"My struggle with weight issues has always made news. I had tried every diet going and read so many books on nutrition and exercise with little success. With the Take That Tour 2007 only six months away, I started working with James Lamper of WeightMatters with hopes that he could make me look and feel outstanding on the opening night. James' simple principles of weight management worked. I lost 25lbs (nearly 2 stone) and took 5 inches off my waist! My confidence and self-esteem soared, and the band became the face of M&S.

WeightMatters was so much more than just weight loss. It was about motivation and education – it made me accountable. James Lamper is professional, easy going and completely discreet and confidential. I would highly recommend WeightMatters 5-star service to anyone who wants to achieve their ideal weight."

"I was initially quite nervous about starting a program with WeightMatters - after all, sharing personal and sometimes embarrassing or painful details of one's life can be quite daunting, however within 5 minutes of starting my first session all my fears were wiped away. At WeightMatters I have found a safe, comfortable and strengthening environment in which to sort through my issues. Since working with James Lamper I have noticed a marked difference in my attitude and self-confidence, allowing me to get on with my life and not be held back by my size and body issues. I would thoroughly and without hesitation recommend WeightMatters to anyone who has ever felt held back by their size, or has a difficult relationship with food. My experience has been a weight off my mind... and the rest of my body!"

"Losing weight and keeping it off has always been a nightmare for me, but over a period of 8 weeks I lost 24lbs, and to date, have maintained that weight loss - I feel so much younger and fitter as a result.

My WeightMatters personal trainer keeps everything so fresh and vital that every session feels like the first. At the same time James’ coaching on weight management has really helped me to make what I would call a true ‘lifestyle change’ and for that I will be eternally grateful"

"I am a fairly successful and relatively high profile business leader who has struggled his whole life with obesity. I started attending “WeightMatters” about a year ago and M.D. James Lamper has worked diligently with me to understand my psyche, my lifestyle and how that affects my eating habits. WM has helped me to learn new behaviour and to overlay that on top of the old.

Consequently without "dieting" I have lost around 33 lbs (approx 15kgs) in a year.

My new lifestyle is just that, I am not deprived of anything and I am healthier and fitter than I have ever been. I would recommend WM to anyone who has struggled similarly so as to change their lives."

"It took me 15 years to find help and go to James at WeightMatters to talk openly about my eating disorder. I thought that something really had to change because I hadn’t told anyone my secret. I always thought it would just go away in time. But I finally realised that it was getting worse rather than better. I am 30 so thought now I was ready to save myself from the darkness I had lived for half my life. James helped me understand my emotional connection with food in a non-intimidating, patient and sympathetic approach. I listened and finally chose to open my eyes and acknowledge that Bulimia is destructive and was not going to allow me to grow as a person and really enjoy being who I am. I chose to take time to look after myself and I hope I can continue to use what James and I discussed and make these changes last as long as they possibly can."

"As I had a milestone birthday approaching, I decided I wanted to be fit and 50, not fat and 50. I was lucky enough to be introduced to James and would wholeheartedly recommend him and his philosophy. He made a lot of very practical suggestions, which made a huge difference to me reaching my goal in time for my birthday."
