The Nourish Method helps you reset your metabolism, balance your hormones, and feel like you again.
In fact, since hitting 40, the weight is creeping up… no matter how “good” you try to be.
You’ve tried it all: blogs, podcasts, freebies, Instagram tips, and well-meaning advice from friends - but it’s all conflicting and confusing.
You know your body has changed, and you suspect hormones are playing a bigger role than anyone’s acknowledging.
Your doctor says your tests are “normal” and tells you to eat less and move more… but you’re already doing that, and it’s just not working.
You’ve started avoiding mirrors. You don’t recognise the woman staring back at you. Getting dressed, going out, even changing in front of others... it all feels uncomfortable now.
And deep down, you’re not just looking for another plan.
You want something sustainable. Real food. Real life.
Something that doesn’t require counting every calorie or buying overpriced “fat loss” products.
👉 If any of this feels familiar, you’re not alone.
And you’re absolutely in the right place.
Why what you've tried so far hasn't worked
If you’ve been told to “just eat less and move more,” it’s no wonder you feel frustrated.
That advice might have worked in your 20s or 30s, but for women over 40, it’s not that simple.
As hormones shift (especially with the decline in oestrogen), your metabolism naturally slows down. Muscle mass decreases, fat storage increases , especially around your midsection, and your body becomes less responsive to the old “calories in, calories out” method.
And here’s the truth most diets don’t want you to know:
When your body is out of balance, a calorie deficit won’t fix it.
In fact, it can make things worse ; slowing your metabolism further, triggering inflammation, and increasing fat storage instead of fat loss..
The Nourish Method is designed exclusively for women over 40.
It’s not about restriction or punishment. It’s about getting your body into a state where fat loss happens naturally, because your metabolism is supported and your hormones are working with you, not against you.
Instead of focusing on calories, we focus on removing the inhibitors that block fat-burning, such as:
🧬 Insulin resistance — when your cells stop listening to insulin’s signals, fat loss slows down
🔥 Nutrient deficiencies — certain nutrients are needed to convert stored fat into usable energy
🦠 Gut & immune dysfunction — inflammation from the gut can stall weight loss and disrupt hormones
🦋 Thyroid function — if it’s only “normal,” not optimal, your metabolism can stay sluggish
😰 Stress & cortisol imbalance — high cortisol disrupts thyroid function and sex hormones
🧹 Poor detoxification & elimination — your liver and gut play a crucial role in hormone clearance
Traditional diets ignore all of this.
In fact, they often make these imbalances worse by depriving your body of the very nutrients and rest it needs to function well.
If you’ve been told to “just try harder,” I want you to know, you’re not the problem. The approach is the problem.
You’ve been handed generic advice, confusing information, and told your labs are “normal”, when in reality, your body is crying out for something deeper.
Most of the women we work with have heard things like:
“It’s just your age.”
“It’s the menopause... maybe you need antidepressants.”
“Your results look fine, nothing’s wrong.”
But just because your GP says your results are “normal,” doesn’t mean everything is normal. Most standard blood tests miss the subtle imbalances and nutrient gaps that impact fat loss, energy, and hormonal health.
Here’s the truth:
Your body isn’t broken , it just needs a different approach. One based on nourishment, rebalancing, and long-term support - not starvation, shortcuts, or shame.
No more second-guessing your symptoms or Googling late at night.
You’ll begin with at-home, comprehensive functional tests that give us an in-depth view of your metabolism, hormones, nutrient status, gut health, and more. These insights show us exactly what’s been keeping you stuck, and what your body needs to start letting go of the weight.
Your nutritionist will walk you through your results in plain English and create a personalised strategy that aligns with your unique biology, so we can support fat loss and optimise your long-term health.
Forget rigid plans or generic protocols.
You’ll receive a tailored action plan based on your test results, medical history, personal preferences, and ongoing progress. This isn’t a one-time plan, it evolves with you, adapting as your body heals and your goals shift.
We keep things manageable by breaking your journey down into simple, actionable steps, so you always know exactly what to do next.
The Nourish Method isn’t just a plan, it’s a proven system built over 12+ years, designed to create lasting change.
You’ll follow a step-by-step structure that helps you rebuild your metabolism from the inside out through nutrition, mindset and lifestyle upgrades.
No cutting out entire food groups. No starving yourself or battling cravings.
Just strategic, supportive shifts that restore balance and help your body feel safe enough to let go of excess weight.
We’ll also guide you with targeted supplement recommendations (where appropriate), based on your lab results, not guesswork, to help accelerate your progress.
This isn’t a DIY programme where you’re left to figure things out.
You’ll be fully supported by a team of experts with over 40 years of combined experience in women’s health, weight loss, nutrition and mindset.
From adjusting your meals to breaking through plateaus, navigating a busy life or moving past moments of self-sabotage , we’re in your corner every step of the way.

First of all- yay! That’s so exciting! Once your payment has been processed, you'll receive a welcome email that will tell you everything you need to know to get started! We'll get your tests ordered once you've submitted your details. The results take up to 3 weeks to come back after you've sent the samples off. While you're waiting for your test results, you'll have some steps to follow to get some key foundations in place so that you're in the perfect position to get stuck into your action plan once those results return. You'll have instant access to these steps, and you'll also be able to book a short 1:1 to ensure you're on the right track while you're waiting for your results!
We work with women all over the UK and North America! The tests we run can be completed at home and everything else is done online, including 1:1 consultations over Zoom. For clients in North America, you may need to visit a local lab to complete one of these tests, but we'll help you organise this!
In CORE, we complete a urine test and blood test. The urine test is easy to complete at home. The blood test is a finger-prick blood test that can also be completed at home, or we can help you to make arrangements for a venous blood draw.
These are comprehensive and validated tests that will help to identify any underlying imbalances or deficiencies that may be contributing to stubborn weight.
We'll assess the thyroid (advanced), vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, gut bacteria and yeasts, digestion and absorption, neurotransmitters, toxic load and liver function, inflammatory markers, fat and carbohydrates metabolism and more!
We'll use this information to create your personalised action plan.
We do not repeat the tests at the end of the programme as standard, simply because we find that most people do not need this and doing so would push up the cost of the programme considerably. We can determine whether the programme is working based on your progress. If you wish to have retests or have other tests completed at any point in the programme, we'd be happy to arrange this for you for an additional fee.
In the VIP programme, we additionally include a hormone test, a DNA test that assess 5 different areas and a food intolerance test, all of which are completed at home.
Tests are not included in the Essentials programme.
We've worked with over 700 women in The Nourish Method and we are yet to have a completely perfect set of results. This is because the tests are very in-depth and we are looking at finer margins that typical tests. If, in the extremely unlikely chance, your results come back completely normal, this is still useful information for us to work with!
If your tests were completed by your NHS doctor, they will not be in-depth enough and we will still need to complete our tests. If you've had any tests completed in the last 6 months or so, we'll certainly factor these into our analysis and recommendations and you'll be able to upload them to our portal so that we can review them.
If you've had private testing done, it's still unlikely you've had the tests completed that we require, however, please email us to let us know what tests you've had completed and we can determine whether further testing would be required. You can email support@louisedigbynutrition.com or use the chat box in the corner of this page.
I'm under 40, would the programme work for me?
Yes! Absolutely! The programme is a good fit for any woman who wants a holistic, whole-body, personalised approach to sustainable fat loss! It's for those who are looking for a complete solution and who are committed to optimising health. It's not for those looking for a quick-fix.
This is the case for many of the women that join The Nourish Method. While you may be eating really nutritious foods, the balance may not be optimal to best support your body. Further to this, food is the foundation but not the only factor. We'll be working on a lot more than just food. This is also why we runs tests. Because, sometimes no amount of 'healthy eating' will address the underlying imbalances that may be causing stubborn weight. We may need to use short term supplements, functional foods and/ or lifestyle adjustments to properly address these imbalances.
Not with this programme! Not only will you eat real food for your meals, you’ll eat plenty of it. Plus you’ll be eating formerly forbidden foods like butter, beef, avocado and eggs (if you like those things).
No. There is no reason why your family can't eat the same stuff as you. It's easy to adapt the meals to suit different family members without having to cook several different things, or adapt the meal you're already used to.
We are not prescriptive; we won't give you a meal plan or tell you to eat X at Y time on Z day. That sort of approach gets boring real quick, and is very difficult to sustain. Instead, we'll guide you on what food to prioritise or minimise, and how to balance your meals based on your needs and schedule. We want to ensure that you are set up with the information and tools you need to make informed food choices, so that after the programme, you're set up for long-term success. We have over 130 recipes you can use for inspiration, and we'll be there to guide you every step of the way!
Nope. It's an individualised programme and we'll guide you to help you get a good balance based on what you can eat. Sometimes when you have food intolerances, this can be due to imbalances in the gut. We'll be investigating gut health as this is a key area when it comes to hormone balance and metabolism. Often food intolerances resolve when you address the underlying cause.
We are not prescriptive; we're not going to tell you to do X workout Y times per week. But we will certainly guide you on the types and amount of exercise that would align with your goals based on your needs and imbalances. For example, a common scenario we see is when someone is doing a lot of very intense exercise or extended cardio in order to achieve the maximum calorie burn, however, when there are certain imbalances present, such as thyroid issues or cortisol imbalance, this approach to exercise could make these imbalances worse, driving weight gain. We'll guide you on how to adjust (or begin) your exercise regime for the best results. And if you're limited on how much exercise you're able to do, that's absolutely fine - we'll adjust our recommendations accordingly!
The recipes are easy. They don’t require you to spend hours in the kitchen working with complicated hard to find foods - who’s got time for that? You'll need about 30 minutes when you first get started in order to find your feet but that doesn't have to be all in one go. Then each week, you'll need about 15-30 minutes to plan and prep.
Yes! This programme was created because women who are peri-menopausal and menopausal, or with other hormonal imbalances, need to nourish and heal their bodies in order to achieve weight loss. Counting calories just doesn't work when your hormones are imbalanced. It has been created with you in mind.
We regularly work with women with multiple health concerns and we are well trained to safely give food, lifestyle and supplement recommends in such circumstances. We always check our recommendations to ensure that they are safe alongside health condition and medications.
Whether you take HRT or not, we can absolutely help you work towards your weight and health goals!
Whether you feel healthy and just want to lose the last 10lbs, or if you're not in the best of health with a long-list of medications, we can absolutely help! Many of the women we've worked with have managed to reduce their medications (with the approval of their doctor), as a result of optimising their health using our guidance.
The main exceptions are as follows:
- If you are pregnant or breast-feeding. It's best to wait until after to get the most out of this programme. If you are planning on conceiving, the programme is a good fit as the steps we'll take will be supportive of fertility health.
- If you have an active eating disorder, you should work with a counsellor and/or a nutritionist who specialises in this area. While we are able to help our clients with their mindset and relationship with food or even a history or disordered eating, someone with an active eating disorder needs a more specialised support.
- If you have been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease, or CKD, you have very specific dietary requirements and need to work with a dietician who specialises in this.
We don't have a set intake date; you can start as soon as you've enrolled! Getting starting is easy and you'll be able to begin getting stuck in right away if you want to! Equally, there's no pressure, and if you need a few days or even week to work through introductory steps, that's fine too!
Absolutely not!! One of the main reasons why The Nourish Method is 6 months long, is to help account for these types of 'interruptions'. In any 6 month period, you will likely have holidays, vacation or work travel, and it's super helpful to have our team of experts on hand to help guide you through this.
Another important thing to remember is that it takes up to 3 weeks for your test results to return once you send off the samples, so if you have a holiday in the first month or so, why not start now and get those tests underway, so that when you return, you're results will be ready (or closer to being ready) and you'll be closer to getting your individual plan!
Yes, the programme is something that is designed to work as a whole and you are committing to the full programme. The payment plans are just that, a payment plan and NOT a subscription. When you choose the payment plan you are committing to making all payments.
After enrolling, there will be a 14 day cooling off period within with you will be entitled to a refund if you decide the programme isn't for you. This will be minus the cost of any tests or services used, as well as minus our cancellation fee of £100, which is charged due to the extensive admin involved in onboarding clients into and off-boarding clients from the programme. No refunds of any kind will be given after this period.
We get it! It's a considerable investment and you want to ensure this is the best next step for you.
If you have specific questions we haven't answered here, you can use the chat box on this page to contact us.
We'll get back to you as soon as we can, within 24 working hours.
