Common Weight Loss Mistakes (and How to Avoid Them) with Petronella Ravenshear, Nutritional Therapist & Author

How’s the January diet going? By this time of the month, things can often start to unravel, so I’m offering a little bonus episode to help you get things back on track. This time last year, I chatted to the brilliant Petronella Ravenshear about metabolism, menopause and sustainable weight loss. Petronella is a nutritionist and author of the excellent Human Being Diet, which is an incredibly effective approach to managing your weight, while eating good food and - dare I say it? - actually enjoying the process! If you haven’t listened to that episode, I’d highly recommend that you check it out – you can find it in Season 6, Episode 11. But weight loss is such a big topic that I couldn’t resist recording this additional conversation with Petronella, to give anyone who’s struggling this January some extra support tools. In this episode, we explore: The 3 most common mistakes women make when trying to lose weight Petronella’s 3 top tips for achieving sustainable weight loss Petronella’s advice is practical, insightful, and truly inspiring - I could chat with her all day! I hope this episode gives you the confidence to take the first steps toward lasting, positive change.
