Healthy Body Weight Loss

Healthy weight is a natural “side effect” of an individualized nutrition plan.

When metabolic health issues are addressed the body naturally moves back to a healthy weight and body composition. There are many factors that can positively influence weight, such as:

Focus on food quality rather than quantity using Functional Diet Analysis
Healthy, natural, daily movement
Creation of stress resiliency
Reduction of inflammation
Appropriate hormone balance

Functional Nutrition Therapy helps you lighten the load with individualized weight management that works for life.

Find Your Balance: Personalized Nutrition for Perimenopause & Menopause

When your hormones are shifting, “pushing through” isn’t a strategy—it’s a stress multiplier. Perimenopause and menopause can reshape sleep, energy, mood, weight, and digestion, but they don’t have to dictate your quality of life. At To Your Health Nutrition, we take a food-first, science-guided approach to calming hot-flash triggers, stabilizing blood sugar, supporting thyroid and adrenal function, and reducing the inflammation that amplifies symptoms. Your plan is built around your labs, health history, and daily reality—so it’s practical, sustainable, and genuinely yours.

This is the work Kathy Westover loves most. As the owner and founder of To Your Health Nutrition—and a certified Master Nutrition Therapist—Kathy specializes in the regulation of metabolic hormones in midlife women. She partners with local healthcare providers when needed, then designs targeted nutrition, supplement, and lifestyle strategies that help you reclaim steady energy, clearer thinking, deeper sleep, and an easier relationship with food. People value her mix of clinical rigor and compassionate coaching: you’ll feel heard, you’ll know why each step matters, and you’ll see progress you can feel.

If you’re navigating hormonal changes and want clear, personalized guidance—not another generic list of do’s and don’ts—Kathy is ready to help you turn this transition into a healthier, more confident next chapter. Reach out today to start feeling like yourself again.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is functional nutrition therapy, and how is it different from a standard diet plan?

Functional nutrition therapy is a holistic, science-based approach that looks at the whole person—not just calories or a single symptom. Kathy evaluates your nutrition, lifestyle, movement, sleep, and stress patterns, then uses her Functional Diet Analysis technique to design a plan tailored specifically to your body and health history. The goal is to address root causes of imbalance, support healthy aging, and reduce the risk of chronic disease, rather than offering a one-size-fits-all diet.

What kinds of health concerns can functional nutrition help with?

Functional nutrition therapy at To Your Health Nutrition is designed to support a wide range of chronic health concerns. Kathy regularly helps clients with women’s hormonal health, blood sugar imbalance and diabetes, thyroid problems and Hashimoto’s, GERD, IBS, celiac disease, SIBO, and other GI dysbiosis, cardiovascular disease and hypertension, cognitive decline, autoimmune and immune dysfunction, food allergies and sensitivities, and healthy weight maintenance. Your plan is individualized so that nutrition, lifestyle, and supplement strategies are matched to your unique needs.

How can nutrition therapy support perimenopause, menopause, and hormone balance?

Kathy offers a “Happy, Healthy Hormones” program that focuses specifically on menopause nutrition and hormone balance. If you’re dealing with sleep problems, unusual weight gain, hot flashes or night sweats, brain fog, mood changes, or increased GI symptoms, she works in three phases: first to support blood sugar, digestion, sleep, and stress resiliency; then to evaluate adrenal, thyroid, inflammation, immune, and environmental stress; and finally to build a long-term plan for brain health, energy, cardiovascular health, bones, and muscle. The goal is to help you move through perimenopause and menopause more comfortably using food-first, lifestyle-focused hormone support.

What can I expect when working with a nutritionist in Northern Colorado?

Your work with Kathy typically starts with a complimentary consultation (via Zoom or phone) to discuss your health history, current concerns, and goals. From there, she uses Functional Diet Analysis, lifestyle assessment, and (when appropriate) functional lab test interpretation to create a personalized nutrition therapy plan. You’ll receive practical guidance on real-food choices, meal structure, movement, stress resiliency, and targeted supplements, along with ongoing support over a 4- to 12-month care package to help you implement changes step by step.

Do I need to live in Fort Collins or Northern Colorado to work with To Your Health Nutrition?

No. Kathy is a women’s nutritionist based in Fort Collins, Colorado, but she works with clients throughout Northern Colorado and across the United States. Appointments are available via Zoom video or audio-only calls, so you can receive functional nutrition therapy and menopause nutrition support from wherever you live.

How long does it take to see results from functional nutrition therapy?

Many clients begin to notice improvements in energy, digestion, sleep, and overall well-being within one to three months, especially when they consistently follow their individualized nutrition and lifestyle plan. However, if you’ve had symptoms or chronic conditions for many years, it can take longer—often up to a year or more—to fully unwind old patterns and rebuild healthier ones. To support this process, Kathy offers care packages ranging from 4 to 12 months so that you have guidance and accountability over time.

Can my functional nutrition plan coordinate with my doctor and lab testing?

Yes. Kathy can review existing lab work from your healthcare providers and also help you order functional blood chemistry, saliva hormone, stool, and GI function tests when appropriate. She interprets these from a functional perspective—looking for optimal ranges and patterns, not just disease cutoffs—and uses the information to fine-tune your nutrition therapy plan. Her services are strictly non-diagnostic and are meant to complement, not replace, your medical care, and she’s happy to work alongside your other healthcare providers.
