Hi, I'm Lisa

I help busy women struggling with weight gain and hormone imbalances feel like themselves again by restoring balance to blood sugar, metabolism, and hormones—without fad diets or extreme restrictions.

Are you struggling with weight gain, fatigue, hormonal imbalances, or cravings that won’t go away?

You’re not alone—and more importantly, it’s not your fault.

Many women experience these challenges as they navigate perimenopause, hypothyroidism, PCOS, or other hormonal imbalances, and traditional diets just don’t work.

 

You need a hormone-focused, sustainable solution that gets to the underlying cause of your hormone imbalance and weight gain.

Why Dieting Alone Won’t Fix Your Weight

Hormonal health & weight loss solutions in Manchester & online

If you’ve been struggling with:

✔ Unexplained weight gain

Skin or digestive problems

✔ Constant fatigue or brain fog

✔ Frequent cravings and energy crashes

✔ PCOS, perimenopause, thyroid or other hormonal symptoms

✔ Difficulty losing weight despite dieting or exercise

It’s likely your hormones are out of balance—and that’s more common than you think. Approximately 25% of infertility cases are linked to ovulation disorders, often caused by hormonal imbalances like PCOS, thyroid dysfunction, or insulin resistance.
 

Hormonal imbalances can make weight loss feel impossible, increase cravings, and drain your energy, but the good news is, they can be corrected.

Why Weight Loss Struggles Aren’t About Willpower

No nonsense nutrition advice for weight loss & hormone balance

Here’s the truth: Dieting and exercise alone aren’t enough if your hormones aren’t in check.

When your hormones—like insulin, cortisol, progesterone, oestrogen, and thyroid hormones—are out of balance, your body works against you.

 

You might experience:

• Insulin resistance, which causes your body to store fat

• High cortisol levels from chronic stress, slowing down your metabolism

• Low thyroid function, making weight loss feel impossible

• Estrogen dominance, leading to stubborn belly fat

These hormonal imbalances are why your weight won’t budge, despite your best efforts. The real solution is to balance these hormones and support your metabolism, not just count calories or increase exercise.

Feel Your Best

Success stories from some of my happy clients

I help busy women struggling with weight gain and hormone imbalances like PCOS, hypothyroidism, and perimenopause to finally feel in control of their bodies again by rebalancing hormones and metabolism—without extreme diets or calorie counting.

 

Many of the women I work with share similar frustrations with their weight and hormones, but with a personalised nutrition plan they now feel more confident in their body and their favourite clothes!

"I had been dealing with PCOS and acne or years and felt completely stuck. When I tried the diet and lifestyle changes for hormone balance that Lisa recommended, everything slowly started to shift. Within two months, my period returned after being absent for seven months, my skin is clearing up and my PCOS symptoms have steadily improved ever since."

Nutrition & Health Coaching

Why health coaching is the missing link to lasting change

If you’ve tried every diet under the sun, only to end up back at square one, you’re not alone. The truth is, most plans focus on what to eat but don’t help you stay on track when life gets busy.

This isn’t about willpower. It’s about having the right support, accountability, and expert guidance to create real, lasting change.

 

If you want to stop feeling held back by your body and start seeing results, then my 60-Day Be Balanced Programme might be just what you need.

It’s perfect for women who:

✔ Want to lose weight without restrictive diets

✔ Are dealing with hormonal imbalances (PCOS, perimenopause, menopause, thyroid issues, etc.)

✔ Need a sustainable, long-term approach to health and wellness

✔ Are ready to take control of their health and wellbeing

What makes nutrition support for hormone health so important?

Hormones are the body’s chemical messengers, influencing everything from energy levels and weight regulation to mood, sleep, skin health and overall wellbeing. When hormones are out of balance, it can lead to a wide range of symptoms, including irregular periods, PMS, PMDD, PCOS, thyroid issues, weight gain, acne, mood swings, fatigue, and more. Good nutrition is one of the most powerful ways to support your hormones and regain balance. Here’s why: •Root Cause Support: Many hormonal imbalances are linked to diet and lifestyle factors, such as blood sugar instability, inflammation, or nutrient deficiencies. A tailored nutrition plan helps address these root causes. •Improved Symptoms: The right foods and nutrients can ease symptoms like bloating, cravings, low energy, or irregular cycles, giving your body the tools it needs to function optimally. •Prevention: Nutrition can help prevent long-term complications of hormone imbalances, such as metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. •Personalised Solutions: Everyone’s hormonal needs are different. Whether you’re dealing with PCOS, perimenopause, menopause, or thyroid issues, personalised nutrition ensures your plan is tailored to your unique symptoms and health goals. Through a functional medicine approach, I’ll help you understand what’s driving your symptoms and provide simple, achievable steps to improve your hormone health. By focusing on the right balance of foods, nutrients, and lifestyle changes, you can feel more energised, balanced, and in control of your health—no matter your age or stage of life. If you’re ready to stop struggling and start feeling better, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

What is Functional Medicine, and How Does It Shape My Approach?

Functional medicine is a root-cause approach to health that looks beyond symptoms to uncover why you’re experiencing hormonal imbalances, weight gain, fatigue, or digestive issues. Instead of simply treating symptoms, it focuses on identifying and addressing underlying imbalances in the body—such as nutrient deficiencies, blood sugar dysregulation, gut health issues, inflammation, or toxin exposure. How Does This Shape My Approach? Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all plan, I use functional nutrition principles to create a personalised strategy based on your body’s unique needs. By applying functional medicine principles, I help you create a sustainable, evidence-based approach to improving your health—without restrictive diets or quick fixes. My goal is to empower you with knowledge so you can feel in control of your body again.
