5 Fat Loss Habits For Busy People *No Fluff*


Hi Reader👋

It’s kind of ironic that I’m sending you this now — after missing last week’s email!


But honestly, I’ve been flat out busy myself lately… and that’s exactly why this topic is so relevant.

Because losing weight is hard enough — but when life is hectic? It can feel impossible.

Between work, family, and trying to keep it all together, it’s no wonder health takes a backseat.
But the truth is: you don’t need to do more — you just need to do what actually works.

In this week’s YouTube video, I’m sharing the 5 habits I teach my busiest clients (yes, even the ones who "don’t have time"). These are practical, real-life strategies that actually move the needle.

💥 Here’s a sneak peek:

  • The surprisingly “boring” eating tip that makes the biggest difference
  • How to use processed foods (yep!) to your advantage
  • What I say when clients ask: “Is protein really that important?”
  • Why exercise might not be the fat loss fix you think it is
  • The one habit I use every single week to stay on track

If you’ve been spinning your wheels, let this be your sign to stop overcomplicating things. This video might just be the reset you need.

(It’s under 20 minutes — perfect for your next coffee break!)


💌 As always, I love hearing from you. Let me know what topics or recipes you'd love me to cover next—or what you're struggling with most when it comes to eating well and feeling your best.

I always read and reply 💚

🌟Updates & Things I'm Loving This Week🌟

🍦I am obsessed with my Ninja Creami - I have the regular model, not the deluxe (slightly cheaper) and honestly it still does everything I need. I have 100% gotten my money’s worth because I use it so much. If you’re into ice cream-style desserts, it might be worth it — but if not, it’s a pretty big appliance to have sitting in the cupboard! I'll be sharing my go-to creami recipes over the next few weeks, life has just been a bit busy lately 🤣

💬 Email & YouTube replies: As you may already know, I reply to all my YouTube comments and emails - however I have been travelling a lot over the last few weeks and I have accumulated a bit of a backlog. If you’re waiting on a reply — I promise I’m not ignoring you! I truly appreciate your patience, and I’ll get back to you very soon. 💛

🥣 WHAT TO MAKE THIS WEEK! 🍽

Peach Ricotta Toast

With a honey whipped pistachio crumb!

This is the perfect weekend breakfast - probably not something I'd make during the week - cause were busy, busy 🤣

Hi friends👋 As a dietitian, I never set out to work in weight loss. Honestly? I have qualifications that go far beyond that — gut health, fertility, prenatal nutrition… I’ve spent years specialising in these areas. But the truth is, I kept getting asked for help with weight loss. And when I did? People got incredible results. So even though it wasn’t my original plan, I’ve leaned into it — because helping people lose weight in a realistic, compassionate, and sustainable way is something I...

Hi friend👋 Sharing an ugly truth about myself today. Everyone that watches me on YouTube remarks that I come across as a very nice person...but wait. I’m a nice person… until I’m hungry. And I know we all get a little hangry now and then, but trust me I'm particularly bad! And here’s the thing — I know I’m not alone. A lot of people try to lose weight or improve their health by eating less, and suddenly they’re tired, irritable, and just plain miserable. Not because they lack willpower, but...

Haemochromatosis Awareness Week

Hi friend👋 I want to talk about something a little different today — something really personal. A few years ago, I was diagnosed with haemochromatosis, also known as iron overload. It’s a genetic condition where your body stores too much iron — and over time, that excess iron builds up in your organs and can cause serious damage. Here’s the thing: I wasn’t alone. My dad has it. So does my sister. And both of my brothers. But despite all that, I still went undiagnosed until my late 20s. The...
