Got 3 minutes? Here’s how I can help.

I lost 90 pounds—an entire fourth-grader!—on the keto diet, and post recipes, meal prep, and fitness tips to help you do it, too. Since losing the weight, I've become an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, which is a fancy way of saying I now can help you tailor keto -- or any eating program -- to your bio-individual needs. Because of keto, my entire relationship with food, my body, and my perception of my role as a woman has changed big time. Got 3 minutes? Because I'll bet you're much like me.
