“I worked Jacqui for 4 months and she had a stubborn one on her hands! I think she was so sweet, patient, and honest with me but in the end, we made really good progress. I like her advice, her plan, the guides she created and provided and she was agile if we needed to pivot because something wasn’t working. I would recommend her program for anyone who needs clarity on nutrition, a push, and accountability.”

“Jacqueline is amazing! She is very knowledgeable in all areas of nutrition, including exercise. She helps create a plan of action using a simple framework that builds on what you’re already eating and doing. She recommends small, manageable changes that allow you to stick with it and see/feel a difference. Thanks Jacqueline! Looking forward to this journey of focusing on health and wellness.”

Jacqueline was amazing. I have struggle with weight lost and by the second session I had lost 6 pounds. She really truly knows her stuff and is super helpful and friendly and the best to work with.
I have been seeing Jacqueline for a few months to help me lose some weight after a PCOS diagnosis. I have seen a few nutritionists in my life, but Jacqueline is BY far the best one I have seen. She is caring and realistic, always listens to my concerns, and I have lost weight & inches off my body and I am so happy I found her.
I started to finally see results thanks to the very specific plan. She made sure to give me baby steps and big goals and that worked perfectly well for me.
I can’t recommend Jacqueline enough! She is super knowledgeable, encouraging, and kind. It’s obvious she keeps up with the growing data in the field of nutrition. It was really easy to talk through my eating habits with her and come up with a tailored plan to fit my schedule. Jacqui is extremely thorough and she never rushes through a session. It’s obvious she cares and loves what she does. Again, can’t recommend enough!
Got a good vibe from the first session, asks a lot of question and doesn't make any assumptions. It was my first time seeing a nutritionist so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I felt heard and very comfortable sharing what was going on with me. I have seen Jacqui twice now and I am very excited for my plan to lose weight and decrease inflammation in my body.
Excellent nutritionist!! Jacqui creates an environment where you can be honest and vulnerable. She really is your biggest fan and celebrated all the little wins with you, which has given me such great confidence, motivation, and had overall made me feel good about my process. She understands how challenging it can be to lose weight and feel confident amidst all the chaos and busy schedules in life, and works with you to create plans that are unique to you, your body, and your lifestyle. She has given me a completely new perspective and understanding of eating, nutrition, and what it means to live a healthy life. She does not create a diet to loose weight “fast”, but rather helps you shift ur current lifestyle and habits slightly to help you lose weight consistently and reach permanent goals. I now can assess my food in a much better and much healthier way, and have formed habits that will stay with me forever. After two months, I have lost a good amount of weight and fat, and now feel so much more confident. I can take all of the things I have learned from Jacqui to continue on my journey.
Great experience, very caring and encouraging. I had to get my blood sugars down, my fasting was starting to go up with each yearly physical. With Jacqui's recommendations I lost 15 lbs and my A1C is now in the normal range.
Jacqui is amazing!! She is very knowledgeable in her field of nutrition. She is a great listener and gives encouraging advice.
I have been working with Jacqueline on and off for a few years and there’s a reason I keep coming back. To work with someone who genuinely cares about your well-being is hard to find these days. Her approach to food goes beyond throwing you on a ‘diet’. She sees you as an individual and customizes your plan based on you, not some cookie cutter diet. She has taught me ‘how’ to eat, shifted my mindset and eased my anxieties surrounding balancing a healthy lifestyle while maintaining the fun of life! No foods are off limits with Jacqueline, she wants you to enjoy your life and incorporate your favorite foods in a smart way. Going out to eat with friends is no longer a struggle. Through Jacqueline’s coaching, I have learned the right balance for me. Thank you for your support Jacquline!
Working with Jacqueline was an outstanding experience! Being in the medical field myself- I am extremely selective in choosing practitioners. Jacqueline is safe, intelligent, caring and passionate about nutrition! She supports her clients throughout their entire journey. Jacqueline works effortlessly beside her clients to assist in achieving their goal of optimal health. Jacqueline is the only Registered Dietitian I recommend to my family, friends and patients! Stacey Beggans, R.N.
I really enjoyed working with Jacque, but more importantly I saw results! As a busy working mom, I don’t have time for complicated meals. Jacque gets it. She made it easy to plan my diet. I’ve lost weight and feel great. She also taught me how to make better food choices that have become part of my lifestyle. No more yo-yoing and fad diets. Thank you Jacque!
Jacqui is incredibly kind and compassionate. I knew she was there for me every step of the way. Never judging but always there to encourage and support me. In addition to her support, Jacqui provides an immense amount of education and knowledge surrounding her program. Everything she does is strategic and planned to help you reach your specific goals.
Starting my journey with Jacqui was the complete opposite of any other diet. I altered my relationship with food and now use it as fuel. I have lost this weight and gained confidence and continue using the skills Jacqui has given me. She is one of the biggest supporters as well and makes you feel comfortable with sharing every part of your journey especially with how personal this type of journey is. To this day I constantly use her tips and tricks to improve my eating habits. I no longer have an unhealthy relationship with food and am able to incorporate this healthier lifestyle into my work, social and day to day life. I no longer yo-yo diet and now eat and am able to keep up my healthy lifestyle while still enjoying my favorite foods. Biggest lesson: You don’t have to change your entire life to lose weight and be happy!
Jacqui is awesome! I was part of her group coaching program earlier this year and I exceeded my goal of losing 10 pounds and actually lost 12! Jacqui is always reachable and in her coaching sessions she gives you real time practical advice for changes you can implement right away. She provides information on lasting habit changes and no foods are off limits! I finished her program 5 months ago and have kept the weight off and then enjoying my new found energy and clothes that fit better! I would recommend Jacqui and her programs to anyone!
I LOVE the one-on-one sessions you get with her. She has once a week a session to follow up with any concerns you may have with anything. I can’t believe how amazingly fast she responds back to her clients. She has helped me with my health but also my emotional levels as well. She is very encouraging and never gives up on you! She is our number 1 Supporter and our distance "Mom"... she knows what and how to help each and everyone. Her plans are different from any other program I have tried. She focuses on YOU instead of the PROGRAM managing you! She listens to YOUR needs instead of what the program is telling you.This is very important to me. I love how every single person is different and every program for that person matches their needs.
I was apart of Jacqueline’s 90 day Weight loss program . I spent June, July and August with her. This was after having a baby in March. I've always struggled with my weight since college, and continued to struggle throughout my entire twenties. I tried every diet and program and had some results but then gained everything plus some back. I even had the lap band surgery back in 2016 which was super successful for me at the time but one day it slipped and the next day I was getting surgery to have it removed. I gained just about 100 pounds back. After I had my baby in March I was right back up to 250 pounds. I personally wasn't sure at first if I should even reach out to Jacqui because I had tried everything so who else could help me? I had been following her socials for quite some time and one day something told me to fill out an inquiry form for her program. That was the best decision I have ever made. I stuck with her for 3 months, I took in all the information she had and ran with it. I've been on my own for these last 3 months and I continue to lose weight. I lost about 21 pounds just in the 3 months on her program. If you think there's no hope because you tried everything, I’m telling you, you're wrong. Jacqui is by far the correct person to work with and teach you how to have a healthy relationship with food. It's been about 7.5 months since I had my baby and I'm down a little over 50 pounds! I had many set backs, a lot of cravings, and some not so great days, but every time I go back to the basics and I also learned to not sweat the "bad days". Her program works if you work the program. If you are skeptical about starting or having a rough time staying on track, utilize all the resource she gives! This program has done everything and more for me! Thank you, Jacqui,!
I was a 49-year-old pre-diabetic male with high cholesterol. I'm proud to say that I'm no longer in a high-risk category for either condition. The best part of it is Jacqueline showed me how easy this was to achieve with a few simple tweaks to my diet & lifestyle. I always thought it would take a completely disruptive overhaul to achieve fitness. Jacqueline's approach to healthy living has an understanding that we're all humans and not robots. She discounts for this with her approach and the results are eye-popping. Who knew it was so easy?!?! I have more energy, get better sleep, stopped snoring and the added discipline around my diet has spilled over into other aspects of my life which is a great added benefit!
Jacqueline is a professional at her best. She’s extremely knowledgeable and takes her time to get to know each clients individual needs. She listens carefully and provides you with all the love and support you need on your personal journey. She’s passionate about her work and puts an incredible amount of detail and planning into her programs. It’s one of the best programs I’ve ever joined. The best part is that it works. I would highly recommend Jacqueline. You won’t be disappointed. The coaching and having a place to hold yourself accountable really helps. Jacqueline approaches her programs with love, compassion, kindness and empathy. She knows what she’s doing and will make sure she provides you with the best support that will help you with your individual needs. I love Jacqueline and wouldn’t think of working with anyone else.
