"When I began working with Val I had come to a pretty critical realization that I needed to make some lifestyle health changes. Not because I was overweight. In fact, I’ve always been fairly petite and slim, but because I was exhausted. Exhausted beyond the “full-time-working-mom-of-2-kids-and-2-dogs” kind of tired. I was drained everyday by 11 am and a zombie after evening workouts. I couldn’t even remember the last time I’d eaten a vegetable. The office candy dish was my midday pick-me-up. My eating was mindless and my body was paying the price. Period.

Val helped me learn that I had to approach eating with the same tenacity that I approached all the other important things in my life. She taught me not just what to eat, but why I was eating it and the impact to my body. Because, let’s face it, you can learn WHAT to eat from any diet plan or health website. Each day was not only met with encouragement, but enlightenment. 21 days later, I lost weight and nearly 6% body fat. But, even better, I was energized. Working with Val I was the best gift I could have given myself."
