FAQs

If I change my mind when I have signed up will I receive a refund?

There are set up costs required at the start of the programme (blood analysis and personal plan generation). As a result of this, there is no refund available once you have enrolled.

Please note: these timings are approximate, I do not guarantee timings as factors outside my control can influence lead times. Please be assured however that I always do my very best to ensure clients are able to begin the plan as soon as possible.

Do you offer a weight loss guarantee?

No, I do not offer any guarantee of specific results arising from the programme.

The primary focus of the programme is to support the core functions of the body, maximise the vitamin and mineral benefits of food and aid natural detoxification. By cleansing the liver, balancing hormones, improving gut flora and resetting imbalanced metabolic pathways, most clients find reaching their optimum weight happens naturally.

The programme is based entirely on client bio-chemistry and personal data, meaning all clients experience unique results.

You can be assured however, that your satisfaction is my success. I will do everything in my power to ensure you are cared for, you experience the highest quality service, and that you achieve the best results possible.

Can I pay in instalments?

Yes, you can spread the cost of your programme over 3 monthly instalments at no extra cost.

Where & how do I have my blood test?

You can either choose to have your blood taken at your GP surgery/local nurse/other qualified phlebotomist or at The Doctors Laboratory, our designated laboratory in London. Full details of how to do this are provided when you enroll in the programme. There is more detail on this in the last FAQ in this section.

I’ve never used Zoom/video call before - can I have the coaching session/sessions by a normal phone call instead?

Absolutely, you can choose to have your coaching session/sessions by Zoom/video call or by a regular phone call – it’s entirely up to you.

Will it be easy to maintain my weight?

The Lean Rebalance Executive Method Programme is designed to bring lifelong weight maintenance and wellbeing. At the end of the 12 weeks your newly balanced metabolism will help you maintain your natural weight.

Most of the clients I have coached through this programme maintain their weight loss years later, give or take a few pounds.

How much weight can I expect to lose?

The average expected weight loss is between 7-18lbs in the first month, with some clients seeing a loss of up to 18kg (around 3 stone) over the 12 week programme.

The success of the programme lies in its ability to permanently improve your metabolic health by cleansing your liver, balancing hormones, improving gut flora and resetting imbalanced metabolic pathways. By focusing on the improvement of how your body functions at its best, reaching your natural weight occurs alongside optimum health. Many factors affect how much weight can be lost on the programme, including age, metabolism, medication, lifestyle factors and how strictly the programme is followed. While I have incredible confidence in the programme, I feel it’s important to be transparent from the outset. I do not offer any weight-loss guarantees, but you can be assured that this programme has delivered outstanding results in 99% of my clients.

Do I have to exercise?

Prescriptive exercise is not included in the Metabolic Balance® Programme.

For the first 16 days light exercise such as walking, yoga and stretching are allowed. From day 16 onwards you may continue with your regular exercise routine and you are encouraged to exercise, but prescriptive exercise routines are not included in the programme. Should you choose the Premium option, we do address exercise and movement within this programme option.

What kind of food will I be eating?

You will be eating regular, natural everyday food including all major food groups: protein, carbohydrates and fats.

All the food is available at regular supermarkets. There are no shakes, pills, supplements or special equipment required to take part in The Lean Rebalance Executive Method Programme.

Will I be hungry?

The Lean Rebalance Executive Method is so successful because it reduces hunger and cravings and does not rely on willpower for it’s success. Phases 1 and 2 of the plan are strict, and clients occasionally report that they feel a little hungrier than normal during the first week. This is mostly due to the fact that the programme requires you to leave 5 hours between meals with no snacks. As soon as the body adjusts to this way of eating, weight loss accelerates and clients report that they begin to feel happier, more energetic and their food cravings disappear.

I’ve tried so many diets, why is this so different?

Your Metabolic Balance® plan is created just for you, no two plans are the same. Using a simple blood test combined with your personal data, your plan specifically identifies the nutrients you need for your metabolism to function at its best. Your nutrition plan is totally unique and specific to you, and it’s yours for life. This means no more food cravings and a healthy enjoyable way to eat forever.

Can I smoke on the programme?

Yes, you can take part in the programme if you are a smoker.

I have lots of social engagements coming up in the next few weeks/I’m going on holiday — can I start the programme now?

We don’t recommended that you start the programme if you have any social engagements planned for the first 2-3 weeks. The first part of the plan is very structured and it’s better to clear your diary of social engagements involving food and alcohol for approximately the first 20 days of your plan.

I have a very busy lifestyle, can I still do the programme?

The food on the plan is simple, it’s all available from a regular supermarket and doesn’t involve lots of preparation or elaborate meals, but you will need to be organised. Many meals have just 4/6 ingredients, plus it’s super adaptable to fit with family dinners and workday lunches.

Can I do Metabolic Balance® if I’m vegetarian or vegan?

Yes you absolutely can do The Lean Rebalance Executive Method Programme if you are vegetarian.

However, the programme is unfortunately not suitable for vegans due to the limited protein options within a vegan diet.

Do I have to get the special Metabolic Balance® blood tests? Can’t I just ask my doctor?

To do the programme, you must take the specific Metabolic Balance® blood test, it is not possible to just get a regular blood test from your doctor. The blood tests are highly specific and include the specific blood markers required to compile your individual nutrition plan.

Can I do Metabolic Balance® if I’m on HRT?

Yes you can, the programme is designed to balance both male and female hormone function.

Can I do Metabolic Balance® if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding?

No, it is not possible to take part in the programme at this time. We recommend considering The Lean Rebalance Executive Method again when you are no longer pregnant or breastfeeding.

Can you explain in more detail how I have the blood test?

  1. If you choose to have your blood test with your GP or alternative phlebotomist, you will receive a blood test pack by post that contains all you need to have your blood test.
  2. You can choose to have your blood test at either your local GP surgery/a private hospital/with a trained healthcare worker, or at The Doctors Laboratory in London (our designated testing lab).

If you are having your blood test at The Doctors Laboratory in London:
If you are having your blood test at The Doctors Laboratory, you do not have to make an appointment, they offer a walk-in service. Once your blood test is complete, you do not need to do anything else. I will receive the results of your blood test, I then process them and they are sent to Metabolic Balance® in Germany where your individual nutrition plan is prepared.

If you are having your blood test at your local GP surgery/private hospital/trained healthcare worker:
Once you have had your blood test, you will post your blood pack in the pre-addressed envelope included in your blood test pack. The Doctors Laboratory analyses the sample and I receive the results. These results are then combined with your personal health information and the necessary administration is completed. This data is then sent to Metabolic Balance® in Germany where your individual nutrition plan is prepared.
