Many people can’t lose weight or find relief from hormonal symptoms despite trying everything.

Our online programs use Tirzepatide and Semaglutide, or Bioidentical Hormones to help people lose weight or get relief from hormonal symptoms quickly.

If you’ve avoided strength training because you’re worried about getting “bulky,” here’s the truth: women simply don’t have the testosterone for that. 💚

Strength training doesn’t make women big — it helps you build just enough muscle to support a healthier metabolism. With more lean muscle working for you throughout the day, losing weight (and keeping it off) becomes easier.

The challenge is that hormone levels naturally decline in the late 30s and 40s, especially testosterone. And without enough of it, building even a small amount of muscle can feel frustratingly hard.

Understanding these hormonal changes can make strength training more effective and help you create the toned, strong shape you’re working toward.

If you want to know more about your hormones so you can create an attainable, long-term plan for weight loss, check out our Complete Hormone & Metabolic Assessment: https://newleafonline.com/new-leaf-comprehensive-medical-assessment/

If you’ve ever lost weight quickly and watched it come right back, you’re not imagining it — and you’re not doing anything wrong.

When weight drops fast, your leptin levels drop fast too. Leptin is the hormone your fat tissue produces to tell your brain you have enough energy stored. So when leptin suddenly falls, your brain doesn’t interpret that as success. It interprets it as a possible famine.

To protect you, it reacts by:
• increasing hunger
• slowing metabolism
• lowering your energy
• pushing your weight back up

This is one of the main reasons many women experience yo-yo dieting — losing weight, gaining it back, and sometimes gaining even more.

None of this is a lack of willpower or discipline.
It’s a built-in biological response.

Understanding leptin helps explain why weight loss has felt like such a battle — and why giving yourself grace is such an important part of the process.

Karie loves reminding women of something they often forget: you’re making more progress than you think. 💚

When a patient feels discouraged, she brings their focus back to how far they’ve come — not how far they have left to go. She knows weight loss looks different for every woman, and comparing your journey to someone else’s only makes it harder to see your own success.

Karie’s steady encouragement helps patients recognize their growth, especially on the days it’s easiest to doubt it.

Somewhere between the tasks you’ve handled and the ones still waiting for you…
have you taken a moment to drink some water today?

It’s surprisingly easy to move through the day on autopilot and forget the simplest things that help us feel grounded.
So consider this your soft reminder to pause, stretch your shoulders, and take a few sips.

Your body will thank you.
Your mind will steady.
And you’ll feel a little more supported as you move through the rest of your day.

Go drink some water!

If losing weight feels harder than it used to — especially when you’re trying to build strength — you’re not imagining it. And it’s not because you’re doing anything wrong.

Starting around age 30, women naturally lose 3–5% of their muscle mass each decade, and that loss speeds up in perimenopause and menopause. Less muscle means a slower metabolism, which makes weight loss feel harder and weight regain happen faster.

On top of that, shifts in estrogen, testosterone, thyroid function, and insulin all affect how your body burns fat, holds onto weight, responds to exercise, and recovers. These changes can make it feel like your usual efforts “don’t work anymore.”

None of this means you’re stuck — it simply means your body is changing.

The Complete Hormone & Metabolic Assessment helps uncover what’s actually happening beneath the surface so you can understand why weight loss suddenly feels harder, why your strength has changed, and what your body needs to move forward.

If your weight loss has stalled — or feels harder than it should — you deserve real answers, not more pressure.

If strength training feels harder than it used to — or if you’re doing all the right things but not seeing the progress you expected — your muscle and hormones may be playing a bigger role than you realize.

Women naturally lose muscle as they move through their 30s, 40s, and 50s, and those changes can slow metabolism and make weight loss more challenging. Pair that with shifting hormone levels, and it becomes even harder to build or maintain the muscle that supports long-term results.

The Complete Hormone & Metabolic Assessment helps you understand what’s happening beneath the surface so you’re not guessing. When you know what your body needs, strength training becomes more effective — and your weight loss journey becomes much easier to sustain.

There’s a hormone called leptin that plays a major role in why weight loss feels so hard — especially when you start making progress.

Leptin is produced by your fat tissue and tells your brain how much energy you have stored. When leptin levels are steady, hunger feels manageable and your metabolism runs the way it should.

But when you begin losing weight — particularly if it happens quickly — leptin drops. And your brain doesn’t interpret that as success. It interprets it as danger. To protect you, it reacts by:

• increasing hunger
• slowing your metabolism
• lowering your energy
• pushing your weight back up to where it thinks you’re “safe”

This is one of the biggest reasons women experience the “lose 10 pounds, gain 12 back” cycle. It’s not a lack of discipline. It’s a biological response driven by leptin.

Understanding how leptin works can help explain why weight loss has felt so frustrating in the past — and why sustainable, long-term strategies matter far more than quick fixes.

The second Friday of January is known as “Quitters Day” — the point when most New Year’s resolutions start to fade. But if you’re feeling your motivation slip, you’re not alone, and you’re not doing anything wrong.

Most weight loss efforts stall right now because they rely on short bursts of effort — strict diets, challenges, detoxes, or rules you’re meant to “get through.” Those approaches can create quick results, but they don’t build the long-term habits or identity shifts that make results last.

And for many women, there’s another layer: your hormones and metabolism may already be making consistency harder than it should be. When your energy drops, cravings spike, sleep gets disrupted, or progress slows for reasons you can’t see, it becomes almost impossible to hold onto a short-term plan.

That’s why understanding what’s happening inside your body matters.
The Complete Hormone & Metabolic Assessment helps reveal the patterns, imbalances, and barriers that make it so difficult to stay on track.

If Quitters Day feels familiar, give yourself grace.
You don’t need more willpower. You need an approach — and a foundation — that can actually last.

If you’ve ever lost weight on a program only to gain it right back, you’re not alone — and there’s a real reason it keeps happening.

Most weight loss programs are built on rules: points, detoxes, strict meal plans, or six-week challenges. And while those rules can create quick results, they don’t teach you long-term habits or help you build the identity you need to maintain the weight once the program is over.

So as soon as the rules end, there’s nothing to fall back on.
And the weight returns — not because you failed, but because the program did.

Inside Thrive, we focus on sustainable habits and identity-based change, not temporary rules. It’s the difference between short-term success and results that last. Learn more: https://newleafonline.com/thrive/

If you’ve been working hard to lose weight but feel like your metabolism isn’t responding the way it used to, you’re not imagining it. Muscle plays a bigger role in weight loss than most women are ever told — and when it declines, everything starts to feel harder.

Strength-focused movement helps protect your muscle and keep your metabolism working for you, not against you. Even small, consistent efforts can make a real difference.

But if building or maintaining muscle has started to feel more difficult than it should, it could be a sign that your hormones or metabolism have shifted. That’s where the Complete Hormone & Metabolic Assessment can give you real answers. It helps you understand what’s changing in your body and what you need to make your hard work actually pay off.

You’re not stuck — you just deserve a plan that matches what your body needs now. Get real answers: https://newleafonline.com/new-leaf-comprehensive-medical-assessment

If weight loss feels harder than it used to, your muscle may be a big part of the reason — and it’s not your fault.

Women lose 3–5% of their muscle mass every decade after 30, and even faster in perimenopause and postmenopause. Less muscle means less strength, a slower metabolism, and far fewer calories burned throughout the day — which makes losing weight (and keeping it off) much harder.

Strength training helps, but hormones matter too. Drops in estrogen and testosterone make it harder to maintain muscle, which is why many women notice weight changes long before they understand the cause.

The Complete Hormone & Metabolic Assessment helps you see what’s really happening with your hormones and metabolism so you can finally understand why things feel different — and what your body needs to move forward with confidence.

Have you ever lost weight, only to feel hungrier, more tired, and pulled right back to your old weight? There’s a biological reason for that.

Leptin is the hormone that tells your brain you have enough energy stored. When you lose weight and leptin drops, your brain doesn’t see success — it sees a threat. It responds by increasing hunger, slowing metabolism, and trying to get you back to your previous weight.

GLP-1 medications don’t change leptin, but they override that hunger response. This gives your brain enough time — usually 12 to 24 months — to accept a healthier weight as the new normal.

Once that happens, maintaining your results becomes much easier, even if you don’t use medication forever.
