My first hands on wellness workshop with Elaine was awesome! I cannot believe how much ground we covered and I already feel more accomplished in the kitchen and moving into a healthy lifestyle. l am going to make a chicken today -- and visit the local Middle Eastern market to get inexpensive flours for my gluten free diet.
In just a few hours, I learned so much about:
• making food more flavorful  • great shortcuts that I am already using  • measuring dry ingredients with my hand -- so that I can be one of those cooks who nonchalantly tosses ingredients into the pot  • flavor profiles  • best places to buy organic food at the lowest price  • nutritional needs  • strategies for weight loss  
I cannot wait until our next lesson!
Elaine is the best! Oh -- and she is loads of fun to boot!"

Joining the good2eat4U program with Elaine has changed the way I think and feel about food and the effects it has on me.
Since starting the program with Elaine 4 months ago, I have lost 25 lbs and gained so much understanding and knowledge about food and how my body reacts to it. Elaine educated me on foods that are good for my body and gives me the education along with it so whenever I want to eat something I am conscious of how my body will react to it and how good it is for me.
I never feel deprived of any foods. I feel energized and more confident and walk more proudly because I feel so much better.
Elaine is so encouraging and helpful and my lifestyle has improved tremendously since starting this diet and way of life with Elaine. I look forward to keep excelling with the help of Elaine and feeling better every single day.
I have tried other diets but was never able to stick to it   In the past when I cheated it would take me months before I get back into diet mode but with Elaine it never feels like I’m doing something wrong by eating anything. Elaine also has amazing recipes which includes all the foods and drinks I love. I am so grateful I met her.
Elaine has changed my life so far and it only keeps getting better. Every visit we go through my food intake, she adds things I may like and enjoy and is very encouraging. With Elaine it’s not really dieting it’s a way of life!!!! Looking forward to posting my new update in a few months from now.


Update: I have lost 45 lbs and I continue to feel better and better. Her text messages and our face to face time have kept me on track, although I'm 3,000 miles away.

1. How long does the program last?

Within three months you will have a clear understanding of how your body reacts to macro-nutrients (protein, green and yellow vegetables, grain and fruit) at different times of the day. 

For example: For breakfast or fruit and grain? Slump of energy at 4;00 pm? Is a protein rich lunch the answer or a cup of coffee? You will know what works best for your life's demands for energy?  

2. Do you recommend products?

I am not affiliated with any brands other than my Herblends, but I do help sift through food brands that I am familiar with or help you understand choices from the labels. I also help with restaurant menus.

3. I don't cook but I want to learn how to cook healthy, how can you help?

I offer live-stream cooking lessons, we cook the same dishes together. I then send you the recipes in a cookbook with notes from class so that we don't get bogged down with note taking. Classes cover cooking technique and nutritional information in a fun atmosphere that has many Chef Tips.

4. Do you offer meal prep classes?

Yes, I offer a 2 part meal prep class, we go through what you have time to execute and what your skill level is, then we organize what you should have on hand and what you need to buy fresh or frozen. We follow through a week or two later and smooth out any rough spots.

5. What if I love food that is bad for me and hate healthy food? 

When you take a look at how your body reacts to food, you will want to be on the wrong track,.If you have pain from inflammation, or you aren't able to get a good amount of sleep.  We will find the foods that make you feel really great and that pleasure will over-rule any misconceptions or resistance that you may have about eating healthy.

6. Can you help with health issues?

Yes. Let's talk, I can help you help yourself.
