Conquer the Over-40 Body | Discover the Missing Secrets of Weight-Loss | Transform for Life

Take Control of Your Weight, Health and Confidence

Are you feeling trapped by any of the following:

  • Feeling self-conscious, dealing with body shame or low self-esteem, or avoiding social situations?

  • Feeling guilty or frustrated about unhealthy eating or drinking habits but unsure how to make lasting changes?

  • Chronic fatigue or feeling stuck in a constant cycle of stress and anxiety?

  • Debilitating back pain or aching joints?

  • Worrying about your health risks— cancer, diabetes, heart disease, or more?

  • Struggling to breathe and move even after simple exercise or daily activities?

  • Caught in an endless loop of diets that never seem to work long-term?

What if you could feel like this instead?

  • Proud, completely confident in your own skin, no longer avoiding mirrors or social situations.

  • In control of your eating and drinking habits, making choices that empower you—not drain or frustrate you.

  • Free from constant fatigue, feeling lighter, energised and motivated

  • Confident about health, knowing you're reducing your risks of illnesses: cancer, diabetes and heart disease.

  • More empowered to exercise, moving with ease and freedom - helping you FEEL GREAT!

  • No longer held back by breathlessness or physical discomfort.

  • Liberated from the pressures of year in year out excessive fad diets and simply feeling ‘like c**p!’

Isn’t it Time You Finally Took Care of the Body You Deserve and Broke the Weight-Loss Rules for Good?

The truth is, we’ve tried diets, exercise plans, quick fixes - even medications, but weight-loss doesn’t last, because we’re not getting to the source of the issue.

These methods often ignore the deeper problems.

  1. It’s not just about the weight or the symptoms, it’s about understanding what’s going on inside your body.

You’re facing chronic inflammation, fatigue, and stress—not because of anything you’ve done wrong, but because of the world we live in:

  • Convenience foods that don’t fuel us properly

  • The constant rush and high-stress environments

  • The pressure to always do more, be more, and never stop

  • Misinformation and Missing Information.

What if you could finally understand what’s going on in your body and debunk all the ‘one size fits all mistruths?’

2. Don’t focus on what you currently are, or how you used to be. Start focusing on who you plan to become!

Instead of continuing to fight against yourself, what if you could feel empowered to make changes that actually work? What if you could finally rewrite the rules that fits flexibly around your life?

This takes a little bit of time and patience - but the rewards are fantastic.

How does it work?

Human Accountability

It’s very easy to start strong with enthusiasm and motivation, but when your work and family life gets hectic or you reach a plateau, it’s just as easy to fall back into old habits. That’s where I come in. With my accountability support, you’ll have someone on your side who genuinely understands, listens, and holds you to the promises you’ve made to yourself.

Together, we’ll break your goals into manageable steps, celebrate your wins (big and small), and tackle obstacles as they arise. You’ll never feel like you’re doing this alone . Instead, you’ll have the tools, strategies, and encouragement to turn healthy choices into lifelong habits—because real, lasting change only happens when you know someone’s right there with you week by week, month by month - as long as it takes. With me, it’s not just about weight loss; it’s about reclaiming your health, confidence, and future.

Filling in the missing Gaps

Weight loss isn’t all about calories - eating less and moving more—it’s about understanding the bigger picture. Many people struggle because they’ve been fed the wrong information or don’t even realise the factors working against them. That’s where I come in.

I’ll help you uncover the hidden truths about weight gain and loss, debunk the myths that hold you back, and teach you the practical secrets that make real, lasting change possible. From understanding how your body truly works to strategies that actually fit your life, we’ll fill in the gaps and fast-track your progress—no gimmicks, just clarity and results.

Long Term Empowerment

This isn’t about quick fixes or short-term results - although you can choose a plan that does start delivering very quick if you need. —it’s about building the skills and confidence to maintain your success for life. With me by your side—not an app or a chatbot - you’ll be supported in making sustainable choices that work for you. I’ll help you set your goals, achieve them, and most importantly, keep the weight off. Whether you stay with me for a few months or longer, you’ll have the guidance and accountability you need to stick to your plan and take control of your long-term health.

Key FAQs

  • Not initially, especially if you’re currently limited by movement, aches and pain. However, exercise will play a key role later in your journey. Building an exercise habit will be vital for maintaining your long-term weight set point (holding your weight down) and supporting your overall health.

  • A stressful lifestyle is often a key factor in weight gain, and it may not be something you can easily change overnight. This isn’t a quick fix—it may take several months of accountability and consistent effort to embed small, achievable changes into your daily routine. Together, we’ll tailor a realistic approach that fits into your busy schedule, allowing you to prioritise your health without sacrificing your work or personal commitments.

    With regular check-ins, flexible strategies, and support every step of the way, I’ll help you stay on track even when life gets busy. Plus, we’ll celebrate every small win to keep you motivated and show that progress is possible, no matter how hectic things get.

  • Yes! Each week, at a pre-arranged time that works for both of us, you’ll have a personal 5-10 minute accountability check-in with me.

    In addition, I’ll provide you with a range of tools and resources to support your learning and help you stay on track throughout your journey.

  • You absolutely can! It’s possible to lose more than a stone in a month, but success depends on your personal resilience, staying accountable, and being open to learning about the factors behind weight loss and gain.

    That said, achieving rapid weight loss doesn’t guarantee you’ll keep it off long-term. Sustainable results require significant habit changes and a lasting shift in lifestyle. I’ll guide you through not just losing weight, but also learning how to manage it effectively—through life’s ups and downs, whether it’s festive holidays, anniversaries, or seasonal challenges.

  • Success in this programme is ultimately dependent on what you're willing to responsibly put into it. While the approach is flexible and tailored to your lifestyle, the more time and effort you commit, the more you'll get out of it.

    Great changes can happen relatively quickly, but the most powerful transformations come when you realise what’s truly going on and you start to embed future habits while building the patience to work through the process. Some clients with more time to dedicate might see results in 3-6 months, while others with incredibly busy lifestyles may benefit from a longer timeframe—possibly a year or more—to truly absorb the changes and discover areas they want to improve.

    It’s important to be patient and realistic, as this process is about long-term success rather than quick fixes. We'll work together to ensure your approach fits your life and helps you sustain lasting change.

  • Book a FREE consultation with me to uncover the potential challenges that may be holding you back. The human body is biologically complex, but together we can identify key areas for you to explore and work on, with tailored guidance to suit your needs.

    If you're ready to make lasting changes, we can also discuss a longer-term approach and explore sustainable alternatives to help you achieve your goals.

The person who focuses on one task and sees it through to completion - even if they work in a somewhat slow or outdated manner - beats the endless optimiser who jumps from tool to tool and always hopes a new piece of technology will help them finish what they start.

2025. It’s 3 years on, after finishing working with Paul, and for the first time in my life, a dramatic change has had long lasting results.

I credit Paul with enabling me to ‘find myself’ again. By about age 57 I’d put on so much weight, I found exercise painful and difficult. And I was eating what I now acknowledge to be a very poor diet. I had a stressful job which I wasn’t managing well and I really didn’t know where to start.
— Tracey (over 33kgs lost - 5 stone)
  • I was trapped in a vicious circle of attempting to walk/run more and work out - but feeling disheartened and depressed (and consequently comfort eating) because I was unable to keep up with others in group sessions, and my physique prevented me from doing the things which I used to really enjoy - like dancing and aerobics. Consequently, I was deriving little pleasure (and a lot of frustration/disappointment) from any activities I attempted.

    Paul encouraged me to do the things I COULD do and also helped me understand the toll stress and anxiety was taking on me – hijacking my attempts to change. In those early days, his role as support Coach was as important as any guidance he gave around regaining fitness. Whilst initially adamant I wasn’t going to change my eating patterns – my one joy in life, he gradually introduced the concept of intolerance and helped me to understand my constant hunger and cravings were sabotaging any chance of losing weight. My body was in an inflamed state, I was ‘addicted’ to sugar/white carbs and I was focused on calorie counting rather than good nutrition. By regaining control over my diet and addressing specific intolerances, weight loss became almost easy - and strength, mobility and stamina training was gradually more doable. So health improvements were exponential.

    I was initially concerned about the cost of personal training – it seemed such an indulgence! However, when I faced up to the fact that getting back to the real me was the most important goal in my life, for the cost of a holiday – or home improvements, why on earth wouldn’t I invest in myself – the most important ‘real estate’ any of us have?

    Firstly working with Paul one-to-one and then eventually joining his outdoor group sessions (which is frankly way better than any sweaty, crowded gym) maintenance is both cost-effective and enjoyable. At the beginning of my journey with Paul I didn’t have the confidence, nor ability to become part of these friendly and very inclusive groups. However, Paul’s focus on adaptation is evident in these sessions too. They’re aimed at all ages and abilities and I never once felt useless even when I was easily the slowest/least able in the group.

    Paul encourages realistic change for life. Not quick fix solutions. He has taught me the importance of holistic health. And the fact that your mindset – and indeed your mind (and of course your brain) is often the most important organ in your body when it comes to good health!

    January 2025 Update

    3 years on and for the first time in my life, a dramatic change has had long lasting results (on several occasions in the past I have lost weight but within a few years I piled it all back on). Because I'm no longer 'dieting' - and because I enjoy the manageable daily activity/exercise I now do (weights and walking mainly), I've found it easy to stay at a fairly constant weight without feeling as though I'm depriving myself.

 
Wintertime is usually a difficult time of year for me. By the end of 2021 my weight had reached 109kgs (over 17 stone). I decided it was time to change. I had seen Paul’s details online (saving them in case I was brave enough to pursue the idea).
— Tim (15kgs lost - over 2.5 stone)
  • So, in early January 2022, I arranged a meet-up with Paul, and together we identified the goals I wanted to achieve, while also discussing my current activities, lifestyle and eating patterns.

    Initially, I started with Paul’s 6-week starters programme. We met twice a week for additional motivation and mindset training, while he introduced me to the benefits of using a rowing machine and TRX suspension training for the purposes of aerobic and resistance/strength exercise. We also worked on mobility to reduce tension while I incorporated my usual walks with friends.

    By Easter, I was ready to learn more about what I was eating, while restoring respect for my body. I was ready to tackle Paul’s ‘body reset’ eating programme. This wasn’t easy to start with – but it kickstarted further weight-loss and helped me improve my eating habits.

    Eight months later I feel more motivated and more positive. I still have occasional ‘down days’ but overall I am happier in myself.

    I have maintained a steady weight-loss (even with holidays in between). To date, I have lost 15kgs of weight (nearly 2.5 stone) and am still happily continuing with sustainable fitness goals.

    I’ve even purchased my own rowing (erg) machine and suspension trainer to assist me along the way.

 
When I first met Paul I was 14 stone - obese, tired all the time and found it hard to exercise because of painful knees. I have previously yo-yo dieted for years where I lost weight and then put it back on plus more. I have lost 3 stone in one year - something I had previously thought impossible.
— Orla (19kgs lost - 3 stone)
  • When I first met Paul I was 14 stone - obese, tired all the time and found it hard to exercise because of painful knees. I am a mother of two girls (one with additional needs) so time to exercise was limited. Paul introduced me to a variety of exercises including TRX - which took the pressure of my joints.

    He also introduced me to a nutrition reset method – where the results were amazing! I have previously yo-yo dieted for years where I lost weight and then put it back on plus more.

    I have lost 3 stone in one year - something I had previously thought impossible (especially with going through the menopause as weight loss becomes harder). My goal was to get my BMI from obese to a healthy weight - which I am still working on.

    Paul encouraged me to start running - something I’ve never done before. This was my life-saver during the Covid-19 pandemic lockdowns as it gave me head space when all the family were working at home. It also meant I could fit in exercise at a time convenient to me. I find I am much happier in myself as I now make time for me and as a result am more patient with the girls and my husband!

    Paul taught me how to set good habits into your everyday life - like when you are going to exercise/ how many times a week and making healthier food / drink choices so when you want to celebrate with friends and family you can.

    Paul always made me feel my goals were achievable and made each training session fun but pushed me when I needed it. If you follow his training regime you will see amazing results. Can’t thank you enough Paul! Description text goes here

 
Last year I worked closely with Paul and lost 2 stone, which was amazing and helped both my fitness levels and also my mental health, having a more positive outlook on my appearance. I have always struggled with weight loss, particularly finding the right plan and process for me and Paul has helped guide me and show me that there are different ways to lose weight and other factors to consider than just calories consumed.
— Emma
  • Over the years and certainly since starting one-to-one sessions not only has my fitness improved but the other areas of health have certainly developed. I am much more aware of the mental health benefits that’s exercise brings me and also the need to have a much improved work/life balance which is something I am working on at the moment.

    During my one to one sessions, Paul introduced me to rowing, something I had never thought to spend much focus on. Since then I have improved my fitness levels and my rowing abilities considerably and this is now one of my favourite forms of exercise and I achieved my goal of a sub 8 minute 2000m row.

    Paul takes the time to get to know your strengths and weaknesses, how much he can push you and what motivates you the most. This means he is able to get a lot more out of each session with you and really help you to achieve goals and milestones.
