Fat-loss coach used five 'cheat codes' to lose eight stone — and you can too

One Utah woman suffered with diets for years, then came across a no-nonsense plan to keep the weight off — now she shares her secrets to the world

After shedding an incredible eight stone, a woman triumphantly shared her journey that took 15 years of dieting failures. Nicole Dvoracek once weighed 17st 8lbs, battling cycles of dieting, secretive binging, tears in changing rooms, and feeling trapped in her own body.


Now, at 40 and a svelte 9st 2lbs, she's brimming with confidence. The Salt Lake City fitness guru said: "It took me 15 years to get here, but it didn't need to take that long. If I could go back and talk to my 25-year-old self, I'd say: 'You're not broken, the plan is'. I tried everything, and it all failed."

Growing up, Nicole was constantly hit with messages filled with toxic diet culture mantras such as "Eat less. Move more. Starve to be worthy." She cycled through countless diets, which she admits worked temporarily but ultimately led her back to square one, each time with additional weight.

Fed up, Nicole decided to invest in herself by hiring a coach for personalized guidance that addressed her hormones, stress levels, sleep habits, and overall lifestyle.

"That man didn't just change my life, he saved it," she declared. With his help, she obtained necessary skills that shifted her focus from dieting to truly living.


Beyond maintaining her own weight loss, Nicole has extended her success by guiding hundreds of women to similar victories. Her masterclass divulges what she dubs "cheat codes" for lasting fat loss without starvation.

"The fastest way to your dream body?" she said. "A slow, sustainable plan that actually works long term. Shocker, right?"

Nicole's five "No BS" fat loss rules

  • Protein is Queen – "Eat 0.7-1 gram per pound of your goal weight. Every day. No exceptions."
  • Track Like a Ninja – "You're eating more than you think. Macros matter — especially protein and fiber."
  • Lift Heavy S**t – "Cardio won’t build your dream body. Strength training will."
  • Walk Every Damn Day – "8,000-10,000 steps a day. It's free, easy, and insanely effective."
  • Ditch the Diet Mentality – "It's not about less — it’s about more. More food. More muscle. More freedom."

Nicole is now a self-proclaimed "no-BS, tough-love" fat loss guru, providing a beacon of hope for countless women at war with their weight and mindset. She's expanded her coaching to include a hormone optimization team due to the frequent neglect women face from standard healthcare, reports Wales Online.

"Menopause requires strategy," Nicole explains. "We catch what doctors miss because we test what they don't. We use comprehensive lab testing alongside high-touch, one-on-one coaching to create truly customized plans, far beyond the tired 'eat less, move more' advice. It's the reason behind the life-changing transformations my team has produced."

Her team combines thorough lab tests with personalized, one-on-one coaching for custom plans that transcend basic 'eat less, move more' guidance, resulting in impactful personal transformations. She revealed: This is the secret sauce. It's not just about fat loss anymore. It's about building a foundation for lifelong health."


According to Nicole, simplistic solutions often result in women looking like "melted candlesticks."

She warned against losing weight without consideration for strength and protein, saying: "If you're losing weight without strength training or protein, you're just a smaller, squishier version of your old self. That's not toned. That's skinny fat."

Her approach now emphasizes building muscle, reviving metabolic health, and encouraging women to ignore the scale's tyranny. "Your metabolism isn't broken. Your plan is."

Nicole dedicates her expertise to support women dealing with menopause, hormonal disruptions, and fatigue. She advocates for a tailored strategy, saying: "You can't diet the way you did at 25. You need a plan for this season of life.

"You're not undisciplined. You've just been fed b******t. The quick fix is what's keeping you stuck. This isn't just about fat loss. This is about freedom. About showing up in your life fully, confident, strong, and finally in control. Once we get it off, we keep it off. That's my promise."
