#347 - From Exhausted to Empowered: How This 43-Year-Old Lost 80lbs & Took Back Her Life with Annette
She lost 81 lbs and dropped her body fat in HALF… but the real transformation? That was internal.When Annette first came across my content, she’d already tried it all, Whole30, keto, intermittent fasting. She was eating “healthy,” had a background in nutritional therapy, but was miserable in her body.Then came the Easter tree swing moment.She was with her nephew and couldn’t do something as simple as swinging from a rope without fear and a painful injury because her body didn’t feel strong enough.That was the turning point.She joined the program at 229 lbs. Today? She’s sitting at 148, her body fat dropped from 53% to 27%, and she just packed her own food to spend a week at a foster kids camp where she felt energised and in control.But here’s what really got me…She said the biggest shift wasn’t just her body it was learning to listen to it.To slow down.To process emotions instead of pushing them aside.To understand that weight stalls aren’t always physical sometimes it’s about what you’re not allowing yourself to feel.She used to be the girl who thought she’d never be consistent and look like this.Now she’s strong, empowered, sleeping well, symptom-free in her 40s, and lifting heavy AF in the gym.Oh and she went from a size 16 to a size 4.But what I love most?She’s living proof that it’s never too late to become the version of yourself you didn’t even know was possible.RESOURCES + LINKSRebuild Your Metabolism Method: 28 Day ChallengeLearn more about our Winatlife Coaching optionsSaturée products use discount code KITTY20 for 20% off your first order.Pro-Metabolic Company use discount code KITTY20 for 20% off your first purchase.Drop Us A Review On The Podcast + Post a screenshot on Instagram stories and Tag @kittyblomfield for your chance to win a tub of Saturée Premium CollagenReview on SpotifyFOLLOWKitty Blomfield @kittyblomfieldCraig McDonald @iamcraigmcdonaldAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

#343 - From Hormonal Chaos to Lean & Strong at 44: Irene’s Perimenopause Transformation with Irene Laney
Irene came to us at 44, a chef, yoga instructor, business owner, and completely overwhelmed.✔️ She moved her body constantly between the kitchen and yoga, she wasn’t sedentary and felt like she was eating healthyBut here’s what was really going on behind the scenes:❌ She couldn’t stop gaining weight❌ Her body felt soft, inflamed, and unfamiliar❌ Her IUD masked her cycle but the rage, hot flashes, and exhaustion were driving her mad!She told me:“I felt like I was outside of my own body. I couldn’t stop the anger. I was bleeding for months. I didn’t even know when I was cycling anymore. I just wanted my boys to still like me, and my husband to still want to be around me.”And the worst part? Every doctor told her she was “fine.” That there was “nothing we can do.”She saw a photo of herself and thought, “I can’t live like this anymore.”That’s when she found us.Here’s what we did using the RYM Method:1️⃣ We set calorie and macro targets tailored to her goals to make sure she was eating enough to fuel her body and support her hormones. We also added in pro-metabolic, nutrient-dense foods like bioavailable animal proteins, eggs, dairy, fruit, fresh juice, root veggies, saturated fats, liver, seafood, and salt2️⃣ We removed the guesswork and built a home training program tailored to her schedule as a busy mum and entrepreneur3️⃣ We focused on building muscle (not burning calories), with progressive overload, form checks, and training videos she could follow from home4️⃣ We helped her transition off the IUD and support her hormones naturally, no more bleeding for months, no more rage outbursts, no more hot flashesThe result?🔥 10% ⬇️ body fat🔥 7 lbs muscle gained🔥 Regular cycles (for the first time in years)🔥 No more rage, hot flashes, or “out-of-body” anxiety🔥 A stronger, more confident bodyAnd she did it all without cutting carbs, sugar, or dairy.This is what happens when you stop chasing quick fixes…And start working with your body especially in perimenopause.RESOURCES + LINKSRebuild Your Metabolism Method: 28 Day ChallengeLearn more about our Winatlife Coaching optionsSaturée products use discount code KITTY20 for 20% off your first order.Pro-Metabolic Company use discount code KITTY20 for 20% off your first purchase.Drop Us A Review On The Podcast + Post a screenshot on Instagram stories and Tag @kittyblomfield for your chance to win a tub of Saturée Premium CollagenReview on SpotifyFOLLOWKitty Blomfield @kittyblomfieldCraig McDonald @iamcraigmcdonaldAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

#338 - The Fat Loss Mindf*ck: What No One Tells Women About Losing Weight Over 40 with Craig McDonald
We’re back on the mic! 🎙️It’s been a minute since we dropped a podcast... and not because we were sipping cocktails on the beach in Thailand (I wish 🤪). We’ve been balls deep in finishing the last bit of development for our app (so stoked it's finished and it's fucking amazing we've been getting so much great feedback from clients as well as amazing results), supporting our 28 Day Challenge ladies, and coaching the hell out of our 1-on-1 and group clients. Because at the end of the day our clients always come first.But I finally dragged Craig into another episode (after about 5 false starts and several swears 😂) because this convo is just too important to put off any longer.If you're:→ Doing everything “right” and still not losing weight→ Seeing no change on the scale and ready to give up→ Thinking your metabolism is broken→ Confused about why your body won’t change or what the hell you should be doing to see results...You need to hear this episode.We dive into:✅ Why the scale is NOT the best measure of progress✅ How to tell if you're actually losing fat or gaining muscle✅ The mindset shift you NEED to make to stop sabotaging yourself✅ What data to track if you want sustainable results after 40✅ Why you're probably under-muscled (and what to do about it)This one’s real, raw, and filled with lightbulb moments 💡RESOURCES + LINKSRebuild Your Metabolism Method: 28 Day ChallengeLearn more about our Winatlife Coaching optionsSaturée products use discount code KITTY20 for 20% off your first order.Pro-Metabolic Company use discount code KITTY20 for 20% off your first purchase.Drop Us A Review On The Podcast + Post a screenshot on Instagram stories and Tag @kittyblomfield for your chance to win a tub of Saturée Premium CollagenReview on SpotifyFOLLOWKitty Blomfield @kittyblomfieldCraig McDonald @iamcraigmcdonaldAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
