For women 40+ — perimenopause, menopause & beyond

Your Body Changed After 40.
Here’s What Actually Works Now.

Most weight-loss advice was built for a younger body.
My Slim Bod wasn’t.

A two-part programme, the eating approach your body responds to now, and the inner work most programmes don't touch. Both. Together. Because one without the other is why it hasn't stuck.

  • Understand why it stopped working. Not because you lost discipline. Because your body changed and most advice hasn't caught up. This does.
  • Know what to eat without starting over every Monday. A simple, clear method that fits real life. No tracking, no perfect days required.
  • The mindset piece is built in. Not a bonus to get to later. The work underneath the patterns, the pulls, the part that decides when you're tired, it's inside the programme itself.
  • Both problems. Solved together. The eating piece and the inner piece. Most programmes pick one. My Slim Bod does both because that's the gap previous attempts fell into.

If this sounds like your week

You have tried.
You know what to do.
It still isn't working.

Why can I manage everything else in my life — but not this?

  • You know more about food than most people. It still isn't helping.
  • You have lost weight before. You know you can. You are not sure why the same approaches no longer give the same results.
  • Mornings are often clear. Evenings are often where the plan falls apart and you already know that about yourself.
  • You are not someone who gives up. But you are tired of starting again.
  • You are managing everything else in your life. Just not this.
  • Many women in this stage start to wonder if hormones are part of the picture but rarely get an answer that actually explains what's happening.
  • You are not looking for perfection. You would settle for something that works, and that you can maintain without it taking over your life.

You are not failing. You are trying to solve a problem that has genuinely changed using approaches built for a version of your body that no longer exists.

What changes and what doesn't

What the next year looks like,
either way.

What the next year looks like, either way.

The wardrobe keeps shrinking. You buy the same safe size because you've quietly decided this might be permanent.

  • With My Slim Bod: You understand what changed in your body. The confusion lifts. You stop wondering what's wrong with you.

The cycle doesn't stop. Plan, abandon, shame, restart. Every time you restart, you trust yourself a little less.

  • With My Slim Bod: You make one imperfect choice and move on. The argument in your head gets quieter. Food takes up less space.

If nothing changes

  • The wardrobe keeps shrinking. You buy the same safe size again this year not because you chose it, but because you've quietly decided this might be permanent. The radius of your life contracts, one small avoidance at a time.
  • The cycle doesn't stop. Plan, abandon, feel ashamed, restart. Every repetition makes the next start harder, not because you're weaker, but because your confidence in your own word to yourself erodes with each one.
  • The gap widens between who you are and how you feel in your body. You function well. You are capable. But there is a growing quiet distance from yourself that has nothing to do with your ability and everything to do with this.
  • You keep spending time, money and energy on approaches that don't account for where your body actually is right now and wondering, again, what is wrong with you when they don't work.

With My Slim Bod

  • You understand what actually changed in your body and why the old approaches stopped working. The confusion lifts. You stop wondering what is wrong with you and start working with what is actually happening.
  • You have a practical food approach built for where you are now not for a 35-year-old body. Satisfying, flexible, not reliant on willpower. Something you can maintain without it becoming another thing you abandon.
  • You understand the pattern that pulls you off course at night, not so you can judge yourself for it, but so you can interrupt it. Part Two works with that pattern directly and privately.
  • You make one imperfect choice and move on because the idea that one choice ruins a day has lost its grip. The argument in your head gets quieter. Food takes up less space. You think about something else.

The explanation

Your body changed.
The rules didn't.

Your body changed.
The rules didn't.

The approaches that used to work, eating less, exercising more, cutting calories, keeping going on willpower were built around a body with a different hormonal environment

After perimenopause begins, that environment changes substantially. This isn't just 'getting older', for many women it reflects a real shift in the body's hormonal environment and understanding it changes what you need to do..

I know this because I went through it myself, mid-forties, in menopause, watching everything I'd done before stop working. My Slim Bod exists because I couldn't find anything that actually addressed that.

My Slim Bod addresses two things at once: a practical food approach that works with your body now, and the inner pattern that keeps pulling you away from the plan you've already made. Solving one without the other is why previous attempts have stalled.

Fat distribution

For many women, declining oestrogen can shift how and where the body stores fat, often toward the abdomen. Hormonal changes, not effort, are frequently part of the picture.

Hunger & cravings

Hunger hormones, stress and disrupted sleep can all shift in this stage and for many women, that makes evening cravings feel stronger than before.

Calorie restriction

When stress hormones are high, eating very little can sometimes work against fat loss. Less food is not always the answer. The approach needs to change, not just the effort.

The second problem

There is often a learned pattern; plan, abandon, feel ashamed, restart, that has nothing to do with food and everything to do with what happens under stress, at night, when the day hasn't gone as intended.

clothing hanger

Getting dressed is just getting dressed.

The wardrobe is no longer where the day's mood is decided. You reach for what you want, not for what feels safe. This sounds small. For the women who know this feeling, it isn't.

incomplete circle

One imperfect choice stays one imperfect choice.

You make it, you move on. You don't spend the rest of the evening eating as though the day is already ruined because the idea that one choice ruins a day has lost its hold on you.

fork & knife

Food takes up less space in your mind.

Not because you are suppressing the thoughts, but because the negotiation has largely stopped. You think about something else. The mental energy you spent arguing with yourself comes back.

compass

You trust yourself again.

Not perfectly. Not every day. But the gap between what you intend and what you do has narrowed enough that you feel like someone whose word to herself means something.

01

The Masterclass

The main session shifts the pattern. Slim With Ease keeps it from drifting back, a short daily audio for the moments when the old pull is loudest and the new one needs reinforcing.

About Ilona

Ilona sitting in a chair

Ilona Hawser

I do not believe you need more shame.

I have worked with women who are accomplished, self-aware and genuinely trying. Women who can manage complex things in every other area of their lives and still find this one thing keeps not cooperating. I do not believe that woman is lazy. I do not believe she is broken.

For most of my adult life, I could manage my body when I put my mind to it. In my mid-forties, going through menopause, that stopped being true. The same effort produced nothing, or made things worse. 

The weight that started moving without explanation. The evenings that unravelled the day. The things that had always worked, suddenly not working 

It wasn't until I started working with what was actually happening hormonally and looking honestly at the pattern underneath the food that anything genuinely shifted.

I built My Slim Bod because the two things that changed everything for me were understanding and inner work. One without the other had never been enough. That is what I know how to offer.

A clinical hypnotherapist, RTT practitioner and IFS-informed coach. Her approach draws from hypnotherapy, Rapid Transformational Therapy and Internal Family Systems practical modalities for working with behavioural patterns, not against them.

Who this is for

Is My Slim Bod the right
place for you to begin?

Is My Slim Bod the right place for you to begin?

This is right for you if

  • Built for the hormonal and physical changes many women experience from their 40s onward — roughly 42 to 65
  • You have tried approaches that worked before and no longer do, and want to understand why
  • You want something practical and sustainable, not a punishing diet or unrealistic exercise programme
  • You want a private, self-directed approach with no group, no check-ins, no reporting

This is not the right fit if

  • You are in a medical situation requiring clinical supervision for weight management — please speak with your doctor first
  • You are looking for a rapid fix, a crash diet or a quick-result programme. My Slim Bod works with the pattern that makes quick fixes fail.
  • You are significantly younger than perimenopause age, this has been built specifically for this hormonal stage

In their own words

What women are saying

What women are saying

I've tried everything over the past few years and nothing has stuck. What got me was that Ilona explained exactly why, in a way that made me think she'd been watching me. For the first time I didn't feel like the problem was me.

- sarah, 52

I'd been doing the same things that used to work and getting nowhere. I actually cried a bit when I understood the hormone piece, not because it was sad, just because I'd spent years thinking I was lazy. I wasn't. My body had just changed and nobody told me.

- claire, 48

Tuesday night. I did the thing Ilona suggests instead of grabbing a snack. Honestly didn't think it would work. Woke up the next morning actually proud of myself, which felt ridiculous but also really good.

- amanda, 55

I had a bad weekend with food and normally that would have meant starting over on Monday with a whole new plan. Instead I just had my normal breakfast and carried on. The mental argument around food is getting quieter and that's the part I didn't expect.

- Joanne, 51

Your questions

Frequently asked

Frequently asked

What exactly is My Slim Bod?

A two-part digital programme. Part One is a masterclass explaining what changes in the body during perimenopause and beyond, and what to do about it. Part Two is a guided audio session with Ilona that works with the pattern underneath the plan — the part that makes you abandon in the evening what you decided in the morning. Self-paced.

What does Part Two actually involve? I'm wary of "inner work."

You listen to Ilona's recorded voice and follow the prompts. You respond internally, you don't speak aloud, share anything with anyone, or perform anything. It is private and self-directed. The session works with the habitual pattern that pulls you off course, the one that kicks in under stress, at night, after a day that didn't go as planned. You need no prior experience. Just headphones and a quiet moment.

Is this a keto diet?

No. The food approach is a flexible lower-carbohydrate framework — not strict keto, not calorie counting, not a rigid meal plan. Built around satisfying, practical meals. Overly rigid low-carb approaches are specifically avoided because they tend to intensify the plan-then-crash cycle this programme is trying to break.

Will this work if I've tried everything?

My Slim Bod doesn't promise specific outcomes because honest promises in this category are rare and the range of results is too personal. What it offers is a genuine explanation of what changed and a practical response to both the physical and the habitual side of the struggle. Many women find that the explanation alone changes how they approach everything else. If it doesn't offer what you need, the 7-day guarantee is there.

I've started things before and stopped. Why would this be different?

Part of what My Slim Bod addresses directly is the start-stop cycle, not by promising you'll be more disciplined this time, but by working with what actually drives that pattern. The programme is also self-contained, not 12 weeks of mounting modules. You access it, you use it, you decide.

What if it isn't right for me?​

Email within 7 days for a full refund. No explanation needed. That is the Decide-for-Yourself Guarantee.

Is this a subscription?​

$97 is a single payment. No recurring charges. No monthly fees. You pay once and access the programme.

How long will I have access?​

Lifetime access.

Is support included?​

Email support for questions, but no personal coaching, community or ongoing Q&A.

You Do Not Need
Another Promise.
You Need a
Different First Step.

You already know what it feels like to begin with rules, pressure and the determination to be perfect. You also know how quickly that determination can disappear when you are tired, stressed or standing alone in the kitchen at night.

The answer is not to lower your standards or stop wanting change. It is to stop asking an incomplete solution to solve the whole problem.

My Slim Bod gives you practical guidance for the food on your plate and a guided way to work with the inner pattern that can pull you away from what you want. One payment. A first step that finally works with both sides of you.

The cost of waiting is not $97.
It is another month of the same cycle.
