Emily C.

Women's health and lifestyle advice: healthy weight gain, nutrition for shift workers.

"Can't recommend Dr Marshall enough. Not only was the process easy and her plan so detailed and personal to me, but really interesting and I've learnt a lot about my own diet and health. I struggled with ensuring a good diet whilst working shifts therefore Dr Marshall created a list of meals appropriate for shifts and recommended simple changes to my routine that are easily acheivable. There's absolutely no pressure or judgement either... Dr Marshall will work with you to create the best plan."

Anjulee S.

Fertility and PCOS.

"I feel mentally healthier & have completely changed my lifestyle & eating habits. I never felt judged or any shame, I felt completely at ease speaking with Grace. She is so knowledgeable & helpful. Her advice and guidance has helped me lose nearly 2 stone. I would 100% recommend Grace, infact I already have... she's such a star."

Bal. S

Post-Partum: fatigue and lifestyle support

"I felt very comfortable and able to speak freely about how I felt, you were also very empathetic as relatable to my current situation. I felt heard and helped massively in understanding my current lifestyle and what I needed to do in order to see some changes."

One of my clients told me this week:

“I’m not thinking about food all day anymore.”

Those are the moments I love most.

Because good nutrition isn’t about eating perfectly.

It’s about giving you more headspace for everything else that matters.
💚

These sunflowers caught my eye this week. 🌻

They reminded me that growth isn’t rushed, linear or perfect.

The same is true for our health.

So if you’re feeling like you’re haven’t “done enough” this week, this is your reminder that small, consistent actions matter far more than perfection.🌻

Sometimes the kitchen teaches us more than the recipe does 🥖☀️

This was supposed to be sourdough… but the heatwave had other plans! My starter, timings and best intentions all went a little off track, so I pivoted and ended up with this focaccia instead.

A huge thank you to my friend Marie for sharing this recipe with me and being on hand with advice (and encouragement!) throughout the day while I navigated my dough drama. It might not have turned out exactly as planned, but it was such a fun process — and the end result was honestly delicious.

Not perfectly risen, not “Instagram perfect”… but crispy edges, a soft middle, and plenty of flavour. A good reminder that food doesn’t have to be flawless to be nourishing or enjoyable.

As a nutritional advisor, I love the reminder that there’s room for flexibility in the kitchen. Health isn’t about perfection — it’s about balance, enjoyment, and making the most of what you have.

Here’s to the happy accidents (especially when they taste this good!) 🌿

Something I noticed in clinic this week...

I spoke to several women with completely different stories.

Different ages. Different jobs. Different health goals.

But so many of them apologised.

“I know I should be doing better.”
“I’ve got no willpower.”
“I just can’t seem to get it right.”

The truth? Most women don’t need more guilt. They don’t need another diet or someone telling them to try harder.

They need support that fits around their real life.

If you’ve ever felt like you “should” be able to do it all on your own, you’re certainly not alone. 💚

If you’re ready for personalised support, I’d love to help. You can book a free consultation via the link in my bio.

Keeping it authentic with the spelling mistake.

Ps. You’re not lazy.

One of the hardest things to hear as a patient can be:

*”Everything looks normal.”*

Of course it’s reassuring that blood tests don’t show anything serious—but it doesn’t make the tiredness, brain fog or lack of energy disappear.

This client came to me feeling exactly like that.

Rather than searching for a quick fix, we looked at the bigger picture: her eating habits, daily routine, lifestyle and how these were affecting her energy.

She began noticing improvements in her energy, digestion, cravings and mental clarity. Like many of us, she also found that busy periods made consistency more challenging—but she understood what she needed to get back on track.

One of my favourite parts of her feedback wasn’t about symptoms. It was this:

”I felt heard.”

Because feeling listened to is often the first step towards making meaningful, sustainable changes.

If you’re feeling exhausted despite being told everything is “normal”, I’d love to help you explore whether nutrition and lifestyle could be part of the picture.

💚 Book a free, no-obligation consultation via the link in my bio.

The women who come to see me are usually intelligent, motivated and already know a lot about nutrition.

They’ve listened to podcasts.
They’ve read the articles.
They’ve followed the Instagram accounts.
The problem isn’t usually a lack of information.

The problem is figuring out what applies to them.
Their symptoms.
Their lifestyle.
Their goals.

That’s where personalised support can make all the difference.

If you’ve been trying to figure things out on your own and feeling stuck, I offer a free consultation to discuss your goals and see whether we’d be a good fit.

💚 Link in bio.

🍃 Not every nutritionist is the right fit for every woman.
And that’s okay.

The women I work best with are usually not looking for another diet, a quick fix, or a list of foods they’re “allowed” to eat.

They’re often feeling frustrated because they’ve been trying hard for a long time.

Maybe they’re struggling with PCOS.
Maybe they’re exhausted despite “normal” blood tests.
Maybe their digestion isn’t where they want it to be.
Maybe they’re worried about their weight, fertility, hormones, or relationship with food.

Most have one thing in common:
They know something needs to change, but they’re not sure what to focus on anymore.

My role isn’t to give you a perfect meal plan.
It’s to help you understand your body, identify what’s getting in the way, and create realistic changes that fit your life.

If you’re wondering whether nutritional support could help you, I offer a free, no-obligation consultation where we can discuss your goals and see whether we’re a good fit.

💚 Link in bio to book or send me a message if you’d like to ask a question first.

I’d love to hear from you.

This is the kind of meal you’ll find on our table on a random weekday.

King prawns, garlic, lemon, cherry tomatoes, fresh parsley and tagliatelle - all from Aldi 😎

Simple.
Flavourful.
Satisfying.

One thing I think social media often gets wrong about nutrition is making healthy eating look complicated.

Most of us don’t need dozens of superfoods, expensive ingredients or elaborate meal plans.

We need meals that:

✓ Taste good

✓ Fit around busy lives

✓ Contain a balance of nutrients

✓ Are enjoyable enough to make again next week

As a women’s health nutritional consultant, I spend far more time helping women build realistic habits than chasing nutritional perfection.

Because the healthiest way of eating isn’t the one that looks best on Instagram.

It’s the one that works in your real life.

🍝

👋🏻 If you’ve followed me for a while, you’ll know I’m not interested in helping women eat perfectly.

I’m interested in helping them feel better.

As a GP and women’s health nutritionist, I’ve seen how much time and energy women spend worrying about food, weight, symptoms and whether they’re doing enough.

Many of the women I work with are already trying incredibly hard.

They don’t need more guilt.

They don’t need another restrictive plan.

And they certainly don’t need someone telling them to “just try harder.”

Instead, they need personalised support, practical strategies, and a plan that fits around real life.

Outside of work, you’ll usually find me entertaining the kids, drinking coffee, out walking, spending time with family and friends, or cooking with my husband (the bigger foodie in our house!).

Those things aren’t separate from health.

They’re part of it.

Because I believe health should make life bigger, not smaller.

If you’re new here, welcome 🥰

And if you’re struggling with PCOS, digestive symptoms, weight concerns, fatigue, fertility nutrition, or simply feeling stuck with your health, I’d love to help.

Tell me below: what content would you like to see more of on this page?

One of my new favourite weeknight dinners 🍝

Turkish meatballs, tomato sauce and wholewheat spaghetti.

As a women’s health nutritional advisor, I spend a lot of time helping women move away from the idea that healthy eating needs to be perfect.

Most of us don’t need more complicated recipes.

We need meals that are:

✔️ Satisfying

✔️ Protein-rich

✔️ Family-friendly

✔️ Realistic on a busy Tuesday night

This is one of mine.

If you’d like the recipe, comment “MEATBALLS” below and I’ll send it over 🌼

PCOS. IBS. Heavy, irregular periods. Weight struggles.

When this client first came to see me, her goals were simple:

✨ Feel healthier
✨ Lose weight
✨ Improve her fertility health

Like many women, she’d spent years trying hard but feeling stuck.

Together, we didn’t follow a restrictive diet or chase quick fixes.

Instead, we focused on the foundations:

✓ Balanced meals
✓ Adequate protein
✓ Blood sugar balance
✓ Supporting digestive health
✓ Sustainable habits that fitted around real life

The result?

✔️ 1 stone 11 pounds lost
✔️ Better digestion
✔️ More energy
✔️ Reduced cravings
✔️ Improved mood
✔️ A healthier relationship with food
✔️ Greater confidence in managing her health

But my favourite part of her feedback wasn’t the weight loss.

It was this:

“I never felt judged or ashamed discussing my nutrition and weight. It’s normally something I’m very sensitive about, but I felt completely at ease.”

Because nutrition support shouldn’t leave you feeling guilty, overwhelmed, or like you’ve failed.

It should help you understand your body, feel supported, and create changes that actually last.

If you’re struggling with PCOS, weight concerns, digestive symptoms, or feeling confused about where to start, I’d love to help.

"Your blood tests are normal." It's meant to be reassuring.

But if you're still exhausted, struggling to concentrate, feeling flat, or wondering why everything feels harder than it should, it can leave you feeling frustrated and unheard.

Many women come to me convinced they should just push through. They tell themselves they're lazy, unmotivated, or simply not coping as well as everyone else.

But health is rarely that simple.

Blood tests are important, but they only tell part of the story.

💤 How are you sleeping?
🥘 How are you eating?
❗️What's your stress load like?
🦸‍♀️ How much are you carrying for everyone else?
🪫 How long have you been running on empty?

Sometimes the most important clues aren't found on a lab report.

If you've ever been told everything is "normal" but you still don't feel like yourself, you're not imagining it—and it's worth looking at the bigger picture.

In my 1:1 clinical nutrition practice, we don’t just treat the paperwork. We look at your life, your symptoms, and your daily reality to build a strategy that actually restores your energy.

🍓 Food is about more than nutrition.

Last week I made this fruit platter for our playgroup.

One thing I often notice is that women can become so focused on eating “correctly” that they lose sight of the other roles food plays in our lives.

Food helps us connect.
Food brings people together.
Food can be enjoyed, shared and celebrated.

Nutrition matters, but so does the experience of eating.

💭 How many of these thoughts have crossed your mind?

✨ “I know what to do, I just can’t seem to do it.”
✨ “I’ve tried everything.”
✨ “I have no willpower.”
✨ “I keep starting over.”

These are things I hear from women all the time.

The truth is, struggling with food, eating habits or weight doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It doesn’t mean you’re lazy, unmotivated or lacking willpower.

More often, it means you’ve been trying to follow approaches that don’t fit your life, your needs or your circumstances.

Sustainable change rarely comes from being stricter. It comes from understanding what’s getting in the way, building realistic habits and finding an approach that works for you.

If any of these thoughts sound familiar, you’re not alone 💚

🌿 You don’t need another diet.

You don’t need more rules, restrictions, or guilt around food.

If you’ve tried “being good,” cutting things out, or starting over every Monday… and still feel stuck — you’re not the problem.

The problem is trying to be perfect with something that’s meant to be flexible and human.

What actually works?
Real habits. Regular meals. Flexibility. Support. Consistency over perfection.

Sustainable nutrition doesn’t feel like starting over every week.
It feels calm. Simple. Repeatable.

If food has been taking up too much space in your mind lately, this is your reminder: it doesn’t have to stay that way.

🤍

The pavlova isn’t the problem 🧁

Many women blame a single dessert for their struggles with food. In reality, the problem is often a cycle of restriction, guilt and starting over.

A healthy relationship with foods includes foods like this too 🍰

One of the biggest myths about healthy eating is that certain foods need to be earned, compensated for, or avoided completely.

For many women, the constant cycle of being “good” and then feeling guilty after eating enjoyable foods is far more damaging than the pavlova itself.

Nutrition isn’t just about nutrients.

It’s also about flexibility, enjoyment and being able to share food without anxiety.

A balanced approach makes room for both nourishing foods and foods eaten simply because they’re enjoyable.

💉 There’s a huge amount of conversation online around GLP-1 medications — and a lot of it sits at extremes.

They’re often presented as either:

💛 a miracle fix
or
❌ something entirely negative

But health, weight and nutrition are rarely that simple.

These medications may be helpful tools for some people, but they also sit within a much wider picture that still includes:

• nourishment
• muscle mass
• lifestyle factors
• long-term habits
• and individual health needs

Social media tends to favour black-and-white opinions.
Real health conversations are usually much more nuanced than that.

#glp1 #mounjaro #wegovy #ozempic #nutritionist #womenshealthnutrition #evidencebasednutrition #healthylifestyle #balancednutrition #nutritioneducation

🍃 Health conversations online can become very black and white.

❗️ Foods are labelled “good” or “bad.”
‼️ Approaches are either praised or criticised completely.
❌ And complex topics are often reduced to short headlines or quick opinions.

But real health is usually much more nuanced than that.

What supports one person may not support another.
Context matters.
Individual health matters.
Sustainability matters.

🌼 The healthiest approach is rarely built through extremes — it’s usually built through consistent, supportive habits over time.

#womenshealth #nutritionist #balancednutrition #healthylifestyle #wellbeing #mindfuleating #realisticnutrition #healthyhabits #womenshealthnutrition #foodfreedom

💉 GLP-1 medications are one of the biggest shifts happening in nutrition and weight management conversations right now.

Current research shows they can support significant weight loss and improvements in some health markers for many people.

But the conversation is often much more nuanced than social media makes it seem.

There are still important discussions around:

• muscle mass preservation
• long-term nutrition
• sustainability
• weight regain
• and individual differences in response

Part 3 of the series looks at what current evidence is showing so far — while recognising that research is still evolving.

Next: what social media often gets wrong about these medications.

🥚 A simple breakfast or lunch option, but a balanced one.

Scrambled eggs. Tomatoes. Spinach. Wholemeal toast.

Meals don’t have to be complicated, perfectly planned or “clean” to support your health.

Including a balance of

• protein
• fibre
• carbs
• fats

Can help support

✔️ fullness
✔️ energy
✔️ concentration
✔️ overall nourishment

Simple realistic meals are often the ones that feel most sustainable long term.

#balancedbreakfast #womenshealthmatters #womenshealth #nutrition #realisticnutrition

💉 GLP-1 medications can affect appetite significantly, which means nutrition still plays an important role alongside them.

Eating less doesn’t automatically mean nutritional needs disappear.

Reduced appetite can sometimes make it harder to:

• eat enough overall
• maintain protein intake
• support energy levels
• preserve muscle mass during weight loss

This is why meal balance and adequate nourishment still matter — even when appetite changes.

Part 2 of the series looks at some of the key nutrition considerations alongside GLP-1 medications, including protein, meal structure and overall intake.

Next up: what current research is showing about these medications.

#glp1 #mounjaro #wegovy #ozempic #nutritionist #womenshealthnutrition #evidencebasednutrition #proteinintake #balancednutrition #healthylifestyle

🍳 Breakfasts that look “healthy” aren’t always satisfying.

A more balanced breakfast should include:
✔️ protein
✔️ fibre
✔️ carbs
✔️ fats

This combination can help support:
💛 fullness
💛 steadier energy
💛 concentration
💛 reduced cravings later on

This bowl includes scrambled oats (egg/banana/oats), berries, Greek yogurt, peanut butter and dark chocolate — simple ingredients, but a balance that’s much more supportive than trying to make breakfast as small or “clean” as possible.

Often, feeling more satisfied after meals isn’t about more control around food.
It’s about building meals that actually meet your needs.

Being real- this fills me up and is so much tastier than a bowl of cereal. So if you have a day with 10 mins to prep your breakfast- then do it!

💉 GLP-1 medications are becoming a much bigger part of conversations around weight, health and nutrition — but there’s also a lot of confusion online.

This series is here to break down the basics in a clear, balanced and evidence-based way.

Part 1 covers:
* what GLP-1 medications are
* how they work
* why they’re prescribed
* and some common side effects

There’s a lot more nuance to these medications than social media often shows, so over the next few posts I’ll also be covering:
* nutrition considerations
* current research
* muscle mass & protein intake
* common misconceptions

🍗 A realistic lunch using leftovers + added protein.

Leftover orzo and roasted veg with marinated grilled chicken added on top 🥗

Balanced meals don’t need to be complicated or made from scratch every time.

Adding a source of protein to leftovers can help make meals:

* more satisfying
* more supportive for energy
* and keep you fuller for longer

Simple, practical meals like this are often the most sustainable.

#balancedmeals #healthymealideas #womenshealthnutrition #nutritiontips #easymeals #mealideas #bloodsugarbalance #realisticnutrition #healthyhabits #simplemeals

🧀 A lot of people feel “out of control” around food and assume they need more discipline.

But often, the cycle actually starts with restriction.

Skipping meals, cutting out foods, trying to “be good,” or constantly eating less than your body needs can make cravings, overeating and food fixation feel even stronger later on.

This isn’t a lack of willpower.

It’s your body responding to inconsistency and under-fuelling.

More food rules rarely create more balance.
More consistency usually does.

🍃 A reminder from a walk in nature.

Health isn’t something that exists only in your food choices.

It’s also how you live, move, rest, and experience your day-to-day life.

Nutrition matters — but it’s only one part of a much bigger picture.

When food starts to feel like it takes over everything, it can be helpful to zoom out again.

The goal is support, not control.
Structure, not restriction.
Balance, not perfection.

#womenshealth #nutritionist #balancednutrition #healthylifestyle #foodfreedom #wellbeing #mindfuleating #realisticnutrition #womenshealthnutrition #healthyhabits

🍟 Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are often talked about as something we should avoid completely — but the research is more nuanced than that.

🍫 Studies show higher intake of foods like crisps, chocolate, fizzy drinks, instant noodles, and many ready meals is linked with higher rates of weight gain, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and some cancers.

However, this does NOT mean these foods directly cause disease. The evidence is observational, meaning it shows patterns, not proof of cause and effect.

A more likely explanation is that these foods are:
* less filling
* easier to overeat
* often replace more balanced meals

For example, a day built around snacks and convenience foods is very different from one with regular, balanced meals including protein, fibre, and whole foods — even if both include some UPFs.

So the takeaway isn’t to cut out UPFs completely. It’s to focus on overall diet quality: ✔ regular meals ✔ enough protein and fibre ✔ mostly minimally processed foods ✔ flexibility for real life

Nutrition doesn’t need to be extreme to support your health.

🐟 Another example of a simple, balanced meal — no rules needed.

Cod + brown rice + pea fishcakes (airfried) with a side salad.

You’ve got:
• protein (cod)
* carbs (brown rice + breadcrumbs)
• fats (from cooking + coating)
• fibre (peas + salad)

This is the kind of meal that supports:
✔️ steady energy
✔️ better satiety
✔️ fewer cravings later on

Not because it’s “perfect” — but because it’s balanced.

If you’re trying to feel more energised, it’s often less about cutting foods out and more about building meals like this consistently.

#balancedmeals #womenshealthnutrition #hormonehealth #healthymealideas #easymeals #bloodsugarbalance #nutritiontips #simplemeals #realfood #energyeating

💡 A lot of people think “healthy” means they need stricter “eating rules.”

So they tighten control around food even more.

But often, it’s the rules themselves that drain energy — not the food.

When eating becomes rule-based, you can end up:
• overthinking simple meals
• unintentionally under-eating
• feeling less satisfied after eating
• swinging between “being good” and cravings later

Over time, this creates inconsistency — and energy starts to feel unpredictable.

What usually helps more than stricter rules is:
✔️ consistent meals
✔️ enough overall intake
✔️ flexibility with food choices
✔️ removing the “good/bad” mindset around eating

Your body doesn’t need perfection to feel steady.
It needs consistency and enough fuel.
