Testimonals
‘Wendy helped me consider which foods to consume for better health. We also looked at barriers to weight loss and put into place strategies to help me with my main goal of better metabolic health and ultimately coming off my diabetes medication. We also discussed appropriate exercise and how building muscle helps with metabolism. Wendy is very genuine, professional, and I highly recommend her!’

‘Wendy listens, really listens! She brings her own lived experience to quickly identify the barriers that we have developed over time to prevent and maintain a health weight. She is friendly, supportive, and knowledgeable and I have no hesitation in recommending her as someone who really understands your individual needs and can help you achieve your health goals.’

My goal is to help you change your relationship with food and realise good health using the power of low-carbohydrate living – with food and movement as medicine.
If required, I team up with your doctor to ensure your health is looked after every step of the way. It is quite amazing how quickly your body responds to a low-carbohydrate diet. If you’re on medication for type II diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or other chronic disease, it is imperative to consult with your doctor as your medication level may need altering as your metabolic health improves.
Like anything you wish to achieve, you have to make a commitment to yourself to make changes in your life to ensure success, and always have the right goals for weight loss in mind.
We all know how easy it is to gain weight, but losing it is a slower process that we must accept. SMART goals are really important in many aspects of our life, and it’s no different when we wish to shed excess body fat. I will help you set realistic achievable, short-term (10 weeks), medium-term (26 weeks), and long-term (52 weeks) goals that are specific to YOU!
Rapid weight loss can be achieved (particularly if you have a lot of body fat to lose) using a ketogenic diet. Usually in the first few weeks then an average of 0.5-1 kg is achievable weekly. But unless you change habits and your relationship with food along the way, the weight will soon creep back on. This style of eating also helps with cravings and overeating.
Another important thing to consider is your gut health. If your diet has been mainly made up of takeaway foods or highly processed foods, your gut will need repopulating with good bacteria. This is easy to do when consuming a wide variety of meats, diary, fruits, and vegetables.
