at sideplates, we eat better not less.

What would you rather eat: a handful of almonds or 480 calories or a salmon bagel for 480 calories?

hello, I'm nawaal

I’m an ex-weight watchers member and coach.

When it comes to my coaching approach, I believe in 2 things: firstly, food should always taste good and secondly, no 2 people are the same and thus shouldn’t be treated as such. And that’s my promise to you!

I’m here to support you on this journey of yours to turn this fad or season into a lifestyle – and a lifestyle you’ll actually enjoy.

my classes

Why sideplates? Because when you choose a dinner plate, you always fill to the edge and end up eating a lot more than you need to. But when you choose a sideplate, you end up eating just the right amount and enjoying your food just as much!

1:1 online meetings

If you're needing something more flexible or want more intentional coaching, I am happy to meet you weekly via video call.

Pop me an email and let's chat as to when a good time would be for us to meet!

Plumstead Group Classes

Mondays we meet in Plumstead. Group classes are a great way to meet others on the same journey as you and be encouraged by others. Each class involves a weigh in and a short talk from me to set you up for success for the week ahead!

Pinelands Group Classes

Tuesdays we meet in Pinelands. Group classes are a great way to meet others on the same journey as you and be encouraged by others. Each class involves a weigh in and a short talk from me to set you up for success for the week ahead!

things you will learn

building new habits

Our eating patterns are linked to so much: our emotions, our circumstances and that time of the month. Awareness around these habits will help you build new and healthy ones.

better food decisions

What would you rather eat: A salmon bagel for 480 kcal or a handful of almonds for 480 kcal? Yup, you'd be surprised at some of the questionable food choices we make.

prep, prep, prep!

It takes time to prep but you need to make that time for yourself. Packing your lunch the night before will prevent you from grabbing a not-so-good something quick from the shop.

moderation

I eat bread, chocolate and ice cream too. I certainly don't eat the whole loaf, slab and tub. When we understand moderation, we never have to give up the foods we love.
