About
Have you tried everything to lose weight - to no avail? Are you the heaviest you've ever been? The difference with my service is that in addition to my 25 years of weight loss expertise, nutritional degree, psychology degree, and medical background, you also get my partners, two board certified doctors. Additionally, my husband is a brilliant MD (and chief of staff) at a well known hospital and we have the benefit of his expertise as well. Together, we identify the underlying causes of your weight problem (which is more complex than just eating too much) These may include; hormonal deficiencies like thyroid imbalance, leptin resistance, insulin resistance, mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic insufficiency, set-point abnormalities and vitamin deficiencies. We have a wide-range of methods to treat these conditions, ultimately leading to permanent weight loss success. The fact is, diet and exercise is rarely successful for long-term weight loss if such hormonal and metabolic disturbances are left untreated. Hence, whoever you interview and ultimately choose to guide you should have mentioned how critical it is to ascertain whether you have any hormonal factors that lead to your weight gain/weight problem, rather than assume it's a matter of you're not having will-power to eat less. Please, Please be wary!! of a "nutritionist" or trainer who promises weight loss by simply following their "diet" (It's so much more complex than that!) Have you wrecked your metabolism with too much dieting or exercise? You never eat fast food, to the contrary, you are constantly depriving yourself and doing regular strenuous exercise, but you can’t seem to lose weight or keep it off. You starve yourself and work out and find you're maybe a whole quarter pound lighter! AND....as soon as you go back to your normal diet routine, the weight comes back. You swear you have no metabolism but your doctor says everything is normal. Your friends recommend yet another fat burning diet but nothing seems to work. Sound familiar? Well, we're here to correct the problem and guide you to sustainable and measurable weight loss success! ! After our first consult, I'll send you to Quest lab (Don't worry they accept every single insurance plan) to determine the physiologic basis of your weight gain/difficulty losing weight. The Dr's and I will go over your results along with your extensive medical history and customize a plan based on the safest yet most aggressive (fast) course of treatment for YOU so that you're losing the lbs fast.. It's the antithesis of a one size fits all plan ! Ultimately, the difference with coming to us is that we approach weight loss from every angle. What good is going to a weight loss expert who designs a plan for you without knowing who you are from the inside out? In addition to weight loss, we specialize in: Adrenal Fatigue Cancer Prevention Depression Digestive Problems Fatigue/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ Fibromyalgia Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis Disease Heart Disease Prevention Hypertension Hyperthyroidism Hypothyroidism Low Libido Lyme Disease Migraines PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) Perimenopause/Menopause Type 2 Diabetes Weight gain Every facet !!!!! I love embarking on this journey together as I've been through it and know how you feel every step of the way..I get the pain, self consciousness, self loathing, etc that being overweight/obese entails. I deeply care about your success and will not give up on you, even at times when you want to yourself. I love the intimacy of working toward this transformative life experience and celebrating the slim and healthy new you when we reach goal weight ! Let's get going!

I met Melissa just before Covid. I had googled her and read reviews about pulling up to her large and beautiful home and people being nervous to meet her. She was described as tough and no nonsense and that she sees through your bs and excuses. Well, she is and does but she's also one of the most compassionate, positive and inspiring women I've ever met. She explains what losing weight entails and takes you through a fitness plan that really sculpted me and got rid of my flabby belly. Melissa is so confident and matter-of-fact about you getting to goal weight, that you become 100% assured as well. I needed to lose 40 pounds and lost 43.5 in 2 months, 10 days and was able to enjoy what Melissa calls a "fun meal". No worries as her maintenance plan was and is such a pleasure as you are allowed to have several "fun meals" a week (yes pizza, pasta and burgers with buns!) followed by a few "clean protocol days" until you lose the 2 pounds you gained, and then you have several "normal" eating days at your given calorie/carb limit that she determines. My calorie limit was 1600 which was extremely satisfying and maintainable, especially as covid hit. She is like no one else and if weight loss and fitness is your end game, then reach out to Melissa, who's many cuts above the rest.

I have been working with Melissa for almost 2 months now. She has been nothing but inspiring and informative. I have lost over 20 lbs and couldn't be happier. I have about 25 more to go and feel that it is very achievable due to the help of Melissa.

I have learned a lot about myself so far. She had done tons of bloodwork to learn where I am off and since has helped improve them. Do reach out to your insurance to be sure everything is covered. I ended up owing just shy of $500 from the blood tests done to Quest Diagnostics.. which I didn't expect.

Besides that, Melissa has been very flexible in her meeting times and is pleasant to work with. She will not only educate you, but she will build up your confidence and believe in yourself!

My eating habits are completely different now. As I look back at what I ate 2 months ago, I wouldn't return to eating them.

Melissa is an incredible coach, remarkable nutritionist and savior who inspired me to lose
the remaining 50 pounds I had to lose. I was not
well and dealing with diabetes, hypertension and sleep apnea. Rather than feel sorry for me, it was quite the contrary. Melissa created a plan of action and was so positively convinced I would succeed that I began believing it too, and finally won this war! She is the real deal and I know because I went through 3 other nutritionists who couldn't hold a candle to Melissa and her talent.
