Suzanne: Restored thyroid health and completely revamped her relationship with food and weight

I first sought out Robyn's help because I was struggling with my weight, and had been since childhood. I had already cut out meat and dairy products, and was looking for a knowledgeable plant based practitioner to help me refine my diet to help me achieve my weight goals.

I was already consulting with a naturopath and thyroid specialist due to being hypothyroid, but my thyroid levels were all over the place and could not seem to be stabilised.

Robyn advised me to change my thyroid medication regime and also helped me fine-tune my diet.

Very unexpectedly, because I was not aware this was something she worked with, my anxiety and general outlook on life has been significantly improved especially in regards to how I perceive myself and how I perceived others saw me.

I have quite a different outlook on life and have been able to let go of a lot of emotional baggage thanks to the techniques Robyn taught me. I am in such a peaceful and relaxed place now and I’m not being triggered by so many of the things which used to cause me grief, greatly impacting my experience of life.

I really appreciated the fact that Robyn  got straight to the heart of the matter and didn’t sugar coat anything. I like working with people that can speak straight and not mollycoddle. I may have been fraught with anxiety and was carrying way too much baggage but it didn’t mean I needed to be treated like I was fragile. I know I am a strong person, I just needed guidance. I feel this allowed me to get on with getting better much faster.

I would recommend that anyone with weight and thyroid issues consult with Robyn because she clearly knows what she is talking about with thanks to the many years of research and experience she has behind her. She backs everything she talks about up with evidence.

It’s evident that while I thought my biggest problem was my weight, I had so much more going on that she got straight to the heart of. My weight is slowly going down now, I am so much happier and my relationships are so much more meaningful.

My weight is now the least of my worries and I feel that as I continue on a plant based diet, and my thyroid continues to heal after many decades of abuse that I’ll lose the weight without needing to have this quest be the obsession that it has for most of my life because of how I perceived myself and how I perceived others saw me.
