Full refund within seven days of purchase, if your program has not started.

Your starting assessment

Before we meet, you complete a health-history form covering medications, diet history, food preferences, family cardiometabolic history and menstrual health where relevant.

Your appointment includes body-composition testing with bioimpedance, and a complimentary indirect-calorimetry test to measure your resting energy expenditure. Ultrasound is also recommended for women below 35% body fat and men below 30%.

Your personal plan

We spend about an hour building the approach together. I then write your nutrition and training program personally, and send it on a Friday, within five business days of your assessment.

Your first week is for settling in, learning the app and getting meal preparation organised. An additional 20 to 30 minute onboarding call is included.

Direct support from me

  • Weekly progress reports, personally reviewed by me.
  • Direct WhatsApp access, with replies within 24 business hours.
  • One meal-plan adjustment included.
  • New training blocks every four weeks, or every six to eight weeks for experienced trainees.

Your final review

An end-of-program reassessment to review your progress side by side with your baseline, and to decide what comes next.

Individual results vary. These are the clients who agreed to have their photographs published, out of the 2,000+ I have coached. Most prefer to keep theirs private.

For people using GLP-1 medication

Nutrition and strength support during GLP-1 treatment.

A separate program on the same base as Weight Well, with more adjustment because your weight is changing faster. For Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro or Zepbound. Twelve weeks in person, or fourteen online. I build the plan around your treatment, your appetite and your strength, and it complements the care of your prescribing clinician. It never replaces it.

  • In person: four bioimpedance assessments (initial, one month, two months, final) and indirect calorimetry
  • Monthly lean-mass check-ins, so we can see whether the weight coming off is fat, and adjust if muscle is going with it
  • Online: up to two meal-plan adjustments as your weight changes, instead of one
  • A strength protocol to protect muscle during the cut
  • Adjustments around changes in appetite and energy; medication and side-effect questions stay with your prescribing clinician
  • Weekly reports reviewed by me, direct WhatsApp, replies within 24 business hours

Bioimpedance + Written Review

$100 CAD + GST

A bioimpedance reading with a written review from me: a focused snapshot of lean mass, fat mass and hydration.

Book Assessment →

Same coaching depth.
Different delivery.

Online programs run 14 weeks instead of 12, and photographs and measurements take the place of in-person testing: standardized progress photos and a tape-measure protocol, reviewed by me. You get the direction of change rather than a precise fat and muscle number, so the extra two weeks give the trend time to show.

The plan I write, the weekly reviews and the WhatsApp support are the same in both. The difference is whether you are measured in my office or at home.

About 70% of my clients train in person in Port Coquitlam. Online programs run across Canada, the US, Brazil and Europe.

From assessment to program in five business days.

Free 20-minute call

We talk through your situation and whether a program is a good fit.

Health history and assessment

Medications, diet history, food preferences and training experience, then bioimpedance and calorimetry in person, or photos and measurements online.

Your program, on a Friday

Nutrition and training, written by me, on your client platform within five business days of your assessment.

Coaching from me

Weekly reports I review myself, WhatsApp replies within 24 business hours, and a new training block every four weeks.

Questions people ask at this exact point.

How fast will I see results?

Most clients notice the first changes in energy and recovery within the first weeks; body-composition changes show up in the measurements as the program goes on. The pace depends on your starting point and how consistent you are.

I'm on Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro. Do you work with that?

Yes. There is a dedicated GLP-1 program. Weight tends to come off quickly on these medications, and muscle and habits can go with it, so I set protein, strength training and monthly lean-mass check-ins around your treatment, and I adjust the plan as your appetite and energy change. Questions about the medication itself or its side effects belong with your prescribing clinician. I work alongside their plan, never instead of it.

What's the difference between online and in person?

Online runs 14 weeks instead of 12. Photographs and body measurements take the place of bioimpedance, ultrasound and calorimetry, and I review them myself, so you get the direction of change rather than a precise fat or muscle number. The plan I write, the weekly reviews, the meal plans and the WhatsApp support are the same in both.

I don't live in Vancouver. Does that matter?

No. About 70% of my clients train in person in Port Coquitlam, and the other 30% work with me online from across Canada, the US, Brazil and Europe. Online you get the same plan I write, the same weekly reviews and the same WhatsApp support; photographs and measurements take the place of in-person testing.

What's the refund policy?

Full refund within seven days of purchase, as long as your program has not started. After that the purchase is committed, because the assessment and the program preparation happen before delivery, and every plan is written for you. The one exception is a documented medical reason, which I honour with a pro-rata refund at any point in the program.

Can I just buy the nutrition plan without coaching?

Not currently. The plan is a deliverable; the coaching is the value. Static PDFs don’t change behaviour.

What languages do you offer?

English and Portuguese, both natively.

Still unsure whether any program fits? That is what the free 20-minute call is for, and "none of them, right now" is an answer I give when it is true.

Want to talk before choosing?

Book a free 20-minute call with me. We can talk through your goal, your routine and whether a program fits. If it does not, I will say so.
