1-2-1 WEIGHT LOSS COACHING
My Approach to Weight Loss
I want to help people end the struggles, frustration, despair, around weight loss. We do this by focusing on gaining health and nourishment, rather than deprivation and dieting. And this can start right now.
You probably have heard that about 95% of diets don’t work in the longer run. Most diets start with the idea that it is in your control to lose weight, and so it is your fault if you fail. This ‘blame culture’ helps fuel our society’s weight stigma and discrimination.
Diets can also, unfortunately, play a critical role in the development of eating disorders.
Sustainable weight loss is really is not JUST what are you eating and drinking. If your eating is affected by your life, then this is about your whole life.
Movement is a big part of this. Whether helping you integrate activity through coaching conversation, through to Personal Training sessions together, I am here to help you integrate movement to become a consistent, enjoyable, part of your life.
My position on weight loss as a coach is weight neutrality. I work from a non-judgemental perspective. You may have tried all sorts of diets in the past, you may be on the weight loss drugs (see below). I aim to boost self esteem and body respect, whilst helping women become more nourished. Size is only one measure of overall health.
Many of my clients are neurodiverse (or suspecting they might be). There is a big correlation between finding it hard to lose weight, and ADHD in particular. I am trained to help clients with this.
Weight Loss Drugs
The weight loss industry is changing rapidly. The impact of the different drugs is already significant, and is going to to grow.
If you are on one of the drugs, you will find me non-judgemental about this. I am here to support my clients in the decisions they take for themselves, and we can coach on the following:
- improving nourishment through food and drink
- reducing emotional eating / reliance on food to cope
- healthful habit changes around food/ shopping, movement and other aspects of wellness
The aim is to ensure that when you come off the drug, you do not replace the fat and fall back into unhelpful habits again.
