Interested in going low, (carb that is)? a healthy wholefood approach? Want to find what works for you long term?

Let me help coach you through that grey area between the desire to change your nutrition, and having no idea where to begin, to actually doing it, doing it right, and doing it in a way that's as easy as possible. Because hey, this is a lifestyle change and you want to eat stuff that not only agrees with you but is enjoyable, nutritious and doesn't cost a small fortune each week to buy... No hunting for exotic foods or elaborate cooking skills needed :)
