What is Food is Life?
An online nutrition-coaching platform designed on the foundations that humans are on this planet to feel alive, have fun and be happy. Food Is Life is about fitting your nutrition/ food/ diet/ goals into and around your lifestyle, not the other way around.
Your journey as part of the Food Is Life Family will be based around educating you on the science and giving you the tools, support and education to one day fly the nest and alone.
There is no preachy, sexy stuff here. You will be made aware that results don’t happen overnight and you’re not expected to be perfect, and that mistakes are where we learn and grow the most.
In the same breath (but different paragraph), Steph and Ross will provide you with all the education you need to succeed, and you better believe they will be there for you through every single up and down… so much support and motivation it will hurt 😉
At Food Is Life it’s all about science, it’s about education and it’s about YOU.
You’re an individual human being living on planet earth, so let us treat you as one and get you the weight loss you truly, wholly deserve!

Who is Steph?
Steph. Me. A fully qualified Sport and Exercise Nutritionist registered to the Sport and Exercise Nutrition Register. I completed a double major first class Bachelors degree in ‘Sport and Exercise Science’ and ‘Human Communication Studies’ at the University of Northern Colorado, USA.

I now run Food Is Life, as a nutrition + weight loss coach full time and tennis coach in my “spare” time. To find out what I get up to day-to-day, follow my daily story’s feed on either Facebook or Instagram (at least I make myself laugh!)
Who is Ross?

As a youth I played county level rugby, and played for both London Irish + England as the #10, fly half.
I now work with Steph on the exercise side of Food Is Life, run the Lean Bean Exercise programmes to draw the connection between nutrition and fitness for an overall happy and healthy way of life for all.
