I see you

I know what it's like to feel unhappy in your body.

To try all of the things, lose a couple of kilos, then watch it pile back on. Keto, fasting, paleo: it gets so confusing, and the tricks that used to work just don't work anymore after 40.

You don't understand why the weight won't shift. You just want a clear plan so you know exactly what to do, and to fit into your favourite clothes again.

Those extra kilos are stopping you from living the life you want, and you're ready to change that.

The real problem

Fat loss is not as simple as calories in, calories out.

Eat less, move more backfires after 40. There is more going on under the surface, and it is rarely about willpower.

Hidden insulin spikes

The wrong foods raise insulin, which promotes fat storage and quietly blocks fat burning.

Silent inflammation

Some foods trigger inflammation in your body, another brake on the weight you are trying to release.

Hormones working against you

Thyroid issues and hormone imbalances common in perimenopause can stack the odds against you.

You don't need another diet. You need a metabolism reset.

Welcome to Metabolic Balance®

A plan as unique as your fingerprint.

Metabolic Balance® is built on a simple idea: given the right nutrients, your body can produce its own ideal balance of hormones and enzymes for a healthy metabolism. That means happier hormones and weight that releases more easily.

Your plan is drawn from a balanced range of natural foods, individually selected to match your body chemistry, and paired with my coaching and support for the best chance of success.

Entirely food-based. No shakes, no bars, no fake foods. Just fresh whole foods chosen for your biochemistry and your preferences.

Because it is built on real food, when the formal program ends there is no ongoing cost. You keep your plan for life.

So how does it work?

5 steps from confused to in control.

  1. 1

    Your free Introduction call

    We start with a relaxed call to map where your health is now and decide together whether Metabolic Balance® is the right fit for you. No pressure, no enrolment on the call.

  2. 2

    Your scientific blood analysis

    I order a comprehensive analysis of around 35 of your own blood values, combined with your full health profile. Your body, not a generic template, sets the plan.

  3. 3

    Your personalised nutrition plan

    Your plan is generated from your biochemistry, with the exact foods, portions and meal timing that suit you. As unique as your fingerprint.

  4. 4

    Clinical support and coaching

    Individual video consultations and mindset coaching with me by your side, so you are never working it out alone.

  5. 5

    Your body finds its balance

    Hormones rebalance, inflammation reduces, energy lifts and weight is released, with progress confirmed through follow-up blood testing.

Down 10kg

I worked with Susie through the Metabolic Balance program and, with her guidance and knowledge, I lost 10kg. Susie was clear, practical and supportive, which made the program manageable and easy to follow. Understanding that my body really had changed, but that I did not have to give in to menopause, was enlightening. Now I have a new set of habits and I am back in control.

It's by far the easiest diet I have ever done. Real food and the support from Susie made all the difference, and I've finally found something I can sustain long term. I've not felt this good in years. She's worth every penny.

How to start

It begins with a free Introduction call.

Book your complimentary Introduction call so we can make sure Metabolic Balance® is right for you before you commit to anything.

It is a relaxed conversation about your health and your goals. There is no enrolment on the call. If it is a good fit, I send you the next steps afterwards.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, answered.

So many women come into this program after trying everything and feeling like they have failed. The difference here is the support. You essentially have me on tap for 12 weeks, with the option of weekly coaching, and we work on the mindset side too, which is critical for lasting change.

Absolutely not. Calorie counting is soooo last century. Your plan has your ideal portions already worked out from your own blood chemistry, so there is no counting, weighing or guesswork.

It is far more than that. Many women use Metabolic Balance® to support hormone balance, thyroid conditions, blood pressure and menstrual concerns. We can talk through your specific goals on your free Introduction call.

I hear you. A little food prep each week makes life much easier, and the feedback I get is that it is far simpler than women expect. Most feel so much more energetic that the small amount of prep more than pays for itself.

Yes, absolutely. We can talk through the options on your call.

Metabolic Balance® is highly customised and generated specifically for each person. It is not a one-size-fits-all approach, so I need a short chat to make sure it is genuinely right for you. There is no enrolment on the call. I only send the enrolment link afterwards if you are a suitable candidate.
