She always sends me home with a write up of what we discussed, recipes, and a fresh outlook on my health. My favorite thing about Mary is how she treats me. I have never felt pressured to eat my weight in kale or follow some nutrition plan I didn't feel good about. She asks questions about my preferences and likelihood of preparing foods so that it's a co-created plan. Her witty and spunky personality is so comforting, not to mention how sensitive she is to my "relationship with my body".

The supplements help with the cravings and I didn't believe it either, but being in ketosis also helps. My coach is amazing (Tara) and everyone is super supportive on the Facebook site. Only down size is cost. It isn't cheap but if you are super committed and you can reach your goal, totally worth it! I've lost 85 lbs in 9 months so far.

However, the staff are ridiculously uneducated. I think in Lake Stevens one can get away with spinning wives' tales. However, with a high school level or beyond knowledge of biology, any patron will know the "LipoMelt" information they are sharing is incorrect. One of the technicians actually said, "Well if you eat a cheese burger or pizza the fat will go right back to where it came from!" The other technician sounds like a chain-smoker and didn't understand any of the "science" behind what she was selling, either. There are healing benefits from red light therapy, but wasting your money here is just that...a waste.

She has an intuitive ability to strike the right balance between mental, physical and emotional health while helping to support daily eating habits. She is also non judgmental which helped me feel even more secure with her abilities. She has a wealth of knowledge and adds to this with her podcast that is chock full of very informative yet down to earth guests.

This is going to be tough as it's the first time I've done something like this - she has been encouraging and has went above and beyond to support me along the way. I've recommended my 65 year old dad to her. She's someone you can trust - I appreciate her holistic knowledge regarding health and wellness. She cares about her clients. Thank you Jeannie!

I have nothing but great things to say about Natalie!…read more I have bounced back and forth between binge eating and extreme dieting for most of my adult life. When I found Natalie, I had just come off a round of extreme dieting and was looking for a more balanced look at nutrition. I had heard of Intuitive Eating in the past but had sort of dismissed it because as I told Natalie on our first call: "Clearly, your intuition is telling me to eat different things than my intuition." I worked with Natalie for about 6 months and I can say for a fact that the person I was when I met her and the person I am now are two completely different people (in the best way). I'm still a work in progress and probably always will be, but I can say with absolute certainty that I'm a better version of myself than before I met Natalie. If you have been struggling with food, if you've never experienced a life where food didn't rule you in one way or another and are reading this, I highly encourage you to reach out to Natalie. She is the most non-judgmental of humans and you will immediately feel at ease in her (virtual) presence.

After some quick evaluation, Ashley pointed out that a ton of flaws in my diet. While it was all healthy to begin with, it was low on carbs and not nearly enough calories to sustain my workout load. Most people tend to think that an RD is to help you lose weight, but Crave Health helped me in a whole different way. The plan put together for me was with my heavy workout load in mind without being too disruptive. I was injury free for the next 4 months and got my best time in my last half-marathon. Recently, I've been going to lose fat without necessarily losing weight. Ashley got me a modified plan and kept tabs on my progress during our visits. I have lost 2% body fat (from 19 to 17% and on my way to reach 15% goal). I have not experienced the challenges from another reviewer in scheduling appts. I work late and Crave Health has a couple of days where they take appts until late afternoon. Scheduling has been easy over email. Check your insurance and you might find out a few visits are covered in your plan. I do recommend Crave health and I'm still a client.

My sennin-so shiatsu practitioner gave me a gift certificate to visit Heidi at Nourish and Revive…read moreawhile back. I had a phone screen and two onsite visits with Heidi when she was still at her Northgate location back in November 2017. Ancient Yelp post, I know. She has since then moved to her Lynnwood location. I underwent the screening and paid out of pocket for the lab work up. She was very thorough, personable, and passionate about her profession. Upon first meeting, you knew she really cared about your well-being and listened to your concerns. I ended up with a lot of information to digest, but in the end I did not pursue one of her tailored programs. What I did greatly appreciate though seven months later, there was no pressure and the information provided enough guidance for me to make tangible changes in my diet and lifestyle.

I've been working with Heidi for almost a year. I first saw her when I was struggling to recover…read morefrom a virus that had lingered for months -- it seemed like every time I started to feel better, I'd have a setback and feel tired and miserable again. I started feeling some improvements within a month and by four months was feeling so much better than I've felt in years. To be honest, the foods Heidi told me I needed to avoid.. I already knew I should avoid. But, what really helped me were the things she had me add to my diet, both whole foods and supplements. Many of us have tried dietary changes that center on what you can't have. If you're like me, you focus on what you can't have or can't do, and eventually your will power fades. It helped that Heidi handed me a list of foods I actually like to focus on eating, but really what made it doable is that Heidi is very kind and doesn't expect or want perfection from you. When I have a hectic week or am traveling and can't make ideal meal choices, I am able to rely on my supplement regime to fill in the gaps. These days my health and energy level are a little up and down (depending on how closely... or not... I follow Heidi's recommendations, so there's a NYE resolution somewhere in that). When I was following my plan pretty strictly, my primary care doctor was so thrilled with the improvement in my health that she said she wasn't going to ask questions about what I was doing because she loved the results. :)

This is the best investment I have made for myself and have and will continue to use her skills to help in establishing healthy eating habits. And the weightloss as a result isn't so bad either...averaging a pound a week.
