Moving Past Menopause Weight Gain Without Extreme Diets | Vicki Jones

Vicki Jones spent years as a music teacher before retraining as a naturopath in her fifties, eventually specialising in menopause nutrition. In this episode of Metabolic Balance Stories, host Cherry Wills talks with Vicki about the gap she noticed in her own practice, women doing everything "right" and still struggling with stubborn weight gain, and how discovering Metabolic Balance gave her a personalised, evidence-based approach to fill it. Vicki also shares her own honest experience trialling a prescription weight-loss medication before starting her own Metabolic Balance plan, and how her mood, energy and weight shifted once she moved to truly personalised nutrition.

The conversation moves into stories from Vicki's clinic: women who had been told their symptoms were simply something to accept, and what changed once their food was tailored to their own biochemistry. Vicki and Cherry talk candidly about hunger versus feeling "hangry," the importance of doing this kind of change with support rather than alone, and why food, self-care and personalised nutrition sit at the centre of lasting metabolic health. It's a warm, honest conversation for anyone curious about menopause, weight management, energy or what it really means to eat for your own body. Keep listening to hear Vicki's full story, and consider reaching out to a Metabolic Balance practitioner if you're ready to start your own.
