My client Ale lost 8.5kg in just 8 weeks during menopause.

When Ale first came to me, she’d been told by her doctor that she needed to lose weight to manage her symptoms

She was frustrated.

Her stamina was low.

She’d never lifted weights before.

And like many women going through menopause, she thought she’d have to spend hours doing cardio and survive on salads just to see the scale move.

But here’s what actually worked 👇

We built a nutrition plan around her goals and her stage of life.

She aimed for 30g of protein at every meal.

She didn’t cut out her favourite foods.

In fact, she still ate pizza regularly.

10,000 steps per day and no extra cardio

No spending hours on a treadmill.

Then we strength trained twice per week.

We focused on compound lifts like squats and deadlifts

Tracking her lifts through my app and increasing the weight/reps every week

Week by week, her form improved.

She got stronger

Her stamina improved.

She even started turning up for 6am training sessions.

And most importantly, she started feeling like herself again.

Today she’s down 8.5kg.

But the biggest transformation isn’t the weight.

It’s the confidence that comes from proving to yourself that you’re capable of more than you thought.

Because menopause isn’t the reason you’re stuck.

The problem is most women are given the wrong strategy.

You don’t need to eat less and exercise more.

You need a plan that is low maintenance and works with your body instead of against it.

Comment “STRONG” and I’ll show you exactly how we did it.

Healing isn’t about moving on… it’s about moving UP!

For 5 years I’ve been rebuilding myself piece by piece.

I walked away from an 8-year relationship, moved across the world, trained like an athlete, and pushed myself harder than ever before.

I thought I was chasing a glow up.
But what I really needed was a transformation.

Here’s what I realised:

Healing isn’t just about attracting better health, money, or relationships.

It’s about becoming the strongest version of you - the version no one can ever take away.

That’s why I created my 16-week coaching program:
To help women who feel stuck like I once did sculpt the body they want and the mindset they need.

Because if I can rise from that rut… so can you.

An uncomfortable size 10 to a confident size 6 in just 12 weeks!

“I used to hide behind baggy t-shirts and jumpers because I couldn’t stand the way I looked in anything else. My IBS flare ups were common and I was constantly bloated! But now? I’m wearing fitted clothes with confidence!”

Bhavi tried every fitness app, hired personal trainers, and ate salads every day. But nothing worked. She was frustrated, constantly bloated, lacking confidence in her outfits, and felt like nothing could change. She knew it was time for something different.

Here’s what we did:

➕Bhavi’s a full-time teacher, so we had to keep her stress low and maximise her time.

➕We optimised her free time, creating a personalised calendar for workouts, meal prep, and hitting her daily steps—while still making room for a social life!

➕We created a meal plan that required no more than 1 hour of prep each week, with plenty of protein to keep her feeling satisfied. The meals were also created to combat her IBS & bloating!

➕Time was tight, so we built a 3-day strength training program, each one lasting no more than an hour!

🚩If you’ve struggled with stubborn body fat, feel like your clothes don’t fit, and thought you couldn’t fit fitness into your busy life, I want to hear from you.

Drop me a message with the word ‘stubborn’ and let’s make your transformation happen.

For most of my life, I’ve been so focused on getting to the destination that I forgot to enjoy getting there.

I was talking to a friend today about building my PT business (money, growth etc.) and I said:

“I actually think I’m enjoying building it more than I’m going to enjoy getting there.”

And it made me realise how different I used to be.

Especially with my body.

For years, I only cared about the result.

Lose the 10kg I’d gained. Get the flat stomach. Because maybe THEN I’ll be happy.

So I’d eat boring salads, do HOURS on the treadmill, skip meals and feel guilty whenever I ate my beloved salt and vinegar crisps!

And hurrah, it worked.

I lost the 10kg!!

But as soon as I took my foot off the gas, because I literally hated salad and cardio, I’d gain all the weight back… plus moreee.

Eventually, I became so frustrated that I stopped training altogether for almost a year.

And that entire year, I told myself I lacked discipline and had shit genetics!

Really, I’d just never learnt to enjoy the process.

Because looking back, losing weight wasn’t what changed me.

Learning to trust myself did.

Stepping outside my comfort zone and trying strength training, even though I’d always been told lifting weights would make me “bulky”.

Realising I actually enjoyed getting stronger.

And then just continuing to turn up.

Week after week.

And I think that’s where I got it wrong for so many years.

I was trying to create a body I loved through a lifestyle I hated.

You can absolutely want to lose the 10kg.

But you’re going to spend a lot more time becoming that woman than you are celebrating the day you finally see the number on the scale.

So you might as well build a life you actually enjoy along the way.

Learn to enjoy the process and the results will follow 🫶 taken in London, United Kingdom by @leanlioness

My client Pooja lost 8.15 in just 16 weeks.

But that’s not the impressive part.

For years, Pooja would lose weight and then get stuck at 96kg.

Every single time.

She blamed her thyroid.
She thought she’d need to cut carbs.
And she hated cardio.

And when she first started training with me, she could barely get through a few reps before needing to stop and catch her breath.

Even climbing a flight of stairs left her breathless.

She was exhausted.
Frustrated.
And convinced her body was working against her.

But here’s what actually worked 👇

We didn’t cut carbs.
We didn’t put her on a miserable salad diet.
And we definitely didn’t make her spend hours on a treadmill.

Instead, we focused on the basics.

A nutrition plan built around foods she actually enjoyed.

👍 3 meals and 1 snack per day.
👍 A weekly cheat meal.
👍A 30g protein target at every meal.
👍 Plus strength training 2x per week
👍And for cardio we gradually increased to 12,000 steps per day.

That’s it.

No cutting carbs or extreme diets
Every week we focused on getting a little stronger.
A little fitter and a lot more consistent.

And then something happened.

Pooja stopped needing to pause halfway through a set just to catch her breath.

👏The woman who struggled to complete 3 reps was now confidently completing 10.
👏Her lifting technique improved.
👏Her stamina improved.
👏Her daily walks became easier.

And for the first time in years, she broke through the 96kg barrier that had been holding her back.

Today she’s down 8.15KG

But the biggest transformation isn’t the number on the scale.
It’s the confidence that comes from realising your thyroid isn’t the thing holding you back

And getting her stamina back to the point where she can effortlessly walk 12K steps daily and is almost able to walk up stairs without losing her breath!

The right strategy changes everything.

🙂‍↔️You don’t need to cut carbs.
🙂‍↔️You don’t need to do endless cardio.
🙂‍↔️And you don’t need to suffer your way to results.

You need a plan you can actually stick to.
