The more we focus on losing the belly fat, the harder it becomes. The more we poke and prod and hate what we see, the more disconnected we become and the less nourishing our habits feel.

The more we set our expectations too high, the greater the climb to get back up each time we fall off the horse.

A kinder, more thoughtful look at things rarely pushes us to click the buy now button, as the promises methods to 'fix you quick' put out there are so much more compelling.

It's hard to get your head around the power of working smarter, not harder. To seek to understand, rather than judge. To work from the inside out, not the other way around.

It's been lovely to welcome the wonderful group of women into the spring season of the anchor collective this week. To take all the freshness and vigour of spring and use that to guide us into a new way of looking at our lives, habits and goals.

If you're one of those women hello 👋
If you'd like to be, or you're curious about how else it can be done just send me a DM and we can chew it over.

Happy International Women's Day gorgeous ladies 😘

Confused about how to better your gut health and what's worth forking out money for?

Here are a few tips:

Fruit and veg whether it's something exotic in the fresh food aisle or peas in the frozen food section, go a long way to supporting a healthy gut.

In the UK we're severely lacking fibre but every little helps as they say...

Variety is key so pimp up meals with nuts/seeds/herbs/spices/dried fruit.

Chuck some chickpeas in your spag bol

Pop some sweetcorn on the plate next to an oven meal.

Snack on a banana (and no you don't have to dress it first)

Don't worry about products making claims that they're essential for your gut health. Bananas would make claims too if they had a good label and a PR department!

Menopause specific tips to follow tomorrow...

And for more no nonsense calming advice, come into my email community. Comment NOURISH below and I'll reach out 😊

P.s. great to see with being repeated on BBC1 🙌

Don't stress about gut health products making all sorts of claims including claiming they're superior. The banana would do the same if it had a food label and a PR department.

We always put a lot of pressure on ourselves on Sundays don't we as we set good intentions for the week ahead. But by Wednesday those familiar patterns and critical voices have usually come back.

Often shifting perspective brings more positive solutions.

I promise it's not you. It's the culture running through our veins.

Time to change the conversation out there, but also in your own head.

Here to help if you need support to do just that. 🤗

Why does fat tissue get all the attention? Muscles and bones need some too.

We’ve become obsessed with shrinking fat tissue as if that’s the only marker of health.

But in midlife, muscle and bone are crying out for investment.

💪Muscle keeps our metabolism ticking over.
💪It improves insulin sensitivity.
💪It supports steadier blood sugar and energy, which in turn helps steady mood.
💪It protects our joints.

🦴 Bone gives us structure, strength and longevity.

Neither of them respond well to chronic dieting, under-fuelling or punishing exercise plans.

They respond to:
💚 Enough protein
💚 Resistance training
💚 Adequate energy
💚 Rest
💚 Consistency over extremes

If all our energy is going into trying to make fat tissue smaller, we risk neglecting the very tissues that protect us as we age.
Health in menopause isn’t about erasing yourself.
It’s about building yourself.

Who’s with me in looking after our whole selves?

🤗🙏

It's all gone a bit mad in my opinion so let's bring things back to some calm and context 💚

Is it OK to be fat?

This debate keeps resurfacing and dividing opinion into 2 loud camps:

“Fat causes poor health.”
“Fat people can be healthy.”

After 25 years working in weight management, here’s what I’ve learnt:

It’s not simple.

Yes - fat tissue can influence health markers.

And yes, weight loss can improve certain outcomes.

But so can:
💚 Reducing chronic stress
💚 Preserving muscle mass
💚 Eating consistently
💚 Sleeping properly
💚 Regulating your nervous system
💚 Not living in a cycle of restriction and regain

What rarely gets discussed is the cost of chasing weight loss at all costs, and being repeatedly told to go and achieve it, as if it were as simple as stubbing your toe!

Repeated dieting isn’t neutral.
Weight cycling isn’t neutral.
Shame isn’t neutral.

The harder we push, the more the mind and body tend to fight back.

That doesn’t mean giving up on health.

It means asking a better question:

How do I support my health without going to war with my body?

That’s a very different starting point.

And for many midlife women, it’s a much more sustainable one.

If you’re ready for a calmer way to care for your health in midlife, the Anchor Collective is open (details in bio)

Meanwhile stuck around if you this message has struck a chord 💖💚

It's not the what, but the how, that needs attention sometimes. 💖💚

They're just so damn tasty 🤣 especially if you're hungry at kids tea time and grown up tea feels a long way off!

Anyone else partial to a cheeky fish finger? Particularly good in a sandwich too I find 😋

Keen to feel like a normal human and not like you're failing all the time? Grab your slippers and hang out here where we navigate nourishing ourselves in the real world. 🤗💚💫

Food is not the problem. You are not the problem

The constant overwhelm, food guilt and dieting rules are the problem.

Diets create more problems than they solve.

Don't let dieting rule your year.

For calmer and more peaceful ways to feel in control, come on in and give me .dietitian a follow, it's lovely to have you here. 💖💚🤗
