The Story behind Off The Scale

 

Every Coach Has a Story

Every coach has a story, a reason that drives what they do.
For me, it began long before I ever imagined creating a program like this. It started with my own health struggle, a time when my body felt completely out of balance and I couldn’t understand why.

Around 20 years ago, I was struggling with constant energy crashes, dizziness, and intense sugar cravings. My doctor told me everything looked “normal,” but I knew something wasn’t right.

After seeking help from a specialist nutrition coach, I finally got the answers I needed. Through proper testing and personalised guidance, I learned that my issues were caused by unstable blood-sugar levels and reactive hypoglycaemia.

Going to a health coach and getting to the root cause of the problem completely changed my health. It not only gave me back my energy and stability, but it also sparked a deep passion to help others take control of their own health and truly understand how their bodies work.

One of the most surprising things my coach told me was to start eating green bananas, a natural source of resistant starch. It sounded unusual at first, but it became one of the biggest things that changed everything for me.

 By following that advice and adjusting my diet to support blood-sugar balance, my energy and focus returned, and I finally felt well again.

 That experience inspired me to train as a nutrition coach so I could help others achieve the same results.

From Passion to Practice

Over the years that followed, I continued to give clients and friends nutrition and lifestyle advice whenever I could. Even while running other businesses and working as an aesthetic practitioner, I naturally found myself helping people understand how food, mindset, and routine affected their health and skin, because I saw how much of a difference it made.

When GLP-1 medications became available, I witnessed first-hand how life-changing they could be. But I also saw how many people felt unsupported or unsure about how to manage their nutrition, side effects, and progress while using them.

That motivated me to retrain as a nutrition and weight-loss coach specialising in GLP-1 medications, combining my passion for nutrition with the latest evidence in medical weight management.

During this training, I studied the science behind resistant starches in more depth and realised how strongly they link to the body’s natural GLP-1 response.

It was a lightbulb moment: everything I had learned from my own recovery years earlier now connected perfectly with the new science behind GLP-1 weight-loss success.

One key thing I realised was that GLP-1 medications can suppress the body’s own natural GLP-1 production over time. That meant that once people came off the medication, their natural hormone response could be slower to recover, making it harder to maintain results. I wanted to change that.

Building The RS-1 Plan and Off The Scale

So I built my entire program around supporting and reactivating the body’s natural GLP-1 through food, particularly through resistant starches.

From this, The RS-1 Plan was born: a powerful, science-backed nutrition approach designed to naturally stimulate GLP-1, balance blood sugar, and even enhance how well GLP-1 medications work while you are on them.

When I began seeing clients for GLP-1 coaching, I wanted to give them everything they needed to succeed, from nutrition guidance and side-effect management to mindset and lifestyle support.

I initially created a client guide to help them through the process, but as I worked with more people, the content kept growing.

Over time, that simple guide developed into a complete, structured system, one that covered every stage of the GLP-1 journey, before, during, and after medication.

Through experience and refinement, it evolved into what is now Off The Scale, a comprehensive, supportive program that gives you all the tools, strategies, and confidence to succeed.

This program is the result of years of research, training, and real-world experience.
It is designed to give you everything you need at every stage of your journey.

No one is left guessing.
No one feels alone.

Instead, it represents my own journey — from personal health struggle to professional purpose — and my commitment to helping others understand their bodies, restore balance, and thrive with knowledge and confidence.
