Eating less, skipping treats and trying to exercise more, yet the weight still refuses to move, is becoming an increasingly common frustration for many, according to local weight loss coach Grace, who says the issue is often not a lack of willpower, but a slowing metabolism.
“When metabolism slows, the body starts storing fat more easily, cravings increase, energy drops, and weight loss becomes much harder,” Grace explains. “A lot of people are blaming themselves when the real issue is that their metabolism is no longer working efficiently.”
Grace says many people unknowingly make the problem worse by under-eating and over-exercising in an effort to lose weight quickly. While this may work temporarily, it can lead to muscle loss, fatigue, hormone imbalance and even slower fat burning over time.
Her five and 10-week programmes focus on restoring metabolism and helping the body return to effective fat burning. Participants receive structured seven-day meal plans using normal, everyday foods, tailored exercise guidance, weekly one-to-one weigh-ins and ongoing support throughout the programme.
The programme is particularly suitable for people struggling with hormonal weight gain, menopause-related weight, thyroid issues, post-pregnancy weight, cravings, low energy and poor sleep.
Clients across Galway have already seen strong results. “I lost 26lbs in 10 weeks. Best decision I ever made — my energy is through the roof,” said Anthony from Athenry. Fiona from Barna said the programme “gave me structure and routine,” adding that she “ate more food and still lost a stone.”
With summer approaching and places limited, early booking is advised for the next programme starting on June 24.
