How Noelle Lose 12 Pounds, Cleared Her Skin, and Got Her Energy Back—All While Earning Her Master’s Degree

How Noelle Lose 12 Pounds, Cleared Her Skin, and Got Her Energy Back—All While Earning Her Master’s Degree

Noelle is a determined graduate student who spent years feeling out of sync with her body. Juggling a demanding academic schedule and chronic PCOS symptoms, like fatigue, hormonal acne, irregular periods, and post-meal crashes, left her drained and discouraged.She was doing everything “right,” yet nothing seemed to stick. What she needed wasn’t another strict diet. She needed a sustainable plan that worked with her life, not against it.And that’s exactly what she found with Aspect.

Before Aspect: Drained, Inflamed, and Running on Empty

Before starting the program, Noelle often felt completely wiped out after meals. Her skin would flare with painful breakouts, her energy tanked midday, and her cycles were completely unpredictable. Even her favorite activity, running, felt impossible with the constant fatigue.

With no consistent routine and a schedule packed with classes, deadlines, and exams, she needed a new approach, something that prioritized her reality.


What She Wanted

Noelle wasn’t chasing overnight results. She had clear, meaningful goals:

  • Lose weight in a way that felt natural and lasting
  • Wake up with more energy and avoid post-meal crashes
  • Finally, clear her skin
  • Reduce swelling and inflammation
  • Bring back a regular cycle
  • Rebuild her fitness and enjoy running agai

How Aspect Helped: Small Changes, Big Results

Working one-on-one with a board-certified coach, Noelle followed a plan tailored to her lifestyle, symptoms, and goals.

Balanced meals + consistent timing
Instead of restricting foods, Noelle focused on nutrient-dense meals with a steady rhythm. This helped stabilize her blood sugar and reduce inflammation, leading to smoother energy levels all day.

Movement that works for her
She reintroduced running gradually, on her terms. With a focus on consistency over intensity, she started feeling stronger, not burned out.

Skin and hormone support
By making nutrition changes that targeted inflammation and hormone imbalances, Noelle started seeing something she hadn’t in years—clear skin.

Deeper hormonal insights
By Month 3, Noelle joined the PCOS Protocol, which gave her deeper, symptom-based guidance aligned with her cycle.

Accountability and support
Even when school got intense, her coach was there. With practical check-ins and strategies to keep momentum going, she stayed on track, even during finals.

  • Established balanced eating habits, even under pressure
  • Most of all, feels confident, motivated, and in control

Noelle’s Words to Others

“I finally feel like I understand my body. I’m not chasing symptoms anymore. I have tools that actually work. And I’m proud of the progress I’ve made.”
