From Resistance to Response: Weight Loss in Menopause
In this free guide, I explain how hormonal change affects blood sugar, fat storage, and metabolism — and how personalised nutrition, guided by your blood chemistry, helps the body respond again.

This is a relaxed, no-pressure conversation to see if the Metabolic Balance® approach is the right fit for you.
You want to feel at home in your body again — not invisible inside it. You want your energy, confidence, and sense of self back, not another explanation for why this is “just how it is now.
But right now it feels confusing! You’re doing what used to work — and nothing is happening. Or worse, things are moving in the wrong direction.Â
I GET IT. THIS IS A REAL PHYSIOLOGICAL SHIFT - NOT A PERSONAL FAILURE. Â
Hi there, I'm Vanessa
Before I became a Nutritional Therapist, I spent over 15 years working as a lawyer — trained to think critically, question assumptions, and work with evidence. When my own health started declining, I needed to understand what was going on "under the bonnet". I went back to study for four years and I’ve now been a Registered Nutritionist for over a decade.
Today, I work with women in midlife who are navigating hormonal change and metabolic resistance — women who are disciplined, intelligent, and frustrated because effort no longer equals results.
Through the Metabolic Balance Program® , we use your individual blood chemistry to personalise nutrition — so we can stabilise blood sugar, reduce fat storage, and support your hormones in the phase of life you’re in now.
This isn’t a quick-fix diet or a short-term reset.
It’s a new way of eating for this stage of life — one that gives you clarity, structure, and the understanding to sustain results long-term.
Because when nutrition is personalised — and understood — the body responds again.
