Lyndhurst Lady Who Lost 10 Stone Without Surgery Or Medication Launches An App To Help Others Kate Donohoe, a Lyndhurst resident who has successfully lost 10-stone in weight without any GLP1’s or weight loss surgery, has recently launched a new business with a mission: to help others lose weight and keep it o for good. Her new venture, Boom Weight Loss and Fitness, is a coaching app and support system designed to tackle one of the biggest challenges in health and tness: long-term habit change. “Boom is for people who’ve tried everything and know the real challenge isn’t just losing weight - it’s maintaining it,” says Kate. “There’s no shortage of diets or advice out there, but what’s missing is the support to build sustainable habits and a new way of living.” Kate’s personal journey is at the heart of Boom. A er transforming her own health, she retrained in nutrition coaching, personal training, and behaviour change, as well as specialising in working with clients facing bigger health challenges, from diabetes and cardiovascular disease to bromyalgia and obesity. Boom o ers a exible coaching experience through its app, combining support, personalised habit tracking, tness and nutrition guidance and motivational support. Users can access self-paced modules or opt for 1:1 Coaching. ey can join live weekly coaching sessions and receive tailored advice directly from Kate based on their goals and lifestyle. Prices for the selfguided ‘Core Membership’ start from as little as £12.50 on the annual plan. Boom focuses on support from Kate and the Boom Community, alongside small, achievable step changes, like making food swaps, walking the dog a bit further, taking the stairs, which can Kate in 2004 Kate in 2025 add up to lasting results. e app also helps users understand the real demands of weight maintenance, which, according to NHS guidelines, can require up to 90 minutes of moderate activity daily for those who were previously obese. “Boom isn’t about overhauling your life overnight,” Kate explains. “It’s about building confidence, consistency, and a lifestyle that works for you. Boom offers a compassionate, motivational and practical approach to guide people every step of the way.” Kate’s passion for helping others comes from her own journey, which has taught her that weight loss is a re-learning process, and hopes her story will inspire others in the New Forest and far beyond to take the rst step toward lasting change. e App launched in September and is available now.
