<div class="contentdiv"> <h1>About Coach Suzanne & FitWatch</h1> Hi!  I'm Coach Suzanne! I'm a Health & Nutrition Coach. I help people eat better, move more and believe in themselves, so they can lose weight and feel great! <br /> <img class="pull-right visible-desktop visible-tablet" src="/images/suzanne-image.png" style="margin: 10px; width: 275px;" /> <img class="visible-phone" src="/images/suzanne-image.png" style="margin: 10px; width: 275px;" /><br /> I work mostly with women over 45 who are struggling to find a way to lose weight without giving up the foods they love. They usually just need a little bit of guidance and accountability to change unhealthy habits into healthy ones -- and habits they can live with for the rest of their life.  I won't make them give up chocolate or eat broccoli if they don't want to!<br /> <br /> I coach them, and give them programs and tools to give them more confidence that they CAN lose weight -- and have more energy--  by taking away that feeling of "overwhelm" and not knowing what to do.<br /> <br /> I am passionate about helping people find their own path when it comes to weight loss.  In my mind, there are seven billion people on the planet and 7 billion ways for people to eat better and feel better.<br /> <br /> I think what really gets me motivated is helping people get out of a rut.  Too often, I see people stuck, spinning their wheels, trying real hard to lose weight but not being able to find their own path because of all the mixed signals out there.<br /> <br /> I created the FitWatch website way back in 2002 to help people lose weight.  I was a programmer with a strong interest in nutrition and exercise.  So, you'll find lots of tools and calculators to help <u>you </u>reach your weight loss goals.<br /> <br /> Then, I got more serious about helping people by becoming an <a href="https://www.acefitness.org/education-and-resources/lifestyle/find-ace-pro/dxy2x83/suzanne-hiscock" target="_blank">ACE-certified Personal Trainer and Health Coach</a>.<br /> <br /> But what really gave me the coaching bug -- and a desire to create programs -- was becoming a Precision Nutrition-certified Nutrition Coach.  They taught me to become a CLIENT-CENTERED coach -- which means my focus is on you and your needs; not about me being the expert and telling you what to do to show how smart I am.<br /> <br /> You can read more about what kind of a Coach I am right here:  <a href="https://www.fitwatch.com/what-kind-of-coach-am-i">What Kind of Coach Am I? Am I This Guy?</a><br /> <br /> <strong>My Coaching Philosophy is All About Eating Better, Moving More and Believing in Yourself</strong><br /> <br /> I help you lose weight and get fit by encouraging you to: <ul> <li><strong>Eat Better</strong> — by showing you different ways to eat a healthy and balanced diet to suit your lifestyle;</li> <li><strong>Move More</strong> — through a combination of cardio, strength training and stretching to help you burn excess fat, build muscle and increase your flexibility;</li> <li><strong>Believe in Yourself</strong> — by helping you understand your relationship with food and exercise, and through support and motivation.</li> </ul> Eating better, moving more and believing in yourself is about moving forward and leading the life you deserve to live because <strong>you are more than just a number on the scale.</strong> <img alt="" class="pyro-image alignment-none pull-left visible-desktop visible-tablet" data-pyroimage="true" src="https://www.fitwatch.com/files/thumb/036c3981d139d4c/298" style="margin:10px 20px 10px 0px" /><br /> <br /> And when I'm not busy creating programs and helping people lose weight, I can usually be found out walking, doing hot yoga, and gardening -- although I'm not very good at gardening! Ha!<br /> <br /> In the wintertime, you can find me out snowshoeing -- and for somebody who loves summer and is not a fan of winter, that's a big deal.  I decided to embrace winter and find some outdoor activities!<br /> <img alt="" class="pyro-image alignment-none visible-phone" data-pyroimage="true" src="https://www.fitwatch.com/files/thumb/036c3981d139d4c/298" style="margin:10px 20px 10px 0px" /> <h4><br /> <strong>Want to know more?  Here are four fun facts about me...</strong></h4> -  I have three (adult) children -- including one set of twins!  All girls.<br /> <br /> -  I'd choose Star Wars over Star Trek (apologies to my good friend, France!), but I love both.<br /> <br /> -  I am known in my family for falling down stairs. Been doing it since I was a kid. Even broke my foot once.<br /> <br /> - I have been to the Googleplex out in California. <h4><br /> <strong>Interested in learning more about what I do and how I can help you?  Here's what do now...</strong></h4> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.fitwatch.com/newsletter-signup">Sign Up for My Weekly Newsletter</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.fitwatch.com/online-kitchen-rescue-pack">Download the Kitchen Rescue Pack on How to Create the Perfect Meal</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.fitwatch.com/online-nutrition-coaching-discount">Learn more about my Online Nutrition Coaching program</a> (you can get a special discount, too!)</li> </ul> <h4><strong>Join Me on Social Media for even more support!</strong></h4> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/FitWatch-90246329052/">Facebook</a> (open to all)</li> <li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/928420960658034/">Facebook Closed Group</a> (for those who have signed up for a FitWatch service or product, such as the newsletter)</li> </ul> <h4>Explore FitWatch.com</h4> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.fitwatch.com/blog">Blog</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.fitwatch.com/calculator/">Calculators</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.fitwatch.com/tools">Tools</a></li> </ul> I hope you find FitWatch.com a place to find support and motivation on your fitness journey.<br /> <br /> Eat better, move more and believe in yourself,<br /> <br /> Coach Suzanne<br /> <em>PN1 certified Nutrition Coach and ACE-certified Health Coach & Nutrition Specialist</em><br /> FitWatch - Eat better.
