What my clients say

Sarika has been superb. I have several decades of bad eating habits to rectify and set in place good habits going forward. I have got an eating programme that I find easy to follow and I don't miss anything. Thank you so much Sarika..you are tops!

Sarika has been a huge support. Professional, calm, thorough and able to scientifically investigate and get to the bottom of things to help determine a previously undiagnosed issue. Lots of helpful suggestions were provided and with a positive approach at all times.

Would happily recommend Dietitian Fit to anyone who has lost hope of managing their weight . Sarika was absolutely brilliant and helped me to achieve exactly what I set to achieve. It's been genuinely life changing

Sarika has been fantastic in supporting my very successful weight loss journey. She has been informative and I have learned so much from her. Most importantly, however, she has been my champion whilst gently holding me to account. A life-changing experience for me; thank you so much!

I was introduced to Dietitian Fit and Co by my son. I as very apprehensive about this, I felt it was just another instant gratification form of losing weight, for a lot of money. Having tried tried 'Lighter Life, skipping meals, and weight watchers to no avail. How wrong was I. I had numerous food issues and bad habits from years of incorrect information, I had been overweight for over 15 years. I began my journey, knowing it would not be easy, however, I was mentally ready to begin May 2023 I began with Sarika at 15.4lbs she taught me new skills and coping mechanisms. The main break through was retraining my brain to eat when I was stressed, and not to gorge when I was not anxious. It was a battle for me changing these bad habits However with Sarka support, and sometimes that was outside of pre arranged meeting times with her I was able to stay strong and focused. Having re learnt how to eat healthy, six months later I now weigh 13.6lbs. I have become totally empowered and determined in my personal transformation and I know that I will achieve my goal of reaching 12. stone .

With the guidance of Sarika I have been able to relearn my approach to food and by making a series of small changes I am able now to identify my specific triggers that contribute to my weight gain. I have been able to find strategies to combat these and I now feel like I am able to deploy these when I am in my home or in work or socialising. This sounds like it is easy and logical and on a basic level it should be, but when you are unlocking years of embedded behaviours, it is not and I could not have altered my mindset without her help and support. I am fully committed to this long term approach.

Sarika has made such a difference to my life. She's developed a new eating plan for me that is interesting, effective and easy to follow. It has sorted out the issues I had with abdominal pain and frequent bouts of diarrhoea so I can go about my daily life without worrying about being away from home. Thank you so much Sarika.

I cannot thank Sarika enough for everything she taught me over last 6 months! I was on every possible diet, going around circles, starving myself, losing weight and gaining it back constantly. Every shake to my daily routine meant a failure with my food habits. Now i have learnt and continue to practice intuitive eating- I eat everything i want, enjoy my holidays, and love my new way of living! I am not on diet anymore; I finally just live my life with no suffering and no guilt. I am in control and understand one mistake doesn’t override my success. I lost nearly 13kg in last 6m and looking forward to continuing my journey! Thank you for literally changing my whole life! Can’t recommend Sarkia enough, her constant support and availability means so much to me and i couldn’t have achieved all these on my own! Thank you! Xx

I just wanted to say another huge thank you for all the kindness, positivity, superb knowledge and support you've given me to lose weight, get healthier and have more energy. As I said I feel happier and much more positive going forwards that I've got the tools I need to lose a little more and maintain the weight loss you have helped me achieve. Losing weight with you hasn't been a chore and I feel like I have a whole new mindset to food. Thank you so much Sarika xxx

I lost 22kg over a 10 month period but I was confused about introducing carbs back into my meals. Working with Sarika has truly transformed my health and my confidence to another level, but more importantly, I gained a real understanding of how my body works. Before this journey, I was confused about carbohydrates — which ones to eat, how much to have, and how to prevent the blood sugar spikes that left me feeling drained and hungry.Rather than simply giving me a plan, she has educated me. I’ve learned how to balance meals properly, pair carbohydrates to reduce sugar spikes, and move away from fear or restriction. For the first time, I felt in control instead of overwhelmed.Her approach went beyond food. She explained the connection between stress, sleep, mindset and weight, helping me understand how the body and mind work together. That insight alone was life-changing. Proper ‘lightbulb’ moments.She also encouraged sustainable habits, such as walking with light weights to build muscle tone and support metabolic health. These practical changes have strengthened me physically and mentally.I am incredibly proud of losing 22kg, but what matters most is the knowledge and calm I now have around food. The tools she has given me will stay with me for life.I always look forward to sessions with Sarika and to learning more at each and every one. I am 69 and have never felt fitter in body, mind and soul.

Amazing, feeling very supported. My sessions with Sarika have been exactly what I needed to help me turn my health problems around. The right combination of scientific explanations supportive language and helpful planning. I really feel like she understood my issues and helped me to plan a healthier diet based around my life and my needs. Fully recommend.

Janet E.

★★★★☆

The advice is very encouraging and you're not put under any pressure. The adviser is informative with useful ideas I found it useful, if a little expensive. However the sessions were accomodating so plenty of time to fit in to your schedule.

Sarika was a wonderful guide to getting my nitrician and diet back on track or rather on track fir the first time! I have bags more energy and have maintained my target weight - both goals starting out on the 3 month programme. So much of it is about changing your attitudes and behaviours to food, finding healthy habots and choices that match your own personal preferences and operating system (I'm not a great planner). Sarika is non-jugdmental and works with you at your own pace, she's also friendly and personable and always on the ball, She's motivating and encouraging and adapts her advice to your lifestyle easily, she knows her stuff. I feel I have knowledge and tips that are now embedded for maintaining health long-term. Highly recommend!

Reema provided personalised and clear information. Lots of detailed feedback and very refreshing not to be advised to cut out lots of food. A real focus on portion sizes and the content of meals led to gradual weight reduction and improved blood pressure.

Reema provided a lot of great advise and clearly knows her stuff. She was very responsive to all my questions. Would highly recommend

I am waiting on a hip operation and because my mobility was very poor could not exercise. Reema was great explaining a lot of things about food in general. Was very poor at finding something that worked and sticking to that. Reema gave me loads of things I could replace things with. I also started cooking again and made curries ang con carne among other things. In total I lost about 5 stone (still more to lose). Was wary at the beginning because of the price but worth every penny. Could not have done it without the monthly zoom meetings with Reema. Again thanks for all your help Reema.

The support I received from Reema was outstanding, I feel confident I can continue eating healthier & put the advice she has given me to good use. Worth every penny.

Sara B.

★★★★★

I really needed to rethink my approach to food and eating and I found Reema at just the right time. My goal was not specifically to lose weight (which I did anyway) but it was to reframe my relationship with food so that I could continue eating in a healthy and satisfactory way going forwards, not just for the period of a "diet". I am delighted with the results and the support I received. Highly recommended. I love that you can also find the right person to help you, tailored to your needs!

I had spent years trying to find a way to loose weight and being able to maintain it. There’s so many different fads and plans you just get lost!! Who knew with a little education on food and lots of support from a lovely lady this could be the beginning of a life changing experience. Reema honestly changed my relationship with food, the way I saw it as sometimes I saw food as good and bad, making myself feel guilty if I wanted to eat something I fancied because I classed it as being bad! No food is ever bad, food is food!! I have lost the weight I intended but I’ve also lost sight of that as it’s been more of a life change I know longer care about the weight just how I feel. Because of this lovely lady and this amazing company I feel great!!!

★★★★★

After so many years of yo-yo dieting and trying every diet trend under the sun, I soon realised each with their individual rules completely distorted my relationship towards food. I used to label food good/bad, binge on weekends and deprive myself during the week, and eat based on my emotions. I had a really unhealthy relationship with food but after my 3 months program with Reema, I am not only more aware of what my body needs to thrive but i no longer feel that guilt I used to get when I ate something “bad”. For the first time I’ve practiced enjoying everything in moderation and an added bonus has been the weight loss. The support I received was unbelievable and worth every penny. I can’t thank Reema enough - she is amazing.

Naomi was my dietician and was really helpful in identifying the causes of my bowel issues. Attentive in conversation as well as tracking my progress with good feedback. Available for any questions in between appointments too

Laura

★★★★★

To me, it was not about learning what to eat but rather about the way I eat and how I control my emotional eating. I made great progresses and life changing choices and I have to thank Reema for this.

Simran G.

★★★★★

Not only have I lost 10kg in 4 months, but I did it without dieting, and I feel more energised than ever and I finally understand how my body and brain work! I have learned so much with Reema! Such a great dietitian! Thank you so much, you have changed my life for good!
