What Topics are covered?

Our 1 Day Courses are all led by Chocolate Fairies – women who have taken part in a full Beyond Chocolate training and, importantly, women like you who have ’been there’ themselves. Alongside other participants, your Fairy will support you through a range of individual, paired and small group activities that, one by one, bring the Principles to life! As the day unfolds, these carefully planned tasks deal with the issues that really matter - comfort eating, cravings, exercise, body image and more.

Building on your own experiences, you’ll be offered opportunities to ask the questions that matter to you and the chance to work through practical solutions for your own real-life obstacles. After a day jam-packed with ‘WOW!’ moments of realisation, you’ll leave the Beyond Chocolate Experience motivated, inspired and with an array of strategies at your fingertips for a healthier relationship with food and your body which includes, if you want to, losing weight and keeping it off!

Topics covered on the day include:

  • How to ditch the ‘all or nothing’ diet mentality
  • How to DO Beyond Chocolate so it doesn’t become just another good idea you tried
  • Eating when you’re hungry
  • Stopping when you’ve had enough
  • How to make sure you’re not the dustbin! How to stop eating food you don’t need.
  • How to stop overeating and binging
  • Eating whatever you want without feeling guilty!
  • Making ‘exercise’ enjoyable so that you actually DO it
  • How to get the body you want
  • How to support yourself
  • How to be your own weight loss guru!

What’s included?

The cost of the course includes absolutely EVERYTHING – teas/coffees, refreshments, a lovely lunch, materials and goodies. There are NO hidden extras and we won’t try to sell you anything at all!

After the course, further support is on hand from the exclusive Beyond Chocolate member only forum where over 550 other Beyond Chocolaters provide an endless source of support, ideas and guidance.

I taste the freedom when...
my first thought of the day is not about food.


Before Beyond Chocolate my life was all about counting (calories, pounds, weeks to targets), about restricting and forbidding things, about feeling guilty and lacking in willpower and about feeling bad about my body. Oh and thinking about chocolate! I spent my time planning what I’d do when I was finally slim – the clothes I would buy, groups I’d join and activities I’d do, one day soon … 

In my life ‘Beyond Chocolate’ I eat whatever I want and because it’s when I’m hungry and I stop when my body’s had enough, I’ve lost more than two stone without trying and kept it off. I buy great clothes, do all sorts of activities I never dreamt of before and feel great about myself!  Even though I know I still have a good way to go, I’m living my life today and putting nothing off. And amazingly, now I know I can eat chocolate whenever I want, I don’t want it that often but when I do, I eat it and enjoy it!

I trained to be a Fairy because I truly believe that anyone who has struggled with her weight can benefit so much from this wonderful process, so I just want to pass it on.

My three Chocolate Fairy favourites are: the seaside – sunshine, blue skies.
