I started out as a pediatric dietitian helping parents with their kids with feeding disorders, picky eaters, etc, with great success. Then I started seeing adults for weight loss and soon saw the disappointment in that the conventional weight loss advice of eating less and burning more does not work for most women struggling with weight loss. It's actually causing more harm, leading to nutrient deficiencies, binge eating, food cravings, gut issues, food sensitivities, hormonal imbalance, auto-immune diseases, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and low confidence.
