I have always yo-yo dieted and been restrictive with my eating habits, after finally realizing that…read morewhat I was doing wasn't working for my body or goals decided to meet with a nutritionist. I started working with Eleana with the goal of losing weight and becoming healthier as I go through fertility treatments. From the beginning, Eleana was very honest and straightforward with me, the meal plan that she gave me was easy to follow and provided a lot of options. I actually eat so much more now than I did before and the weight has slowly and steadily been coming off. I don't even feel like I am on a diet, I have lost over 15 lbs and feel so much stronger in my workouts and overall feel so much healthier. I would definitely recommend Eleana!

I was initially hesitant to meet with Shana because I had a fear of change. I was excited to see…read morewhat she had to offer, but I was also afraid of change and not being in control of my food. I remember warning her during my first appointment that I was stubborn just so that she wouldn't expect much of me. Even though I needed to improve my eating habits, I didn't want Shana to come in and create a storm in my life. I did not want anyone dictating what I could and could not do; what I could or could not eat. After my initial consultation, I felt like I was still on two feet. I felt even more grounded than before. She gave me the information and tools to reach my goals, but I still always feel I have control over my choices. Rather than create the havoc I feared before meeting with her, she made it all simpler. She is positive and encouraging and that gives me confidence and allows me to make better choices for myself in reaching my goals. She got me in control of my decisions and I am now proud of the choices I make. I like that Shana doesn't just deal with food; she helped me improve my fitness and workouts, too. We go over what I could have done better and how I will succeed in the future. I love that Shana doesn't judge. I feel completely comfortable explaining what I have done, how I feel and what I plan to do. She's easy to talk to and very encouraging. She helps plan out my food and fitness goals. And she's really sincere about it all. She goes out of her way to accommodate your schedule, answer questions after-hours and motivate between sessions. I think I most enjoyed learning about myself during this process. I know now what I have to eat during one day, what makes a healthy meal and what foods to avoid that make me feel physically ill and also emotionally guilty. I now expect more from myself, and that makes me feel like a better, grown person. I like that when I'm feeling off track, meeting with Shana immediately inspires me to stay focused. She shows me what needs to happen to reach my goals. I also enjoy her social media profile. She motivates me during the week even when I'm busy with work and personal stresses. Seeing her other clients' responses shows me there are many others like me going through similar issues. I would definitely recommend Shana to anyone looking to improve their personal health. I give Shana credit for my nutritional improvements, my increased fitness expectations and my overall happiness. I may make my own choices, but she's a huge influence. She's changed my life and how I see myself and my potential, definitely for the better. Thank you, Shana!

I wasn't entirely sure what I had gotten myself into. I mean a weight loss type group? Really? Stop…read morethere, this is NOT like any other nutrition/diet/healthy eating, etc out there. Lauren's group and this step by step process is not about diet or weight loss, so forget those expectations. This group/process is all about learning to live side by side with food without acrimony. This class/process is amazing and will really make you challenge your ideas about food, nutrition, exercise and yourself. Is it hard? Sometimes. Will you cry? Sometimes. Will you feel supported? Always. Are you expected to know it all on day one? Not a chance. Lauren is kind, intelligent, understanding, informative and definitely your best coach. The others in the group back her up and bring other viewpoints and experiences to the table. I'm sorry that tomorrow is my last group call. Don't just think about doing this, do it! It will be the best gift you've ever given yourself.

I have measured my food, my body, my weight and my self worth for YEARS. Then I started working with Lauren and my life changed. I really committed to the process she was taking me through. At times it was hard. I cried. I was anxious. I didn't know how to feel okay with myself. But week after week Lauren is there with a smile and encouragement and she helped me love myself (and food) again. Thank you Lauren!
