fat from my body and 20 pounds in weight. I know that both my fitness and energy levels have improved. The most impressive aspect is that 16 months on and I have got the balance right between eating healthily and letting my hair down. I keep up with my active lifestyle, which is good for my overall heath and the weight has stayed off.”
Elaine Adams (Group Leader Lilly Pharmaceutical Basingstoke)

“IntaShape gave me the kick-start I needed to start looking after myself after years of misuse and neglect!”
George Hook (Social Club Secretary Aventis Pharmaceuticals Dagenham)

“It is great to have found a simple eating and activity plan which is both easy to follow and fits into my normal daily routine. The programme encourages better eating and activity habits by giving daily and weekly targets which are very easy to monitor and achieve. I found that I didn’t have to make too many changes to get a great result and have recommended IntaShape to my friends”
Ann Percival (Accountant)

“With three children under six years old to chase after the IntaShape programme was just the kick-start I required to lose weight and regain some much-needed energy. The IntaShape programme was not complicated as I feared it might be and although some willpower is required my results were extremely impressive. I can now fit into clothes I last wore eleven years ago, although I’ve got a feeling fashions may have moved on a little since then. I now have more energy and boy do I need it! Kind regards & many thanks.
