#104 - Things we want to leave in 2025

Things we're leaving in 2025.

In this episode, myself, Mercedes, and Remi sit down and share what's not coming with us into the new year - the habits, the mindsets, and the approaches that haven't been serving us.

From trying to do it all alone to the all-or-nothing thinking that keeps the yo-yo spinning, we get honest about what needs to go.

If you're ready to start 2026 differently, this one's for you.

#102 - The Christmas advice you won't hear from most coaches

Christmas doesn’t need to derail how you feel or force a January reset.

In this episode, we share simple, healthy boundaries that help you enjoy the day fully without feeling sluggish or overdoing it.

This isn’t about weight loss, but about keeping momentum, avoiding the restart tax, and feeling good in yourself.

A calmer, more intentional way to eat, drink, and enjoy Christmas without guilt or restriction.

#100 - Staying the course when nothing is changing

Most people quit right before the compound effect kicks in.

They're looking for instant results, and when the scales don't move after a week of effort, they throw in the towel.

But here's the truth: the work you're doing today doesn't benefit you today - it benefits future you.

In this episode, I break down the difference between consistency and persistence, why both are essential for lasting weight loss, and how to stay the course even when nothing seems to be happening.

If you've ever started strong and given up too soon, this one's for you. Stop quitting before it works.

#99 - Are you looking for reasons to quit?

Ever catch yourself looking for reasons to quit when things get hard?

In this episode, I'm breaking down the mindset shift that separates people who fold under pressure from people who build the life they actually want.

We're talking about why the "self-care" that feels good in the moment often makes tomorrow harder, what you're really doing when you choose the easy option, and how to stop making permanent decisions based on temporary conditions.

If you've ever used chaos as an excuse to abandon your goals, this one's for you. Head to fatlossfundamentals.co.uk if this resonates - let's build your climate, not just survive the weather.

#98 - MUST listen for every menopausal woman

In this episode I explain what’s really happening during menopause, why symptoms like hot flushes, poor sleep and joint pain make weight loss harder, and the common mistake most women make that only makes things worse.

#96 - Weight loss Instagram vs reality

We all have an idea in our head of what weight loss will look like. Motivation, results, support… job done.

But the reality? It’s a bit messier than that.
In this episode I break down what Instagram doesn’t show you - the hard truths that catch most people off guard.
From body image to maintenance, social pressure to self-doubt, this is the stuff that actually makes or breaks your journey.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re the only one finding it hard, this one’s for you.

#95 - How "range targets" stop all or nothing dieting

In this episode, I discuss why all-or-nothing thinking keeps you trapped in endless diet restarts and introduce the concept of range targets.

Discover the neuroscience behind why rigid calorie counting fails, learn how your daily capacity fluctuates (and why that's completely normal), and get introduced to the Traffic Light Framework that's transformed how my clients approach sustainable weight loss.

If you're ready to break free from perfectionist thinking and build a sustainable approach that works with your real life, this episode will shift everything.

#94 - Listen to this if you are on/considering using GLP-1s

In this episode, I’m diving into the rise of weight loss injections and why more women than ever are coming off them and asking, “What now?”

I discuss the genuine health benefits for the right people, but also the risks when they’re used without lifestyle changes.

I share why fitness, strength and daily habits still matter, even when the weight is coming off easily and unpack the marketing machine behind GLP-1s, including influencer commissions and celebrity endorsements.

And yes, I’ll say what we’re all thinking: why are these drugs being pushed to healthy-weight women?

At the end, I walk through crucial tips if you’re currently on the medication...

No judgement. Just honest, balanced insight to help you stay healthy for life.

#93 - The case FOR quick fat loss

“Lose it slow if you want to keep it off”...you’ve probably heard that before.
But is slow weight loss always the best route? Not necessarily.

In this episode, I sit down with Coach Natalie to unpack the truth about quick weight loss:

  • When it’s the perfect approach to strike while the iron’s hot

  • When it can backfire and actually set you up for a rebound

  • How to know if you are in the right season of life to push harder

  • The non-negotiable plan you must have after the diet to keep your results

If you’re ready to make progress at a pace that excites you — without falling into the yo-yo cycle — this episode will help you figure out your best strategy.

#91 - How to shut down your excuses

Excuses are part of the process. No matter how “ready” you are, how simple your fat loss plan is, or how perfect life seems - those little voices still show up.


In this episode, I’m walking you through exactly what to do when those excuses hit (because they will).


You’ll learn why your brain is wired to protect you from discomfort, how to spot the moments you usually quit, and how to train yourself to think and act like the version of you who gets results - even on the hard days.


And if you’re ready to get better at this - with support, structure, accountability and coaching - the next round of the 10 Week Turnaround opens on 24th August.

#90 - Is less more for weight loss?

What if the reason you're not losing weight… is because you're doing too much?


In this episode, I share a powerful story from a recent catch-up with a friend who lost weight by scaling back — not pushing harder. We’ll dive into how relentless cardio, chronic dieting, and overtraining can actually backfire, especially for women navigating midlife and menopause.


If you’ve been feeling stuck, inflamed, exhausted, or constantly hungry despite “doing everything right,” this one’s for you.

#89 - How to lose weight as a 9-5 worker

Stuck behind a desk all day? Exhausted by 6pm and face-deep in snacks by 8?


In this episode, I sat down with our newest Fat Loss Fundamentals coach, Natalie, to answer the weight loss questions every busy professional woman wants to ask—but rarely gets a straight answer to.


We unpack why your willpower isn’t broken (even if it feels like it), how to stop the after-work binge spiral, and what to do when you’re too wiped out to cook—let alone track macros.


You’ll learn how to lose fat without becoming “that person” who packs Tupperware for brunch. Whether you’ve had a ‘bad’ week or you just want to stop eating your feelings after a rough meeting, this one’s for you.

#88 - Losing weight won't make you happy unless you do this

Most women think they just need to keep grinding harder.

More discipline. More hustle. More pressure.


But the truth is, if you don’t stop to celebrate yourself along the way, no amount of weight loss will ever feel like enough.


In today’s episode, I’m breaking down the two seasons of real transformation — Investment Season and Harvest Season — and showing you why both are essential if you want lasting change.


I’ll also give you practical ways to reward yourself without food, how to celebrate non-scale victories, and why recognising your growth is the secret to changing your identity for good.


Because you didn’t start this journey to feel miserable. You started it to feel proud.

#87 - My biggest mistakes as a coach

When I first started coaching, I made every mistake you could imagine.


I sugar-coated the truth about fat loss. I was scared to talk about weight. I let clients off the hook because I didn’t want to hurt their feelings. And I tried to help everyone instead of showing up as my real self.


In this episode, I’m sharing exactly what I got wrong, how it changed me as a coach, and why it’s made me better at helping women like you.


If you’re sick of false promises, watered-down advice, and being made to feel like you’re failing when things get hard, you’ll want to listen to this.


Because real fat loss is messy sometimes.

Real change takes work.

And if you’re ready to do it differently, I can help.

In this episode, I’m breaking them all down—what they are, why they matter, and how you can start using them as bridges to your own lasting weight loss. These are the exact habits that helped me—and thousands of others—ditch the guilt, build confidence, and finally feel in control.
