But you’re left feeling angry, frustrated or ready to throw in the towel (because nothing seems to work) – I’m here for you.
I’m Dr Clare Grace, and I’ve supported thousands of women just like you. Weight gain with perimenopause and menopause is so common. You’re not in this alone.
I understand how it feels when menopause hits, and your body refuses to work like it used to. I’ve been there. And from my 30 years’ experience as a Dietitian specialising in weight management, with a PhD in Nutrition, I’ve seen everything our hormones throw at us.
Like so many of the women I work with, you might be feeling ambushed by the onslaught of your menopause symptoms. One day you were active and healthy, and felt in control of your life (and your wardrobe).
The truth is that there’s no ‘one size fits all’ solution to lose menopause weight or manage menopause symptoms – because everyone is different.
Food and nutrition are so important.
But there are other vital parts – like what really lies behind your weight gain, what your (possibly unconscious) eating habits are, and the psychology behind your eating – that you might be missing.
That’s why I believe that personalised one-to-one support, together with science-backed strategies and advice, are crucial to your weight management journey.
And they’re all part of how I help you to lose menopause weight or perimenopause weight through my 12-week RENEW package (launching soon!) …
So that you can reclaim your health, energy and confidence – and feel like ‘you’ again!
If you’re ready to stop that weight gain with perimenopause or menopause, you’re in the right place!
Keep reading if you’re curious to discover the 5 powerful elements in the RENEW programme. (Launching in early 2025!). Everything here is backed by science and proven to work, by the way. That’s what sets this programme apart from so much of the online fluff!
And because I know life is busy…
The learning content inside each of these modules is broken down into short, friendly video segments (delivered by me, as an HCPC Registered Dietitian) with printable notes and resources. You’ll access these through a private portal, and you can enjoy exploring and implementing the impactful info between our one-to-one sessions. Then you can use our one-to-one sessions to ask questions, tailor what you’ve learned to your specific needs, strengthen motivation and build support (to keep you happily stepping forward!)
Have you been told by your doctor that you have other health conditions alongside your menopause – like pre-diabetes, fatty liver, raised blood pressure or cholesterol?
The RENEW programme has been designed to help you too.
“Thank you so much for helping me understand what was going on in my body and what to do to change things. Life looks and feels very different now and even my sleep is improving”
“My liver function tests and blood sugars are now normal which they haven’t been for about 5 years. Yippee! So great”
“I’d tried everything to lose weight including intermittent fasting, but nothing worked, and I was so fed up I’d stopped going out with friends. No one had ever gone through why I was eating like I was but now I know what’s standing in my way. There were some real ‘aha’ moments, things have started to fall into place and I’m losing weight!”
There is so much nutritional misinformation out there about how to lose menopause weight or perimenopause weight – and so much of it involves passing fads and fluff that isn’t backed by science! And of course, everyone is different. We all carry our unique set of beliefs, eating habits and health situations. So what works for one person won’t necessarily work for another.
As a fully-qualified and HCPC Registered Dietitian specialising in menopause and weight management, I take time to understand exactly where you are, so that we can create a nutrition and weight loss path that works for you. As much as food and nutrition is important, I also help you to look at the. bigger picture and understand the biology and psychology of your eating habits. We look at other elements of your lifestyle too, and how they impact you – like your sleep, activity and stress. That way, any changes you make will fit in with your life as a whole and will be sustainable. And I’m there to coach, guide and support you, every step of the way.
Absolutely! Many of my clients come to me with various health conditions, as well as their. perimenopause or menopause symptoms. As a Registered Dietitian, I can advise you on helpful food and nutrition so you can navigate your situation and improve your health numbers. And yes – to feel good again! I have several degrees in nutrition and health, and a PhD in Nutrition – so you’re in safe hands.
Making lasting change is crucial and often links to our mindset and the beliefs we have about food and eating that we’ve collected along the way. Fad diets and quick fixes are rarely the way forward, which is why, at the start of the RENEW programme, we focus on understanding and developing a helpful mindset and adjusting unhelpful beliefs. Working together, we tailor these changes to you so you can manage your weight in a way that’s sustainable. That part is so important to me – and my clients are proof that if you keep practising with what you’ve learned, you will continue to see the benefits to your health and weight. I focus on sharing science-backed strategies that are easy for you to implement and follow, and that fit in with your busy lifestyle – so that you can keep going with them! No harsh diets or horrendous new habits. Just plans personalised to you with lots of meal ideas and recipes that are easy to follow and that you will love. I want you to enjoy and embrace your ‘Second Spring!’
I completely understand that weight gain with perimenopause or menopause (as well as all the other symptoms) can drain your energy, mess with your willpower and leave you feeling frazzled. Giving your body what it truly needs at this time, including nourishing foods, can really help you to feel more energised – and with less of those dreaded symptoms. We’ll also look at other areas, like sleep and exercise, so that you start to reclaim your health as a whole. And of course, you’ll have me to coach and encourage you, and to cheer you on. We’ll have regular one to one video calls, plus support on WhatsApp when you need it. We’re in this together.
Even though everything I share is backed by science (and proven to work) I keep it simple for you. The learning modules will give you what you need to know to make powerful, sustainable changes to your life – without the info dump or overwhelm.
I know that life is busy, so I’ve done the research and hard work for you. You just need to sit back and watch the videos, browse the handouts and put the straightforward strategies into practice. (You’re going to love them!). I’ve made it as easy as I can for you to lose menopause weight or perimenopause weight – sustainably.
Struggling to find time for yourself is such a common challenge and it can hold us back and stop us getting started. This is something we work on at the start of the programme. We’ll see how you can best schedule the short bursts of time needed. I promise it will be worth it! I’ve made the video content bite-sized and easy to follow, and you can even watch or listen to it on the go. With the printable handouts, you won’t even need to take notes. Our one-to-one sessions can take account of time limitations, and we can try to fit them around family life. And the increased energy you’ll begin to have as we work together will soon make this feel like a breeze.
Together, we’ll find strategies and create a bespoke way forward that works for you – no matter how your current life looks. It’s likely that weight gain with perimenopause or menopause is just one of the things you’re dealing with. Like many of my clients, you may be juggling children, caring for parents and working a professional job too. And that’s OK! I’m passionate about finding solutions that work and that you can stick to (even if everything you’ve tried before hasn’t been a good fit).
Absolutely. We can work with whatever decision you have made about HRT and tailor your food and nutrition to fit. Whether or not HRT feels right for you, I’m here to help – without judgement.
Yes! I have a BSc, a Post Graduate Diploma in Nutrition and Dietetics, an MSc in Health Sciences and a PhD in Nutrition (which means I also hold the title of Doctor). As an HCPC Registered Dietitian, I’m also regulated by law and governed by
and ethical code. (You’re in safe hands!) I’m also a mindful eating practitioner, if you need support in that area. Beyond the credentials, I bring empathy, understanding and a nonjudgemental approach to our time together.
I’ve created the 12-week RENEW package as this will provide you with the time and space you need to explore and adjust eating habits. There’s rarely a ‘quick fix’ when it comes to managing menopause weight – and I’m dedicated to helping you to make changes that work for you personally – and that last. That being said, I know that everyone has different needs. If you feel you would benefit from a different approach, please contact me or book in for a chat and we can discuss your thoughts.
Once you start to see your health and weight loss results, you’ll want to keep going! But if you change your mind (for any reason) within 14 days of your purchase – you will be entitled to a full refund with no questions asked – in accordance with UK law. Just send me an email to let me know and I can arrange that for you.
This is an investment in you and your future health, confidence and wellbeing– and you’re absolutely worth it! I believe that every woman deserves advice and support from a qualified expert, when they need it. If you’ve been struggling with your menopause weight and nothing has been working for you, I’m so glad that you’ve found me. Let’s talk about how I can support you to nip your weight gain in the bud and make sustainable weight loss change.
