Cookie -Cutter ? No. Cookies ? Yes. There is no one size fits-all solution when it comes to nutrition, you'll received a customized plan that is personal to your lifestyle and health background. An effective plan is a well-researched one that's built for the long-term. And when we team up, you'll get just that. No cookie-cutter plans here. But if you want a cookie, that's okay. I am all about moderation, not denial/restriction.
