#84: Losing 26kgs through pro-metabolic eating with Elzette Smit

Uncategorized Jan 28, 2022

I am so proud of Elzette. She’s had a really bumpy road and has been through a lot. It’s really incredible where she is today. It truly shows her persistence and how failing forward pays off.

After years of yo-yo dieting, Elzette originally joined our program back in 2018. Yet, she faced a rough patch in her marriage and had to take a step back. She eventually rejoined, but then struggled with a back injury. With 3 kids at home (who she homeschools), her story is super inspiring. Elzette has overcome a lot and she looks and feels amazing. She’s even lost 4 dress sizes throughout this process.

But I want you to hear for yourself what she has to say about overcoming obstacles and getting to a happier place in her marriage and life. In this episode, we chat about:

➡️Her history with dieting and exercise

➡️The improvements Elzette has seen since starting pro-metabolic eating

➡️How Elzette persisted and overcame her back injury and still lost weight

➡️Accounta...

#83: Manufactured multivitamins vs real food with Emma Sgourakis

Uncategorized Jan 24, 2022

Do you take a multi?

I used to take one every day.

That was until I found pro-metabolic eating and realised that a multivitamin wasn't doing anything food couldn't do AND some of the synthetic nutrients I was consuming may have been causing me more harm than good.

I feel like they are core to mainstream nutrition and are pushed hard as an insurance policy to get extra nutrients into a shitty diet.

When you eat real food you're not consuming single nutrients but rather a range of vitamins, minerals, enzymes and cofactors that work synergistically to allow for optimal use by the body.

In this episode I catch up with Nutritionist Emma Sgourakis to talk about why getting nutrients from whole food is a much better option than taking a daily multivitamin.

We cover:

👉 Two true superfoods that we like to call "nature's multivitamins" ways you can prepare them and other options if you just can't get them or don't like the taste

👉 Some of the dangers in t...

#82: The ups and downs of healing with Kori and Fallon

Uncategorized Jan 21, 2022

One of the things I love about Kori and Fallon is how authentic and open they both are. I had them on the podcast last year and got such great feedback I thought I'd get them on again.

Kori had a baby recently named Story, and Fallon has been busy working on her recipe book which has now been released and is called the Batch Cookbook. I have it and can confirm the recipes are amazing, highly recommend purchasing.

I think a lot of coaches feel they can't share certain challenges or failures they experience on their journey because they feel like the should have it all together AND I think a lot of women put so much pressure on themselves to be perfect or to have achieved certain goals in certain time frames that they lose sight of the bigger picture.

In this episode Kori and Fallon open up about the struggles and challenges they've had on their healing journeys and how it hasn't been linear.

We discuss:

➡️How healing isn’t just about food but your lifestyle as ...

#80: EFT tapping with Greta Zukoff

Uncategorized Jan 10, 2022

A lot of women come into our program and get results, then there are other women that really struggle. Even though they have the knowledge and support they still struggle to be consistent. They self-sabotage and have a hard time overcoming their own internal stories and dialogue.

If you listened to the podcast I did updating everyone on my TTC journey I talked about how EFT really helped me with my anxiety and the feelings that were coming up for me. Greta is an EFT tapping practitioner and a client in one of our programs. One day she messaged me and said "Kitty now you can tell me to fuck off 🤣 but I really think EFT tapping could help you".

I think a lot of women 'stuff' feelings or have trauma in their past that they haven't worked through or processed which can affect their ability to be consistent and make lasting change.

It really helped me so I thought I'd get Greta on the podcast to talk more about EFT In this episode, we discuss:

#79: The scary truth about hormonal contraception with Amanda Montalvo

Uncategorized Jan 04, 2022

I get so many questions from women doing our program and challenges about taking hormonal birth control, including the pill, IUD, depo shot, and more.

I actually took the pill for many years. I didn’t understand why it was so important to ovulate and have a period. The doctor never warned me, and I didn’t do any research on it back then. I just thought it was convenient to not have a period, and at the time, I didn’t want to fall pregnant.

So I thought I'd get Amanda on the podcast to talk about how birth control interferes with your hormones and why having a healthy ovulatory cycle is so important for all women even if you don't want to fall pregnant.

In this episode, we discuss:

➡️How the menstrual cycle works

➡️Why ovulation (and progesterone) is so important

➡️How birth control suppresses ovulation

➡️How the menstrual cycle offers insights into your overall health

➡️What happens when you stop taking the pill

➡️How a woman becomes estrog...

#78: From Paleo & 1200 calories to pro-metabolic eating with Trish Del Girolamo

Uncategorized Dec 19, 2021

Are you a woman who's used to living off low calorie and low carb diets to control your weight?

Have you thought about dipping your toes in pro-metabolic eating but feel scared to increase your calories and start eating carbs and dairy again?

Are you sick of punishing yourself with grueling cardio and training sessions 6-7 days per week to maintain your weight?

If this is you then I’m sure you can relate to Trish's story.

Trish is 52, married with one daughter and lives in Melbourne. She’s done almost everything from 500-calorie and 1200-calorie diets and Jenny Craig to avoiding carbs altogether and going full Paleo for two years in an effort to improve her health.

When she first started pro-metabolic eating she struggled to introduce carbs and dairy and was terrified of gaining weight if she increased her calories.

In this podcast she shares her journey including how she successfully introduced carbs and dairy back into her diet, how she trains, the card...

#77: There's more to healing than a pro-metabolic diet with Kate Deering

Uncategorized Dec 17, 2021

In this podcast, Kate and I get deep and personal. We share aspects of our stories and how emotional stress and our thoughts have affected health.

A lot of women think if they get their training and nutrition down pat, everything will be great.....and yes it's a great start and definitely foundational when it comes to healing but there is more to health than just the physical.

So, if you’re doing everything right but things aren’t falling into place like you thought, give this episode a listen.

You aren’t alone. We all struggle, we experience shame, and beat ourselves up from time to time.

The truth is there is ALWAYS going to be stress in your life, and finding ways to build our resilience and navigate through it is so important for obtaining health, happiness, and balance.

Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield. Each month I choo...

#76: Update to falling pregnancy at 40 with Kitty Blomfield

Uncategorized Dec 12, 2021

This is the first solo podcast I’ve ever done!

I wanted to do this to provide a quick update on my falling pregnant at 40 journey. I’ve had so many people ask me how it’s going and to share more about it so I thought I’d hop on and update everyone.

The 18 months have been one of self-discovery, to say the least.

When I set my sights on something, I’m all in, and trying to fall pregnant was no different....which in this case was to my detriment.

This is one of the most raw and vulnerable podcasts I've ever recorded.

I share everything from my anxiety, to sleepless nights, to feeling like a complete failure.

Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield. Each month I choose someone who has shared and they get a tub of Saturée Premium Collagen valued at $79.

#75: Constipation is a metabolic issue with Emma Sgourakis

Uncategorized Dec 07, 2021

It’s probably best if you aren’t eating for this one. So, put your fork down and get ready to find out how you can improve the all-too-common problem of constipation and start pooing regularly.

Prior to meeting Emma, I actually wouldn’t go to the bathroom for 2-3 days at a time. I just thought this was normal (it’s not), and I see so many women having the same issue. But really, there’s nothing more satisfying than a good poo! You just feel lighter and less weighed down. There are also a heap of reasons why it’s important to go regularly.

In this episode, we talk about:

➡️ How constipation is linked to low metabolic function

➡️Why it’s important to have one or more bowel movements per day

➡️What happens when you don’t go

➡️Why common recommendations to improve constipation don’t actually fix the root cause

➡️Tips for improving digestion and eliminating constipation

➡️What foods you should reduce

➡️The importance of movement and sun for regu...
