Merit Weight Loss

12/05/2025

The holidays aren’t the problem.
The all-or-nothing mindset is.

People think they’re failing this time of year because they tell themselves:
“I blew it… I’ll start over in January.”

Here’s the truth:
Consistency beats perfection every time.

If you only focus on THESE 3 things, you’ll keep moving forward:

1️⃣ Eat protein first
2️⃣ Add fiber every chance you get
3️⃣ Drink water with every meal/snack

That’s it.
Not perfect.
Not strict.
Not overwhelming.

This is how our clients stay on track AND enjoy their lives.
Simple. Realistic. Sustainable.

Merit-style. 💚

🌟 WE WON! 🌟

We are honored (and honestly a little emotional!) to announce that Merit Weight Loss & Wellness has been awarded the

“Healthcare/Nonprofit Merit Award – Kansas City Region”
for the 2025 To The Stars Kansas Business Awards! 💚✨

This recognition means the world to us because it celebrates something we care deeply about:
compassionate, evidence-based care that helps people feel like themselves again.

When we opened our Leawood location, our dream was simple — to create a space where people felt supported, understood, and never judged. A place where real science, real coaching, and real connection come together to transform lives.

To now be recognized at the state level… we’re speechless, grateful, and so proud of our team and our incredible clients who trust us with their health journey every day.

To our community:
Thank you for cheering, referring, celebrating, and growing with us.
We love you more than you know. 💚

To our team:
You are the heart of Merit. Your passion, empathy, and commitment create the experience that makes this award possible.

Here’s to 2026— more results, more celebrations, more lives changed, and more people feeling AMAZING again.

Results worth celebrating.
— Stephanie, Veronica & the entire Merit team 💚✨

We could shout this from the rooftops…

Our clients are showing up for themselves — and it shows. 💚

These before-and-afters aren’t about perfection.

They’re about confidence coming back… clothes fitting again… energy returning…
and women finally feeling like themselves again.

We’re endlessly proud of the hard work, consistency, and courage we see every single day at Merit.

To everyone on this journey — whether you’re down 5 pounds, 50, or simply feeling better than last month — we’re cheering for you.

Always. 💚✨

If you’ve always felt like you have a slow metabolism… you’re probably right. 💚

And no, that doesn’t mean you’ve been doing anything wrong. It means your body has been adapting to stress, hormones, aging, dieting, and life — the part no one ever teaches women to pay attention to.

We break it all down in this week’s blog: why your metabolism feels slower, why it’s not your fault, and how we actually measure what’s going on underneath the surface.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, this might be the clarity you’ve been looking for.

✨ New client consultations
✨ Weight loss follow-ups
✨ Hormone visits
✨ Medication adjustments
✨ Real-life coaching through The MERIT Method

We’ll be honest…

When we first started, we didn’t fully connect the dots between hormones and weight loss either. 🤷‍♀️
We were so focused on helping women lose weight… we didn’t realize how much hormones were behind the scenes influencing energy, cravings, mood, sleep, libido, and progress.
But once we saw the connection?
We can’t unsee it.
And we won’t ever go back.

Now at Merit, our whole focus is helping women feel amazing — inside and out — with ONE membership that covers weight loss, hormones, metabolism, energy, focus, libido, and confidence.

All tailored to YOU.
All in one place.
All with a team who actually listens.

This is what we do.
And we love it. 💚

Weight loss over 40 can feel as mismatched as coffee and ketchup. ☕️🍅

And honestly? That’s what happens when your hormones and your wellness plan aren’t working together.

Your metabolism slows…
Your energy shifts…
Your sleep, stress, cravings, and mood all change…

And without addressing hormones and daily habits, nothing “sticks.”

That’s why we created the Signature Merit Method Membership — a plan that brings hormones and wellness into one place so your body finally works with you, not against you.

If everything has felt harder lately, this is why.
