Drop the Weight and the Risk to Your Memory and Heart

Expert coaching for over 50s to lose weight and prevent the risk of memory loss, stroke, and heart disease

Hi I’m Christine Okafor-Mawdsley

a Weight Management Coach for Heart & Brain Health.

If you’re in your midlife and you’re starting to notice

weight gain with any of the following:

brain fog,

memory loss

low energy

rising blood pressure.

high cholesterol

high blood sugar level (tiredness, thirst)

I can help you

After reversing my own prediabetes, high cholesterol, and early-stage kidney disease, I became passionate about helping others take control before things get serious — whether that’s type 2 diabetes, stroke, or vascular dementia.

If you’ve been told you’re on the edge — borderline diabetic, slightly hypertensive, a little forgetful — or you just know something isn’t right… you’re in the right place.

My approach blends lifestyle medicine with down-to-earth coaching. We focus on small, meaningful changes that help you:

  • Lose weight in a brain- and heart-healthy way

  • Balance your blood sugar naturally

  • Improve focus, memory, and energy

  • Reduce your long-term risk of stroke, dementia, and diabetes

I work with clients 1:1 in programs designed to rebuild confidence, strength, and clarity — not just for the next 12 weeks, but for life.

If your parent had a stroke, heart attack, or memory loss — and you’re wondering if you’re next — I help you change that story.”

  • As a pharmacist turned Health Coach, I bring over 30 years of healthcare experience, combining science-backed knowledge with a passion for helping people lose weight and improve their heart and brain health. This unique background allows me to offer a holistic approach

    Through my coaching, I guide you in adopting a smart lifestyle that supports your long-term health goals. Together, we can create a personalised plan that helps you confidently manage your health and gives you the tools to thrive well into the future."

    Let’s work together to alleviate your concerns, empower you with the right knowledge, and equip you with the tools to live your healthiest, longest life.

Are you...

  • Struggling to follow a brain and heart healthy diet, even though you know it’s important?

  • Tired of trying health plans/diets that don’t work long-term especially with conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or cholesterol?

  • Battling low energy, brain fog, or food cravings that derail your day?

  • Finding it hard to stay active or fit movement into your day?

  • Struggling to stay consistent with healthy habits?

  • Worried about how to protect your brain, kidneys, or heart from further damage or prevent stroke or vascular dementia?

  • Feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or not sleeping well, and unsure how it’s affecting your health?

If any of these sound familiar, I understand how frustrating and overwhelming it can be and I’m here to help you take back control of your health.

“Discover the power of health”

Imagine reclaiming your health, restoring your energy, and protecting your brain, heart, and kidneys—starting today.

That possibility is real. With simple, sustainable lifestyle changes, you can prevent or slow the progression of serious conditions like stroke, vascular dementia, diabetes, heart disease, and chronic kidney disease.

  • But what could this truly mean for you?

    ✔️ More energy and fewer crashes so you can enjoy your day without exhaustion

    ✔️ Feeling in control of your health, no longer overwhelmed by blood pressure,

    cholesterol, or blood sugar

    ✔️ Finding a natural balance with your weight, no more extreme, restrictive diets or food guilt.

    ✔️ Peace of mind knowing you’re actively protecting your brain, reducing your risk of stroke and

    memory loss, and letting go of fear about the future.

    ✔️ Improved mood, less anxiety, and a clearer, sharper mind free from brain fog

    ✔️ Restful, restorative sleep that leaves you refreshed

    ✔️ Strength, mobility, and confidence in your body again

    ✔️ A healthier future, not just for you, but for the people who rely on you

    ✔️ Longer life expectancy, with greater quality of life and more time to spend with your family

I’m ready to help you achieve this: This is about more than managing a condition—it’s about taking

charge of your future.

And I’m here to guide and support you every step of the way.


Why Work with a Weight Management Coach for Heart and Brain ?

Improving your health isn’t just about losing weight or following the latest diet. It's about losing weight sustainably and protecting what matters most, your brain and heart through meaningful, science-based lifestyle changes.

Many people are told to “eat better” or “move more,” but they’re left without the support or understanding of how to do that in a way that fits their real life, medical needs, and emotional wellbeing. That’s where I come in.

As a Health Coach and a former pharmacist who reversed my own chronic health conditions, I provide personalised guidance, accountability, and evidence-based support to help you take back control of your health.

Together, we’ll create a practical, sustainable plan around:

  • 🥦 Nutrition that supports your brain, blood vessels, and blood sugar

  • 🧘 Stress management to protect your heart and cognitive health

  • 🚶 Movement that fits your ability and energises your body

  • 😴 Sleep and daily habits that promote healing and resilience

Whether you’re living with or at risk of:

  • Stroke or vascular dementia

  • Heart disease, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol

…you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Medication can help manage symptoms, but lifestyle changes are what truly change the trajectory of your long-term health.

Let me help you feel empowered, informed, and supported as you work toward a healthier, longer, more vibrant life.
