About Fight the Weight

Not a diet.

An education.

Built by someone who has lived this — not just studied it.

Fight the Weight was built on one belief: you cannot sustain results you do not understand. I am Delmarie van Zyl — certified fat loss coach, founder of FTW, and someone who has spent years figuring out why the standard advice was not working for my own body. I have PCOS. I have posible Lipoedema. I am on Tirzepatide. I run four businesses. I know exactly what it feels like to do everything right and still not get the results you should — because nobody told you about the hormones, the insulin, the sleep, the cortisol. Every FTW blueprint is built around YOUR body — your hormones, your medical conditions, your food, your life. Not a template. Not a calculator result. Yours. Real Experience. Real Education. Real Results.

 

Real Experience

Built by someone who has walked the journey — Posible Lipoedema, PCOS, Tirzepatide, and all.

Real Education

Every client understands why their plan works — not just what to eat and when.

Medical-Aware

PCOS, insulin resistance, Lipoedema, thyroid, GLP-1 medication — your plan accounts for your body.

100% Personalised

Your food. Your lifestyle. Your targets. No two blueprints are ever the same.

NEW — Group Coaching Programme

FTW 13-Week Sustainable
Body Transformation Programme

Cohort 1 · Starting 7 September 2026 · Only 20 spots

This is not a challenge. This is not a competition.

This is a structured, education-first group coaching programme designed to teach you how your body actually works — and then coach you through applying that knowledge for 13 weeks.

The goal is not a 13-week result. The goal is a permanent shift in how you think about and manage your body.
