Is stress making you gain weight?

This is my reminder that I am not invincible to my PCOS 🥀🥀
High & constant bouts of stress can (and will) create a response under the skin that triggers bloating, weight gain & dysfunctional absorption of nutrients (that stops your hormones balancing & lets them go crazy). 😦😦😦😦 Plus other side effects too!

Even though I’m conscious of my stress levels & do everything to keep them as low as possible ⚡️⚡️ I can’t trick my body to think everything is okay. It could be physical stress but did you know emotional stress has the same effect too!

Stress & PCOS is a horrible combo. Never underestimate what it could be doing to you & similarly how effective it is to get results if you put focus into this part of your life.
------> I’ve literally seen clients be perfect in the gym & kitchen, but go nowhere because they are stressed to the eye balls. But I've seen things like weight fall off & periods return just by small improvements in this area. 😳😳 It really is worth considering!
Does your body hate stress like mine?

My favourite kitchen gadget is the Air Fryer!!
what's yours?

It makes my food so delicious AND I use it nearly every week because it has super powers!

-Faster meal prep to cook food that would take twice as long in the oven
-Can have it going on the bench while simultaneously baking other dishes
-Roasted veg brown and crisp up BETTER than the oven
-Keeps fat off my body & hormones happy without the unnecessary fat content (only need a little bit of oil)
-Adds so much flavour to bland vegetables so I’m more likely to eat them!

If you're wondering, yes I have taken this to hotels when I've been on vacation.
Are you with me on the air fryer team? Or do you think I’m crazy?

I'm here to give you hope that the body you have now can become a distant memory.

You can figure this out on your own if you find a good diet to stick to? ♥

I can pretend to be happy? ♥

If you’re trying to convince yourself of any of these things… 💔💔 how long do you think it’s going to take until you genuinely believe them? How much more heartache before you crumble in a heap & can’t pick yourself up anymore. 💔
When you work on your PCOS it takes guts to be able to look past these bull s**t pep talks that don’t work. 💛💛 It also takes someone to call you out & then show you how to navigate it when it’s all a bunch of confusion.

Don’t let your mind ruin the rest of your life. PCOS is not a death sentence.

There's nothing more exciting than making a huge dent in your body goals & PCOS when you had everything stacked against you.
🤜🤛

I understand it’s challenging to make progress on your own, 🪨🪨 even when you know what to do.
It’s the high-level support & accountability 🌻 that help you succeed, so I stick around as long as you need. It's not about ‘bossing’ you around, but ensuring your intentions stick once you've mastered the ‘educational pillars’ of how to help yourself.
🥀🥀 I know it takes time to fix & heal years of problems. During our video chats, we not only reflect on your previous success but also plan for the future.
♥ We set goals & celebrate small wins that will ultimately lead to even bigger successes. ♥

I always ask for feedback so I can continuously improve as your coach.
---≽ 💎 One of my clients, Nicole, recently surprised me during our catch up call. She appreciates how I call out her excuses & push her to achieve her goals. She feels listened to & supported, even when she makes mistakes.
𝙉𝙞𝙘𝙤𝙡𝙚 𝙖𝙘𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬𝙡𝙚𝙙𝙜𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙢𝙮 𝙜𝙪𝙞𝙙𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚, 𝙨𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙜𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙣 𝙪𝙥 𝙖𝙡𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙮.

-------
I value the openness & vulnerability of my clients. In just 14 weeks, Nicole went from feeling depleted every day to having hella energy & focus. She made significant progress in addressing her biggest challenges, such as prioritizing self-care after years of putting others first.
-------
Nicole's transformation 🌻 would not have been possible without her willingness to be open to feedback & trust in me. 🌻 Your experience & success with me will be awesome too if you meet me halfway & allow yourself to be lead through difficult times.

Eating the same thing might be easier, but it will eventually be the reason you’re not changing. Take it from someone who wants you to get on top of your struggles.

06/02/2024

🥀🥀You just want to tell someone how much you’re struggling with your PCOS. But you kinda have no idea what’s really going to explain it properly without sounding like a winge?

You picture yourself stumbling trying to explain the unexplainable. So you decide to say nothing? 🤐
The suffering is probably killing you (like it did with me) & it’s made all that much worse by the frustration, confusion & exhaustion right!!!

Have you ever had a moment similar where you held back because you thought you’d come across like a whinge?
-----> Was it a friend, Dr or someone else close to you?

Have you wondered how I (and my gorgeous clients) manage to eat more, workout less & get better results with our PCOS symptoms & weight?
Here is the process explained in real-girl terms.
🌯 Years of dieting, not eating enough or cutting out food groups cause you metabolic & hormonal depletion. LOTS of nutritious food is one of the quickest ways to restore it.
🚴 Those exhausting workouts meant your body was fighting to endure and recover so any left over energy is what you had to survive on. A prescribed workout means you can push yourself, but in a way that we are designed to THRIVE.
When your do the above:
😲It won’t fear being caught in starvation mode (diets)... so it will let go of unwanted fat and use the energy to repair your hormones.
😲Your body has a chance to get stronger, more agile and lets you walk out the door feeling confident to go about your day.

Don’t get swept up in the hype thinking health & weight loss with PCOS is complicated.
It’s the simple, no tricks, no hidden secrets that give you the biggest reward.

26/01/2024

I understand that a one sized PCOS weight loss diet won’t work for you.
Each woman has their own starting point, struggles and symptoms that need extra special attention. Perhaps this is why you’ve failed in the past.
👉👉 The Anti-Diet PCOS Solution is the personalised guidance you need to break through the thoughts of “this won’t work for me”.
It’s like a secret weapon against self doubt!
I’m gonna bet you can envision the person you want to be, the life you want… 😰😰 but have no damn idea in how to realistically get there when you struggle with so much. It’s easy to think you’ll fail at this too!

Your dream body isn’t too far fetched & your PCOS isn’t the problem. 💓💓 It’s likely your lack of knowledge, confidence & support to help bridge the gap between the person you are now to who you want to be. Maybe you think it won’t work coz you have no idea how to start your journey so it all works out… that’s why I’m here.
It’s ok to have previous failures, the right coach can relate to your pain too & knows how to help you get past it. You can bring your ‘diet’ scars to The Anti-Diet PCOS Solution program we all have them! 💓

Me?
I was diagnosed at the ripe age of 26 but I had struggled for probably a decade before that.

✔️Periods
✔️Energy
✔️Skin breakouts
✔️Thin hair on my head but too much everywhere else

Truth is that I actually want to get to know you beyond the posts & videos. I want to know who you are & what you’re going through.

“That’s not your PCOS Megs, that’s the excuse you’ve been telling yourself for years”
👆👆 One of the most hard hitting feedback I ever got when I was about 6 months into my transformation. Circa 10yrs ago now 🤯
Backstory - I was complaining to my coach about not making any recent progress with my weight and felt my fatigue slide back into my life
But really….
⚡️I'd slid backwards in meal prepping. I'd started winging it like the old me.
⚡️I'd started missing workouts
⚡️I was staying up later on my phone & not getting the same amount of sleep.

Eventually I whipped out the classic “it’s my PCOS, i’ll never change” excuse I was used to making.
However, I had simply gotten complacent and was trying to get the same results by doing less.
She called my bulls**t straight up. 😳😳
Would you believe that I got so defensive! I couldn’t believe her nerve!
This was a huge lesson for me to learn. I’d been buying cookie cutter programs, coaches telling me what I wanted to hear or ghosting!
I’d never had someone be completely honest with me 💛💛 in a space where the same honesty lead into genuine help & personal growth that had nothing to do with my condition!
💛💛 Putting my pride aside & admitting failures along the way (when you’re trying so hard) is something I later came to appreciate.

I grew to love someone calling out my excuses purely because it taught me to recognise my own sabotaging ways & be resilient to letting it affect my healthy ambitions. Without this, I never would’ve had such long term success with my body.
💕💕 This is a story of my own success💕💕 but also one of the reasons I’m now renowned as the coach who says it like it is & won’t let you get away with your crap either!

❌❌you know it’s time to think about your health now that Xmas & New Year have gone
?? Where should you start when you’re struggling to stop the cycle of gorging on all the festive food?
My tip is to get back on the healthy horse as quickly as possible.
Here are your options to make your intentions stick. 🫡
👇👇👇👇
💥Throw out all the left over crap - it might be a waste of food, but it is ok that your waist is growing as well? You know the answer

💥Put together a shopping list of healthy meals & do a solid meal prep before the week is out. Just like the chocolates, if the food is there you know you will eat it so it may as well be delicious AND healthy.
💥If you’re stuck for recipes the link in my bio will lead you to my cook book. It has over 250 recipes that I endorse for PCOS & weight loss
=
💥Don’t put it off till next week, start it NOW.
Which option are you picking?

On the way to get your sneakers, you briefly recall how the old you would’ve start panicking. 6 months ago, leaving the house required energy you didn’t have and agreeing to go on the provision it was something low key like lunch or coffee.

6months ago 🌟🌟 you would avoid anything more because your aching body always reminded you of things you couldn’t do. It was better to stay at home than, embarrass yourself.
The thought quickly vanishes because it’s a gorgeous day and that trail walk to through the national park is supposed to have amazing views! You’re excited!
PCOS isn’t supposed to kill your life but it sure infiltrates in ways that make you feel completely alone. It’s a silent killer to your happiness.
My clients tell me they want to lose weight and get their body back. It’s never to see a particular number on the scale, it’s because they don’t want to hesitate or miss out when these opportunities come up. 💋🧡
You’re typically exhausted trying to come up with other ideas to mask the fact you can’t do something, when deep down you want to be a “YES let’s go!” gal.
🤔🤔What would be the first thing you would do if your body was capable?
