Weight Loss Coaching in Melbourne for Women Over 40

    I'm Katie Larking, a Health and Nutrition Coach offering personalised weight loss coaching in Melbourne and online across Australia and New Zealand for women over 40.

    If your body has started to feel like it's working against you, you don't need another generic diet. You need an approach that's built around you, your life and what you can actually sustain.

    Why weight loss feels harder after 40

    If you've noticed that losing weight feels harder than it used to, you're not imagining it. For many women, the years around 40 and the transition through menopause can bring changes that make weight management feel like a whole new challenge.

    Your muscle mass can naturally change over time, which can influence how your body uses energy. Sleep can become more disrupted, stress can build up, and the habits that once kept you feeling steady may not fit your life the way they used to.

    None of this means you've failed or that you need more willpower. It often means the approach that worked in your 20s or 30s simply wasn't designed for where you are now.

    This is where a weight loss coach Melbourne women can trust can help. Rather than handing you another generic plan, we look at what's actually going on for you and work from there.

    How my weight loss coaching works

    Your coaching starts with understanding you. Rather than handing you a standard meal plan, we focus on your goals, your current habits and what you'd realistically like to change.

    1

    Understand

    We look at where you are now, what you are experiencing and what you want to change, from eating patterns and energy to sleep, stress and activity.

    2

    Personalise

    We identify practical nutrition and lifestyle strategies that are relevant to your individual needs and your weight and fat loss goals.

    3

    Implement

    You receive guidance and support to help you put those changes into practice in a way that fits your real life.

    4

    Adjust

    As you learn what works for you, your approach can evolve. Sustainable change is rarely a straight line.

    There is no perfect diet. There is only an approach that is realistic, sustainable and right for you.

    What we can work on together

    My coaching is built around your individual goals. Common areas we work on together include:

    • Weight and fat loss
    • Menopause nutrition
    • Energy and reducing fatigue
    • Fibre and gut health
    • Protein and strength support
    • Habits and emotional eating patterns
    • Meal planning guidance

    If fibre and gut health are part of your focus, my free Fibre Counter App can help you see how much fibre you're getting each day.

    I've been where you are

    My interest in nutrition started early. At 14, I decided I wanted to change my relationship with food and my health. I taught myself about nutrition, followed a structured eating and exercise plan and overcame obesity.

    I hold a Bachelor of Applied Science in Health Promotion and I'm a Certified Health and Nutrition Coach. I've also placed 2nd and 3rd Runner Up in the ANB Over 40s competition, which gave me lived experience in fat loss, muscle development and changing body composition.

    I know how much consistency and patience change can take, and I know it's about far more than what happens in the gym. You can read more on the Meet Katie page.
