Stubborn weight is hormonal imbalance. Fact.

I looked into nutrition habit coaching and built it into my business model because I saw too many women pretty much starving themselves without actually managing to lose weight. In my habit coaching we work on the following hormones: 🥨 Insulin: influenced by blood glucose, which in turn is influenced by diet, stress, sleep, exercise, sex hormones and more. Expect cravings, energy crashes and stubborn weight. 🥧Leptin: your satiety hormone. What's supposed to happen is the more fat you have, the less hungry you feel; it's a build-in fat regulation system. However, it often goes wrong and your body basically becomes deaf to its 'stop eating' signal. Expect persistent hunger. 🤦‍♀️ Oestrogen: declines gradually from your mid-30s making you more prone to weight gain, cravings, low mood, dryness and ageing. Expect stubborn weight and cravings. 🙅‍♀️ Testosterone: for some, it's too high and for others, it's too low. Expect weight issues and problems with sex drive. 😩 T4: your main thyroid hormone. Too little of this one and every cell in your body will run slower. Expect stubborn weight, constipation and fatigue. 😴 T3: your lesser-known (and lesser-tested) yet more active thyroid hormone. Frequently imbalanced causing hidden thyroid issues. Expect unexplained stubborn weight and fatigue (maybe some constipation too!) 😵 Cortisol: your key stress hormone. This pesky hormone is responsible for stubborn belly fat. Plus, when it's imbalanced it can throw ALL of the above hormones out of balance. Expect stubborn belly fat and cravings. Most women that I work with have an imbalance in every single hormone listed here. This is why you need a whole-body approach. This is why dieting isn't working for you. This is why you need to work with your body. Here's the thing... it IS possible for you to lose weight AND feel energised WITHOUT having to give up your favourite foods, feeling hungry all the time or having to count calories.
