HOW IT ALL STARTED

Did you know that I personally had Bariatric Weight Loss Surgery in 2012! 

Having weight loss surgery sounds great on paper. However, having the procedure and having support and education was 2 completely different challenges.

Unfortunately the support provided was limited. Navigating my new way of life with a Lapband was difficult and isolating to say the least, and this in turn lead me on a journey of self-support and discovery. 

In 2017 after many years of weight fluctuations and issues with the Lapband (daily purging and vitamin and mineral depletion) I decided to have all the fluid removed from my Lapband (so that it became inactive) and changed my approach to weight loss. Through countless hours of education in books and Google I was armed with new goals and new nutritional expectations and surprised myself with greater weight loss success, lifestyle changes and weight management.

Fuelled with the need to spread the love and support to others, I studied the science of nutrition and became fully qualified Nutritional Coach. I also furthered my education for other accreditations in health and nutrition for adolescence and also preconception & pregnancy. I am still a student today fuelling my need for more!

With the knowledge and health in my favour, I decided to have Lapband Removal Surgery in 2021 so that it could no longer cause havoc on my natural functioning body. My health continues to improve every month and I'm playing catch-up with the lack of vitamins and nutrition my body was unable to sustain since 2012.

Now, its my turn to help educate and guide in YOU. Show you what you are capable of, and support and hold your hand as you embark in your health and lifestyle journey. 

Anastasia Ozcan

Certified Nutritional Coach

I'm a 58 year old women and I have tried every diet out there but nothing worked for me. I would lose a little weight and then gain more than I had lost.

At this point in my life I had given up hope and was going into depression over my weight. I was always hungry.

After I was Introduced to Anastasia I was hopeful again. 

Her way was very beautiful and encouraging. After two weeks I stopped getting hungry and stopped craving fried food or sugar. I had many bowel problems that caused me restless sleeps that have now disappeared and now I have restful sleep.

I was taking medicine for my diabetes but have now stopped since my blood test came back as normal.

I had no knowledge in so many things that she has taught me and guided me in an amazing way through her nutritional knowledge. 

Now people have told me my face also looks more youthful for my age!

I had no idea that food can help me so much. I highly recommend Anastasia as a nutritional couah to all my family.

I've worked with Anastasia on re-evaluating my diet and nutrition. She helped me think about the foods I was eating and their impact – both positive and negative on my overall health. I’ve learned what foods to eat more of (fiber & protein) and there impact on my weight loss journey. Her approach is based on education and her own experience. 

I was taking medicine for my diabetes but have now stopped since my blood test came normal. I feel taken care of and listened to and highly reccomend Anastasia to anyone that needs some guidance and to be truly heard and understood. Thank you Anastasia

I was lucky enough to have been invited by no other than Anastasia herself into a 4 week program whilst I was undertaking the Steptember Challenge.

Anastasia was very informative regarding the program and prepared a full customised program based on my lifestyle and what suited me best. I was still eating the foods I like without really stretching myself and following a strict "diet". Anastasia taught me it's not really a "diet" but a way of life! It truly is!

At the end of the 4 weeks, I felt alot healthier than myself 4 weeks ago. "Only person you have to compare yourself to is your older self" . I lost a good 6kg and continued to lose more the following weeks by sticking to the key things which Anastasia had helped me learn.

Definitely happy to recommend Anastasia to anyone seriously looking for a healthier lifestyle

Nutritional coaching was such a great benefit for me. 

The knowledge and tools I gained from it gave me such a better understanding on what you’re consuming and how it affects the body and weight loss. 

It was like studying food technology at school to some degree and you even realise that you knew some of these things but you forget it over time. I am a visual person so being able to see and note down what I am having and the calories was amazing.

I loved the support and accountability throughout. It shows that whatever journey you are on with your body it isn’t a one size fits all.
