Welcome to Pliant Nutrition where I believe that optimal health, vibrant energy and elevated performance are within everyone's reach.
I also understand how confusing and complicated the world of nutrition has become – or rather made to appear.

Hi, I’m Elsie, a qualified nutritionist and I’m here to provide you with expert, personalised guidance, support, and the tools you need to transform your health and cultivate a nourishing relationship with food. Pliant Nutrition is not about rigid rules or restrictive diets, but about flexible, adaptable, and scientifically-backed strategies that empower you to thrive. The name "Pliant" reflects my commitment to providing highly personalised plans that can bend and adapt to your individual needs, lifestyle, and evolving goals, rather than forcing you into a one-size-fits-all approach.
I will take the time to listen to your story – your health history, lifestyle demands, dietary preferences, and specific aspirations. This will allow us to co-create a practical, sustainable, and effective nutrition strategy that fits seamlessly into your life.

Pliant Nutrition is based in Launceston, Tasmania. However, I’m able to provide personalised guidance to clients across Australia.

Testimonials…

Lisa - lost 11kg

“I am so grateful to have found Elsie! From the start, she has demonstrated a deep knowledge and a genuine passion for helping me reach my nutrition goals. Her advice is always practical, with quick and easy recipes that are not only delicious but also packed with nutrition. She knows how to make healthy eating enjoyable and simple to integrate into daily life.

What I really appreciate is how supportive she is throughout the entire process. She checks in with me weekly to track my progress; but is always available sooner if I need extra help or have concerns. Elsie has also been amazing at helping me navigate tricky events, like social gatherings or meals out, and preparing me in advance with strategies to stay on track without feeling deprived.

The biggest lesson I've learned from her is that perfection isn’t the goal—it's about balance. If I eat something I ‘shouldn’t’ or go a little overboard, she reassures me that all is not lost. Her advice is simple: just get back on track as soon as possible, enjoy your food, and keep moving forward. That mindset has been a game-changer for me.

If you're looking for a knowledgeable, supportive, and practical nutritionist, I highly recommend Elsie. She truly goes above and beyond!.”

Jed - lost 12kg

“I’ve never been able to stick to any type of meal plan until I started my plan with Elsie.

She has been extremely supportive from the start with making sure that foods that I do enjoy fit into the plan whilst still providing nutritional value.

While she was halfway across the world, Elsie checked in weekly for progress report, meal reviews and just a general check in. I had a lot of questions all the time and they were always answered quickly!

The meal plans were super easy to follow and had cooking instructions which made it even easier.

I’ve learned a lot about nutrition and tracking my macros which has helped me a lot to make better choices when choosing food.

I highly recommend Elsie and will be continuing to use Pliant Nutrition services for the future.”
