Sustainablechange レビュー 579

Just a really positive experience. I was looking to sustain the weight loss I had achieved and started following him on Facebook. Had a brief text chat with Alex and he kindly forwarded me some links to free stuff that he felt could help me. There’s a lot of useful stuff in there … but for me it was the recipes and the exercises that I will be checking out more fully and if I feel wobbly at times I’ll take advantage of the other video and step by step support guides and resources. Thank you!

Alex came up on facebook so I clicked on it and so pleased I did. Alex started a conversation with me and he gave me some ideas of what I could achieve. Unfortunately I can’t afford a monthly subscription at the moment. He was so kind that he gave me a couple of courses to work through for free and a link to their free facebook group. With the free stuff I have been given I think I can make some small changes that can help me thank you.

Absolutely first class sustainable fitness, helpful, informative & motivating.
Not only that, I received a full FREE course covering nutrition, exercises plus lots of bonus material.
Would highly recommend 👌

Found on FB a post by Alex that looked interesting about problems of weight gain and health. Alex kindly took the time to chat with me . Unfortunately I was not in a position to take on a monthly cost being on a small pension. But Alex was very kind and gave me free access to some of the resources on FB. It will great to be able to start looking at these and hopefully now get healthier in my 70s. Thank you Alex for your patience and time. Also thanks in particular to having free access to some of these resources.

Ahead of starting this programme i was feeling frustrated and if i am honest quite hopeless about my ability to lose weight that i have carried for most of my adult life. I have tried a vast array of diets, potions and pills. Even succumbing over the last couple of years to very expensive weightloss jabs. All of which have had some form of success initially but havent been sustainable and the weight and sense of failure regrettably has returned.

This has now led to mire scary joint issues and severe arthritis, not helped by hormonal changes brought about by menopause.
I have fallen twice in the street and not been able to get up without assistance from kind strangers.

With all of this going on i was seriously worried for my future mobility etc.
Then Alex and Sustainable Change came up on my phone feed and really caught my eye. The programme seemed to understand my predicament and more importantly seemed to be a holistical whole person approach, not just diets and blame when it becomes unmanagable.

I signed up due to fears for my future health and wellbeing, i need to feel more confidant in my ability to move now and in the future.
Sustanable change provided me with such an amazing plan and a structure of support to provide advice, encouragement, practical steps , ways to improve fitness and stamina all guided and steered by my amazing coach Sara ...she made such a difference to me helping me to focus every day on goals and wins that were realistic and achieveable. Her gentle pushing and holding me to account meant that it felt personalised and livable in my life everyday. The programne has taught me a lot about how i tick mentally and learning to recognise that the highs and lows of life can destabilise me from my path. This is where the magic happened for me. Joining Alex and many other participants on the lives each morning helps me to see that so many people are struggling just like me and finding the this programme provides tools encouragement support and expectation that you can and will succeed to achieve the goals you set yourself if you trust the process and consistently show up for yourself and each other with this plan every day.

Such a supportive group of people sharing amazing inspirational stiries about how this programme has been so life changing for them too. You cant help but want to be a part of all the positive honest energy.

It has been a game changer for me ...i am now hopeful and positive about my future. I have a far more optimistic mindset about what i am capable of and truly now understand the importance of showing up for myself as Alex and his team show us the how to make our whys a reality.
Its like having your own personal gang of cheer leaders in your corner every step of the way. Some of the wins for me have been in the activity area, i can do more exersises and reps of them now than i ever dreamed of and actually enjoy doing them !!! I routinely smash my step goals and have learnt ways to increase activity without it feeling like a chore or agony. With the support of the fabulous Sara i learnt not to turn a drama into a crisis with my emotional regulation and really got to understand how linked emotional responses are linked to my attutude, committment , motivation and behaviours around food, drink etc....a huge win for me to put things in place to draw a line reset/focus and move on. For that alone Sara i shall be forever grateful.
I attended an appointment for my knee this week and got really positive feedback from the doctor about how the exersise i am doing is helping my mobility and helping to delay surgery whilst still giving me a range of movement. What a win and left me feeling so thrilled that i have been able to achieve that !!!

I signed up to a £2,600 coaching programme with Sustainable Change, presented as £2,300 after a £300 “scholarship,” following what was described to me as a complimentary consultation call.

The initial message stated the purpose of the call was to identify my “blind spots” in areas such as nutrition, daily structure, and behavioural patterns. Based on this, I understood the call to be advice-led.

In practice, the call did not reflect that description. There was no meaningful discussion of my nutrition, daily habits, or behavioural patterns. Instead, the conversation quickly shifted to identifying a “blind spot” around delaying action, followed by a strong focus on the programme itself and why I should join.

During the call, I felt under pressure to proceed and paid a 25% deposit. I was then told that if I paid in full within a month, the price would be reduced further to £2,100, which introduced additional urgency around making a quick financial decision.

The tone of the call was highly emotive. The emphasis was placed on why I needed to take action now, rather than allowing space to consider the decision. When I raised concerns about affordability, I was encouraged to justify proceeding by writing down reasons why I should join the programme. I did not feel I had the opportunity to step away and make a considered decision.

I was not given sufficient time to read or review the agreement before signing, and I was not clearly aware at the time that I would be waiving my 14-day cooling-off rights.

After I requested cancellation, I was offered a reduced price of £1,900 with a payment plan in an attempt to continue with the programme. I declined this based on how the process had been handled and my personal circumstances at the time, including a house move.

While Sustainable Change maintained that their processes were followed, they did agree to cancel my contract and issue a full refund.

Based on my experience, the pricing and structure appeared flexible depending on the situation. This was not a neutral or advice-led consultation, but a sales-focused interaction leading directly to a high-cost commitment. I would strongly advise anyone considering this to take time away from the call, review the full terms carefully, and ensure you are comfortable with both the cost and the commitment before agreeing.

So after many years yo-yo dieting and bingeing with zero exercise, my self worth was at an all time low. I could feel my health suffering and was anxious it would only get worse. While doom scrolling on Instagram to the algorithm of weight loss and fat loss and get healthy I fell upon Sustainable Change and blindly clicked on the link for a free consultation. After a brief text exchange (on a Sunday morning) I arranged a call for the Monday and was sent videos to watch about other client’s progress. Feeling excited but apprehensive (it did feel like quite a hard sell), I signed up. I was reluctant to spend the money required but was bamboozled by the “do this for you”, “prioritise yourself “ talk.
Nevertheless I needed this. I needed something to shake me out of the rut I was in.
And what can I say, the plan really does work if you commit to it. My habits have totally changed. Hydration, Nutrition, Strength Training, Walking are all now part of my daily routine and I have had great wins in terms of weight loss, body composition and dress size.
This has all been thanks to my hard work and determination but I have to give thanks to my wonderful coach Aidan for steering me daily into these habits. I wish I could have stayed on after the first 12 weeks, but I just cannot afford to unfortunately. However I am a lifetime member of the inner circle and attend Alex’s Lives without fail. All of what I have learned in my 12 weeks will stand me in good stead to prove that change is sustainable. Definitely worth it.

Having a number of health concerns and reduced mobility I came across sustainability. Accessed face book and joined. Watched very informative videos. I was intrigued. I ask from outset for cost. I got this on day two. Outside my budget. Yes lots of personal questions are asked but these are needed to decide direction to take. Not offended by these at all. I felt support. Alex advised he wished to help 1 million people, even those unable to afford the courses. I was sent a weekly food list. I will try this. Also a pack on how to increase your metabolism. Totally free. I really appreciated this. Felt like I got a mini scholarship. Thanks and I wish all who are on their journey success.

I was in a rut, doing what I thought was best in terms of exercise and diet but not making any progress. I invested in the 12 week programme and immediately felt connected to a team who cared and a wider community of women who are so supportive. I’ve learned so much and am continuing to learn, Sustainable Change is just that. My coach Siobhra is there for me every day, coaching me with empathy, factual, evidence based advice and honesty. It takes time to change ingrained habits and embed realistic life changing ones. This programme and Siobhra are working with and for me to ensure I achieve my goal of reducing my health risks and getting the most out of life.

I joined the SCP programme after seeing the ads and reading the testimonials on my social media. I had been looking for something better after all the years of diet programmes and I really wanted to avoid injections. I have been fighting my weight for years, I was not feeling happy with myself, hated photos and hated the mirror. It has been messing with my head for years. I wanted a long term solution. I know I can lose weight, keeping it off is the hard part.
Alex’s programme is packed with information, nutrition plans, physio, exercise and one-to-one support. After my first 12 weeks I lost 5.5kg and 36cm. Nice and steady and I am not done yet, but I am a better version of myself today than I was when I started, for me that is the greatest win. I understand what I need to eat, how I need to move and how important water is!
I had to admit the investment was more than I thought but no more than injections and I feel like I have a better understanding of myself, my needs and I have a platform for the future. I have on-going lifelong group support which is pretty amazing and full of informative, kind and supportive women.
The most important aspect for me was the one-to-one coaching. Aidan has been a dream. He is full of enthusiasm, he listens and offers solutions and support without making me feel I bad about sending any way. I would not be where I am without him and getting the right coach is so so important. He leaves cheerful voice notes and listens to my needs, whether that is food or exercise! I would love to keep him as my coach forever! He is a great motivator. What I have learned that resonates with me the most is progress beats pressure, better is enough. I am better and that makes me really happy.

Alex Neilan has been very supportive to my situation, which is complicated as it involves medical conditions etc He has been very generous with his time, even giving me lots of free information and a free course, which I know is unusual but it just shows how kind a man he is. I am very grateful and am currently following the help given. Thanks Alex!

Joining Sustainable change was the best decision I have ever made. I have tried many different diet plans over the years but this is by far the best. Having your own personal coach means that I am seeing consistent results fast. My coach Siobhra has been absolutely amazing especially when I feel that I am going off track. She is so supportive and knowledgeable. I was astonished to have dropped 1 dress size in just 3 weeks. I would highly recommend this programme. 👌

Alex is a real person and has dedicated his life to helping people of all backgrounds to make sustainable changes to their lives. Read the reviews and watch the testimonials - this stuff is genuine and he has helped thousands.
I came to him at a bit of a challenging time with impending surgery and low income but he went out of his way to send me so much free information and encouragement to get me started. I can’t thank enough - wish I could join you and do this full programme but will make the very best of everything you have given me. It is very clearly not about the money for Alex and his team and they have gone above and beyond to provide free support for me. I have entered the draw for a free scholarship - keeping fingers and toes and everything else crossed. Can’t thank you enough team

After joining Sustainable Change, I found the support so incredible that I signed up for the Elite Physique program, which is practically hiring a whole team of specialised professionals to help me attain my goals. To get to my best health and strength, and really live my best life, I know I can’t do it alone because I would have been living it already. My body didn’t respond to what used to work for me and I really didn’t feel good on a daily basis, however my coach and the rest of the team helped and continue to help me approach things a different way. They coach you in a holistic way, meaning they cover all aspects of a person - not just weight loss and fitness, because they know every part of us needs to be aligned to not only reach our health and personal/professional goals, but to not slide back into old habits and head back to where we started.Now that I have invested in myself, that sure isn’t going to happen to me! I can say with hand on heart that this company is so supportive, so generous, and so caring in a way I’ve never seen before. You only have a certain amount of time on this earth - please make it the best you possibly can so you have no regrets.

I was 65years, getting old.I thought I was eating well and was fairly active for my age.I was not morbidly obese and kept trying to keep my weight in check. I had been thinking about doing stuff but somehow nothing changed.I missed feeling how I used to feel when younger. On joining SC I learnt that my diet was too low in protein, my strength was not improving as I was training incorrectly and I needed help with my psychological wellbeing. Alex Neilan the founder with a "can do attitude" has a team that I have witnessed achieve great things : lovely folk who had found themselves at a dead end healthwise improving their health, mobility and mental wellbeing. My challenges include a longterm mental health issue and cardiac impairment.My supportive coach Gavin has helped me gain strength and lose fat ( correct macros and resistance programme), Jane a mindset coach helped me soothe my nervous system,Tristan the physio is helping me with a slightly troublesome shoulder which is improving already and I study psychologist Aoifes talks each week to understand myself better and grow as a person. I am now moving forward in my life and am enjoying doing so.If you are wondering if SC might help you , I think its the accountability to a personal coach that helps you slowly develop new habits and stick with them long term- vague dreams become actions that lead you actually realising your dreams.

Before joining this group, I thought my life was going down hill fast.
By Christmas 2025 I was at my heaviest of 100kg. I couldn't fit into my clothes, I felt that I needed to start planning for my old age. I had currently went from having an active life doing netball activities 5 days a week to just 1st a week. I was feeling angry all the time, not sleeping and worrying what the future held for me.
In January 2026 Substainable Change Programme pop onto my facebook page, and after watching Alex, I then signed up that day.
13 weeks laters I lost 8 kg. It hasn't been an easy journey, I have had high, and low points throughout. However with the help from my Coach Joe, who was just a call away. He helped me through those tough time when I couldn't walk, and the scales wouldn't moved. He was right by my side and he helped to get me to where I am now. Which is being more active again, starting to always think positively and giving me challenges to work towards. I never thought that I would ever lift weights , however here I am doing that and the fact that I enjoy doing this is a testament on how to become a better version of myself.
The programme is so good that you have access to lots of specialists all in one place.
Alex's morning sessions are very insightful and I try and take 1 point that could help me get through the day when we are faced with so many choices and demands.
I would recommend this programme to anyone who wants to transform their lives.
The innner circle is very positive, supportive and inspirational group that are always there if you need that extra boost or if you are unsure about things.
Why not just give it a go, start by listening to Alex on a Monday to Thursday morning and see if it for you.
You never know, you might suprise yourself.

I joined SC in January after hearing Alex on a Facebook live. I liked what he was saying and decided to take the first steps and request a call back. I joined up as I knew I needed a bit of support and I was lacking energy and motivation, I also had a health scare a few months earlier and wanted help with my fitness so I could grow older in a better place physically. I had access to a personal coach, a mindset coach and physiotherapist and was given meal plans and daily tasks . 12 weeks later I am 7.4kg down, 30 cms down and feeling so much better mentally and physically. My coach Joe was an incredible support during the 12 weeks and the advice from Tristan the physio made such a difference to my knee range. Watching Alex's lives Monday-Thurs keeps me right. I do believe this is the gold standard. It's not just about the scales, its about mindset, support, community. The inner circle group you get access to are the most positive, friendly, inspiring women and are also a constant source of support. If you sign up to SC, you will not be alone. I do believe this is a company that cares.

'I can either do 'life' or focus on my health and weight - not both.' That's what I had concluded over the last several years.
If, like me, you have a rich and full life, with a lot of responsibilities and commitments, you might feel the same!
People and relationships are important to me - I care, just often not for me.
I did realise that my health was starting to get a bit worse and future risks were becoming more likely. I also hated what I looked like and that I kept buying bigger clothes. I wanted to be present and active into the future for my children, family, friends and myself.
When I came across Alex Neilen, The Sports Dietician, and his Sustainable Change Programme I was interested to find out what he saw as 'Sustainable'. Communicating with Alex and his team was easy and I was impressed with the multi disciplinary approach and the emphasis on evidence based practice.
Throughout the programme the multi disciplinary support has been excellent and the clear focus on longterm sustainable lifestyle and mindset change has been (and is still) very effective. I have reduced my body weight by 25% to a healthy weight, increased my activity levels and ability to do the outdoors activities I enjoy, and significantly increased my confidence. And I can fit into my favourite clothes again! The individual coaching element has been key to this.

Sustainable Change kept popping up on Facebook. I watched some of the videos and things really resonated with me. I had a health diagnosis just before Christmas and knew I had to do something about my health otherwise I was going to be going into my senior years in a sorry state. I took the plunge and joined Sustainable Change mid January signing up for the initial 12 week course. It’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. You are assigned a personal coach and I have to say my coach Eoin has been incredible. The amount of support and contact you have is personalised to you. This is so much more than just a weight loss journey it’s a whole person support system that works with you to change your mindset, exercise, nutrition, wellbeing and of course you loose weight in a sustainable way in the process. You have to be prepared to be receptive and work with the team they are all there to support and guide you, but if you are prepared to do this you will see results. I have my mojo back and will be continuing my journey with Sustainable Change as I know that with their help and guidance I will be entering my senior years in the best of health mentally and physically as I want to be living a good independent life not just existing. If you are struggling take the plunge you won’t regret it!

FROM ROCK BOTTOM TO UNSTOPPABLE
Joining SCP has been a life changer for me in more ways than I could have ever imagined. I hsd found myself at a point where my life was entirely consumed by prioritising others; I had nothing more to give, I was fading into the background and given up on investing in myself. I had resigned to the life I was now living, the old me had vanished and the smiles had become very far and few between.

I was becoming overwhelmed with juggling a flourishing business, a relationship and caring for my mum with dementia; with no time for myself I began to hit low points and the stress had not only caused depression but my health physically. I was diagnosed with a leaky gut, histamine intolerance and MCAS, all caused by the stress. The weight was steadily creeping on, I went up 2 dress sizes and my energy / enthusiasm levels were diminishing. I felt like I was plummeting into an abyss of depression with no control.

Fitness and nutrition had always been a huge part of my life and everything I now tried wasn't working beyond a handful of weeks - calorie counting, fitness apps, carb cycling, low carb, intermittent fasting - you name it I probably tried it over the past few years. I had seen my GP who just prescribed anti-depressants, tried counselling and visited a private menopause doctor all to no avail; anything prescribed or suggested just became a short term fix.

I was becoming quite desperate and at the point of resigning to the fact this was now my life.

Then . . .one morning SCP appeared on my FB page and after listening to testimonials I became intrigued by their holistic/ multi-disciplinary approach. The balancing act of my life was growing beyond my capabilites and something had to change so I took the plunge and made contact. Right from the start I felt listened to, I felt seen, I felt supported and I knew this programme was going to be a game changer for me. I put faith and trust in Alex and his team and wow, the results speak for themselves.

♡ Lost 9 kg and still losing
♡ Lost 26.5cm with 11cm off my waist
♡ The smiles, self worth and self confidence have returned
♡ I have been able to create 'me' time and make myself a priority
♡ I have found a very supportive network of people within the inner circle group

The breakthrough for me was the shift in my mindset with astounding changes for the better and this came about very early on. With this change I have been able to rebuild the closeness I previously had with my mum before I felt the role of carer was sucking the life out of me. I now enjoy spending time with my mum rather than feeling anxious at the prospect - it makes me emotional when I reflect on this change, moving away from the tears to the sound of laughter.

I was assigned a 1:1 coach, Rab, who is absolutely awesome with his constant support and advice and who deserves credit for my life change, both physically and mentally. He created a fitness and nutrition plan specifically for me and the plus side is both mum and my partner enjoy the meals aswell. The team extended to a mindset coach, a physiotherapist, a physiologist and regular check in calls to assist my progress.

I now prioritise myself as I am important; I am so much happier and stronger. By prioritising myself, not only do I get a better version of myself but everyone around me gets a happier Carol, a Carol who now has a spring in her step, a radiant vibrancy about her and who is excited to continue this journey.

NOW is the time to make that change, don't hesitate, don't procrastinate, you are important, you are worthy of more.
