Do you always come back from holiday heavier, bloated and feeling guilty for enjoying food?

It's very normal and common unfortunately to see so many women dread stepping on the scale to see how much weight they've gained after a holiday, and to then throw themselves back into a restrictive diet or routine to try and drop the holiday weight gain.

But what if I told you it's possible to not only avoid gaining weight while on holiday, but to actually either maintain or lose the weight too - WITHOUT missing out on enjoying all the fun foods?

In this episode, I’ll show you why holidays really accelerate binge-restrict cycles and three simple ways for how to enjoy them without undoing your progress.

Do you feel addicted to ultra-processed foods (UPFs)? Or do you find it really difficult to stop binge-eating on junk food?

In this episode, we break down what an ultra-processed food really is, and why it could be the root cause of your binge-eating - not your willpower or 'need' to be stricter with your diet.

I'll also be giving you a 3-step process to break away from feeling out of control around UPF and kicking the binge-restrict cycle.

What if I told you that tracking your calories is just one method for fat loss?

That there are other methods available to you that don't take up hours of your life every week, cause you to feel like a constant failure if you go 1 calorie over or lead to you eating the same meals on rotation.

In this episode, I break down how you can easily build a healthy balanced plate for fat loss, as well as how you can lose 5-8lbs of fat in the next 6 weeks

Feeling more out of control around food now that the sun’s out? You’re not the only one.

If you’ve been bingeing more lately, raiding the snack drawer after work, finishing your kids’ ice creams, or saying “sod it” at every BBQ; this episode is going to help you break the binge-restrict cycle.

In today’s chat, I’m breaking down why warmer weather actually makes bingeing worse (it’s not just you), why your all-or-nothing cycle is the real culprit, and what to do instead so you can feel normal around food again… without tracking or starting over every Monday.

Whether you’ve got a holiday coming up or you’re just tired of feeling stuck - this episode is for you 🤍

Does it feel like you're doing EVERYTHING you're supposed to do to lose weight, but you're STILL not seeing the number go down on the scale?

You're not alone.

One of my clients came to me back in February, telling me she was doing all the things to lose weight but just wasn't get the results she thought she should be seeing.

She was: 

👉🏻 tracking everything she ate down to the last calorie 

👉🏻 hitting her protein targets perfectly

👉🏻 had been doing a workout plan from another PT for years

👉🏻 going to the gym 4–5 times a week 

👉🏻 walking between 5,000-10,000 steps a day.

But she STILL wasn't managing to shift the weight and get back to her pre-baby size.

In this episode, I share how I helped my client as a Weight Loss Specialist to break through her plateau WITHOUT making her go on a low-calorie diet or spend even more time exercising.

...and spoiler alert: she went on to lose over a stone in 12 weeks 🔥

In today's episode, you'll also learn EXACTLY what you can do to break through your own weight loss plateau so you never have to waste your time, energy or effort again.

You'll be able to:

✅ recognise when you actually are in a weight loss plateau

✅ know exactly what you can do to break through your plateau 

✅ understand why you can't rely on the scales to measure your success

✅ what you should expect (and ask for!) from a workout plan for the most effective weight loss
