1:1 Weight Loss Coaching for women who have tried everything

We often hear the term ‘all diets fail’, or ‘diets don’t work’. Diets do work, it’s our approach that is the problem, often learning on quick fix solutions and trying to lose the weight as soon as possible.

Other Issues Are; 

• We don’t intend on maintaining what we are doing once the diet is ‘over’
• We simply can't’ maintain what we are doing once it’s over
• We lost more weight than we needed to, and now the body is concerned about your safety (a competition prep, for example), or
• We didn’t work on the underlying issues whilst doing the diet, so the behaviour comes back as soon as the diet is done.

If you feel like you're doing everything right but still can't lose fat, it's often not a willpower issue - its your metabolism adapting to stress, restriction, and inconsistency. In this article I'll explain why fat loss becomes difficult when metabolic health is compromised, and what actually helps restore it.

Dieting has been positioned as the primary solution for weight loss since the Western world's beginnings. Structured plans, ‘clean foods’, rigid rules, and promises of transformation dominate the health industry. Yet, despite widespread participation, long-term success remains relatively rare.

This isn’t because people lack discipline or motivation. The issue is more complex: most diets are not designed for long-term sustainability, and they often work against both human biology and behaviour.

Understanding why diets fail, and when they can succeed, provides a far more useful framework for approaching fat loss in a way that actually lasts - and I know this as I’ve supported women in long term weight loss for over a decade.

When people talk about fat loss, they usually talk about weight, but weight loss and fat loss are not the same thing.

Call it weight loss, fat loss, or body transformation, this process will be much more successful, and you will lose weight faster, if you have a healthy mindset. In this article, I’ll compare a healthy vs unhealthy mindset, so you can see where you fit in your body transformation goals!

WEIGHT LOSS IS JUST AS MUCH ABOUT THE MIND AS IT IS ABOUT YOUR DIET AND EXERCISE

It’s the constant avoidance of temptation, the organisation of pre-prepped meals, the motivation to go to the gym (or the discipline of going, even if you don’t feel like it). It’s also about your attitude, and your expectations of the process going in.

If your focus is to lose weight, I have news for you – you need to optimise your metabolism. So let’s start there. 

Metabolism as it pertains to body composition refers to the amount of calories or kilojoules we require on a daily basis to carry out basic functions. We all have a baseline metabolism, which us professionals refer to as our Basal Metabolic Rate, or BMR for short.

When we say we want to ‘lose weight’, what we are suggesting is to lose body fat (also referred to as ‘fat loss’) – so you’ll see all those terms used interchangeably throughout this article.

Potatoes are one of those foods women avoid because, well, CARBS. But, did you know you can lose weight and eat carbs at the same time?

And, potatoes are good for you.

Keto will tell you that potatoes make you ‘fat’. They tell you that it ‘spikes insulin’ and this mechanism directly makes you gain fat, or prevents you from losing fat, etc. So people avoid potatoes, but in a carb-deprived state end up binging on other no-so-healthful carb foods (those packet ones laden with sugar, salt and fat – the real culprits), when they could just be enjoying carbs and potatoes on the daily.

You are trying to lose weight and failing over and over again. You start Monday with the best intentions, only to find yourself face-down in a bag of chips by Thursday, wondering where your 'willpower' or 'motivation' went.

After 14 years of coaching clients through body transformations, I can tell you with absolute certainty: Your lack of progress isn't a lack of discipline. It is a structural design flaw in how you are approaching the process.

When you get stuck in a cycle of constant restarting, it's usually because of hidden psychological patterns that ensure you don't succeed in losing weight and keeping it off.

in 2014-15, statistics showed that 63.4% of Australians were overweight or obese, so is it sugar or fat that is causing it? Both have been demonised in the past, but this is an interesting experiment!

Two men, identical twins, went on opposite diets for one month. One had access to endless amounts of sugar, and one to endless amounts of fat. The aim was to find out whether it was fat or sugar that was contributing to obesity.

Dieting can be hard work! But there are lots of things you can do to make it easier for yourself. In this post I am sharing 13 things that make dieting, or fat loss phases, easier. 

No matter what your body goals are, you need to enjoy your food and lifestyle enough to keep it in the long term. There's no such thing as an eating style you hate that can get you the body you want in the long term. 

Most of the tips are food related, but I guarantee they will help!
