WORDS OF GRATITUDE AND HOPE...
#TRUTHBOMB
REAL WEIGHT LOSS IS MORE THAN JUST EATING LESS AND MOVING MORE.
Do you ever feel like all your weight struggles would disappear if you just had the willpower and motivation to EAT LESS and MOVE MORE?
THE REALITY IS...
that this is NOT going to result in long term weight loss and can even result in a constant cycle of yo-yo dieting.
YOU NEED TO STOP.
🫣You’ve tried so many diets you lost count.
🫣You’ve signed up to the gym challenges.
🫣You’ve cut out chocolate, sugar and joy from your week.
🫣You’ve weighed every mouthful of food and tracked your calories until your brain hurt.
🫣You’ve stopped drinking alcohol for a month and missed out on social events.
🫣You’ve tried the supplements and teas that promise to reboot your metabolism,
🫣You’ve used meal replacement shakes until your soul lost the will to live.
The problem with all of these approaches is that they focus on getting immediate success and FAIL TO ADDRESS THE UNDERLYING REASONS why you are gaining weight and struggling to maintain any meaningful weight loss long term.
WHY IT ISN'T WORKING...
😕 You start feeling like you need to live a life so tightly controlled or calculated. It is exhausting.
😕 There is no room for joy and celebration.
😕 You are pushing so hard and just can’t maintain it while also living life.
😕 You are relying on willpower to be ‘good’ and the minute you slip up you feel like you have failed and it all comes crumbling down.
😕 You are overwhelmed by achieving so much in your day, that you just need a moment to drop the ball and not be ‘perfect’…so you give up and tell yourself you will start again another day.
It can be different.
Let Melissa show you that you can lose weight, feel more energised, less bloated, calmer and lighter without the hustle, guilt, pressure, and push.
Your
FOREVER
weight loss solution is waiting for you.
(HEADS UP: This will be the LAST WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM you will ever need to do!)

You need to gather the tools and strategies to navigate life in a way that supports your health for good - no quick fixes, no short cuts or temporary band-aids.
Trust that when you focus on your health, the fat loss will follow.

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Q: I have a 'full' life with lots on my plate already - is this going to require a lot of my time?
I hear you sister! We are all time poor and the last thing you need is to feel like you have over-committed and just don't have the time to dedicate to the program.
The way LightenUP is set up means that there are no expectations - you get to take what you want/need and make the call if it ever feels too much. You are in the drivers seat.
The whole point of this program is to find realistic and sustainable changes to your habits and choices to better support your health and facilitate results.
By understanding what your body needs, taking away the overwhelm, and vanishing the confusion - you will actually have more time and energy to dedicate to living your life. Melissa will help you set up achievable routines that actually make life easier, while also getting you results.
Q: Can I easily integrate this into family life? I really don't want to be cooking separate meals.
No one wants to be standing in the kitchen for hours preparing multiple meals. Especially Melissa. She is a mum to three humans, and is a big believer in making things simple and flexible - so everyone's needs are met.
Melissa has a selection of strategies and proven approaches that mean your health can be prioritised in a way that doesn't result in more work.
No more eating the food scraps from your kids' plate or just settling for toast at dinner because you have no more energy for yourself by the end of the day. By you making yourself a priority, you will actually be doing your whole family a favour. Often there is a beautiful shift that happens in families when the mum puts their own needs first and role models healthier choices.
Q: Will you be able to help me with test results and more investigations if I need them?
The special thing about LightenUP is the unique combination of group and 1:1 personalised support.
Inside your private appointments you will have the chance to dive into any required testing or further investigations.
Nothing is pre-set. The journey you take inside LightenUP is your own. No two women will walk away with the same experience or formula for success.
Everything is personalised and unique to you. Whatever support or testing you need it is given - nothing is off the table.
Melissa is available for a wide variety of support - from supplement prescription, decoding test results, functional testing recommendations, diet analysis, movement programming, mindset work, emotional embodiment and shadow work - nothing is off the table.
Q: I've tried other weight loss programs in the past.
How is this one different?
LightenUP is the program women choose to do when they have done the rest and are ready to really face the magic that comes from leaning into the uncomfortable. It is kinda like the matrix - once you have chosen the blue pill there is no turning back. Your life and the way you approach your health (and weight loss) will be changed forever - in the most beautiful freeing way. Life will feel lighter. You will discover part of yourself that you forgot existed and felt things you forgot you could feel.
This is possible due to the unique skill set and combination of knowledge that Melissa holds. She is a wealth of knowledge about the human body, but also a highly skilled human who has multiple tools in her tool kit - from nutritional science, botanical medicine, exercise physiology, mindset coaching and emotional intelligence. She has what you need to create lasting change.
Q: When are the group workshops and 1:1 appointments?
Your 1:1 appointments are scheduled to suit you in week 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 of the LightenUP program. We will book these before the program even starts so you have the times locked in. I recommend finding the same time every fortnight so that you get in a nice routine. If you ever need to reschedule one of your 1:1s we can do that - nothing is set in stone.
The fortnightly group workshops are held on Tuesday nights @ 5pm in week 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9. Each one is recorded and uploaded to the 'LightenUP Community Page' for viewing if you are unable to attend.
Q: What happens after LightenUP is over?
You will never be tossed out on your own or left abandoned. You will be invited to join the 'LightenUP Legacy Group' where Melissa provides ongoing support and motivation to keep living your best life.
This group is formed by previous members of LigthenUP and proving to be a magical communtiy of inspirational and courageous women who continue to choose themselves.
PLEASE NOTE: You also receive lifetime access to all of the LightenUP content, so you can revisit it whenever you want to. It is yours to keep forever.
DON'T THINK ABOUT IT FOR TOO LONG.
PLACES ARE LIMITED.
SO THAT MELISSA CAN GIVE YOU HER 100% DEDICATION TO EVERY WOMEN WHO JOINS.
