" I am a 49 year old Director of a Consultancy Company who spends a large amount of his time entertaining clients. Anna appealed to my logic concerning food ... Over the 8 week period I lost a stone and 2 months on, I am still at my target weight. In addition I appear to have more energy than before. "

Distance Dieters was founded in 2008 by fitness and health coach, Anna Mason. Today, she is the first point of contact for people wanting to know more about the programme and still carries out a full schedule of personal coaching.
Anna came up with the idea of Distance Dieters after a colleague of her husband’s asked if she could coach him to lose weight even though he spent a lot of time away on business.
“I gave it some thought and realised I could combine my skills as a coach and my knowledge of fitness and healthy eating to put together a dieting programme using technology that could be accessed by anyone, wherever they happened to be.
“Since I started Distance Dieters, every client I’ve had has lost the weight they wanted to lose. And what’s even better about this programme is that because it’s about learning to eat more healthily rather than faddy dieting, the weight will stay off.”
After graduating with a BSc in Sports Science from Loughborough University, Anna became a fitness instructor and then one of the first personal trainers in the Midlands. She has now been helping clients with fitness and nutrition for more than 20 years.
Based in Warwickshire, near Stratford upon Avon, Anna is married and manages Distance Dieters alongside raising two school-aged children, six cats, two black Labradors, a Great Dane, a crowd of broody hens and a colourful collection of ducks and ducklings.
Anna is available for speaking engagements and as a seminar and workshop leader on a range of health, fitness and weight loss topics. Find out more about booking Anna as a speaker in our speaking section.
