Nutrition Pros

Starting a new nutrition plan isn’t always easy, but it’s worth the effort. Maddie Duncan is a working college student in her 20’s. She has tremendously improved her consistency with tracking and has definitely hit her groove. The difference between pictures is 12lbs, 7% body fat, and 8 total inches. Amazing work!! Keep it up!!

How about this transformation! My sister Eve Meehan has been tracking her macros for the first time ever! As a former D1 collegiate athlete, she went from having a thriving metabolism to sitting at a desk. Things started to change after college, especially after having a baby when she tipped the scale at 190 (before pictures). Like all of my Nutrition Pros clients, we did some priming before we made any sort of cut to her calories. She had to eat at her maintenance level (2400 calories) for MONTHS to reset her internal health. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP THAT MOST PEOPLE OVERLOOK. She responded so well to the increase in food that we didn’t have to make a cut for quite some time. Two changes to her macros and a few months later she’s down to 168lb! She also gets to enjoy an untracked meal 1-2 times per week and continues to see progress! I’m super proud of her dedication, compliance, and open mind... even we she was eating TONS of carbs after dinner so she could hit her numbers! It’s much easier when you do things the right way!

This transformation is nothing less than IMPRESSIVE! 💪🏽 . Kylie dropped 31lbs and almost 14% bodyfat after having her sweet baby boy. . She can absolutely vouch for the fact that postpartum weight can be lost even when life is crazy. All it takes is prioritizing yourself and allowing the process to happen in time. She even became a homeowner somewhere along this journey too. So 2 BIG life events didn’t stop her! 👏🏽 . Was she perfect.... nope. But on average, her consistency was were it needed to be for her to thrive. She tracked her food for the majority of her journey, but the most important part is that she became a solid intuitive eater that listened to her body and knew what her body required to continue getting results.

Postpartum weight is something we mothers shouldn’t have to put up with. When you consider everything our bodies go through in the 10 (yes 10) months of being pregnant, delivery, and the fourth trimester, it isn’t fair that we continue to deal with extra weight for months and sometimes years following. “Exercise” they say. “Eat healthy” they say. It sounds so simple but it is far from easy. This clients postpartum transformation is incredible. She’s down over 34lbs, 19% body fat, and 24 inches! She has incorporated exercise as well as tracking her food intake. She still eats the “treat” foods she enjoys, but eats nutritionally dense whole foods the majority of the time. Great work!!

This is how big you smile when you lose 37lbs, 24 1/2 inches, and 20% bodyfat.

Wanna see what 1000 EXTRA calories added to your diet looks like? Meet Amy! The pictures on top are from June. She’s is an avid crossfitter and runner. She was consuming somewhere in the 1400 calorie range. Not often am I able to make such a tremendous change to macros at an initial visit, but with her activity more food was imperative. So, I bumped her up to 2400+ calories. She immediately responded to the increase by dropping over 2% bodyfat in 2 weeks. SHE WAS STARVING!! Fast forward to the bottom photos and she’s down 10.5% body fat and 19lbs. LOOK AT HER BACK!!! 😍 She is still eating a ton of food. Her total calories have barely dropped under 2000! Her compliance has been stellar the entire time. You can definitely tell she’s putting in work! Awesome job Amy!

Anyone who comes into my office wanting to lose weight always has a timeframe in mind. The goal is always to lose the most weight in the shortest amount of time. Well, this rarely aligns with my methodology. My plan for each of my clients is to focus on change for 1 year. That’s 365 days out of your life. Why 1 year? One word... HABIT. Habits are what we fall back on in times of structure and in moments that are uncontrolled. If you focus 365 days on creating new habits, you will not see weight come back. If you practice new habits for 365 days, you will have a completely different fall back plan when times get rough. That new fall back plan separates food from the real problem at hand and now food isn’t utilized for comfort. Josh dedicated 1 year to changing his health and the result was 93lbs lost and a completely different set of daily habits. Congratulations Josh! Your hard work and consistency has definitely paid off!

What an incredible transformation! ✨ The difference between these photos is 20lbs and 10% body fat. He even looks younger in his after photos! 🙌🏼 It is truly amazing what 100% compliance to a program can do. Fantastic work! 👏🏼

Health & fitness goals come in many shapes and sizes; My client Joshua came to me with the goal of adding lean muscle so we got to work! 💪🏼 So far, Joshua has gained 14lbs, dropped his body fat from 17.4% to currently 13%, and has increased his lean muscle mass from 155lbs to 177lbs. All while eating 3,500+ calories! And we won’t even talk about the SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE in his strength! Way to go, Joshua! 👏🏼

This is what hard work and dedication looks like! Nicole has hit her 100lb weight loss goal just after arriving home from vacation. She is down a total of 39.5 inches, and is the happiest I have ever seen her! Congratulations, Nicole! I am so proud of all of your hard work; you truly are an inspiration!

Harold has achieved his weight loss goal of 100lbs and even decided to keep going by losing an additional 14lbs. He has transformed his life after beating cancer TWICE. Because he learned how to balance his favorite foods in with nutrient dense options he never had to give up his Saturday night pizza! Great work Harold!

5 YEARS LATER... I’ve seen this lovely lady on both ends of the spectrum- wanting to lose fat and now trying to gain lean mass. She is the perfect example of the “fixing your metabolism” that I’m ALWAYS talking about. She slowly taught her body how to accept more food. Now her tiny frame gets to eat TONS of food. Here’s her story: “I’m just gonna dive right in here... if now isn’t one of the most important times to get your health right, I don’t know what is. There is no quick fix, it is a lifestyle!⁣ (1st pic, today 4/2020. 110lbs. 2nd pic June/2015. 137lbs. 3rd pic figure comp Nov/2014 with before pic of Nov/2011 both 110 lbs.)⁣
