Hi, I'm Tara

I'm so excited to share my journey weightloss journey with you and invite you to join me on this incredible path to wellness. As someone who's tried just about every diet out there, I can honestly say that Thrive is something special. Let me tell you, I've been on quite a ride. I've lost an amazing 12 stone, going from over a size 28 to a size 18. And you know what? I'm not stopping there! I'm working towards a size I've never been in my adult life, and it feels fantastic. Now, I want to be totally upfront with you. I had bariatric surgery back in 2019, which definitely helped kickstart my weight loss. But here's the thing - keeping that weight off and continuing to lose more? That's been all me, with a big helping hand from Thrive. Before diving into Thrive, I was a consultant for a popular Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD) program, where I gained valuable experience and insight into the world of weight loss and coaching. One of my successful clients from that program had this to say: 'I had been struggling with my weight for almost the entirety of my life, but this was the one thing that helped me shed over 60kg of weight and really take back control of my life. What really helped me was having the support of a 1:1 Consultant to help me stay focussed and help maintain my determination, through all the emotional ups and downs which comes along with making a significant and permanent life-change. I was so lucky to have had Tara as my Consultant, she is truly wonderful. She was there with support and advice born out of her own personal weight-loss journey, so I always felt she genuinely understood and empathised in those times when the going was tougher. Having a weekly check-in with Tara was an essential part of my success, without her strong, sensitive guidance and practical, knowledgable support, I don't think I would have been anywhere near as sucessful. I would absolutely recommend Tara as a 1:1 Consultant to anyone looking to make a signiificant change like I did. Tara was there for me and has helped me truly feel like myself, for which I will always be hugely grateful." - Mark Pursglove During my time coaching with the VLCD program, I noticed something interesting. Men often seemed to have a more straightforward approach to weight loss - you tell them what to do, offer some coaching, they ask questions, and they do the thing. But for many women, myself included, the weight loss journey was often more complex, with layers of emotional and psychological factors at play. That's why I love that Thrive equips us with the tools to look at every aspect of ourselves. It's not just about shedding pounds; it's about achieving lasting and real transformation on every level. What I love about Thrive is how holistic it is. It's not just about the number on the scale - it's about total wellness. As someone living with bipolar disorder, I'm particularly drawn to the gut health aspect of this program. It's amazing how much our gut health can impact our hormonal balance and mental/emotional stability. Thrive gets that, and it's been a game-changer for me. Every day, I'm not just working on my physical health, but my emotional and mental well-being too. I'm creating new beliefs, letting go of old ones that were holding me back, and honestly, I'm so grateful for what this program has done for me.I'd love for you to join me on this journey. As your Independent Consultant, I'll be there to support you every step of the way. We can cheer each other on, celebrate our victories (big and small!), and work towards becoming the best versions of ourselves. So, what do you say? Are you ready to thrive with me? Let's do this together!
