Two years ago I had a wake-up call... I had a 99% lesion in my LAD coronary artery. After my…read morecardiologist opened my LAD and prescribed a host of meds I went to Justine of Alo Wellness to see if she had any suggestions to improve my health. I didn't consider my diet to be a factor... Bad genes I thought. Soon I learned otherwise, she showed me that 5-6 small meals that were low in carbs would deactivate my tendency to store excess carbs as fat. She worked out a menu for me and helped me get on track. I attribute her knowledge, encouragement and skill in counseling me as the reason I was able to lose 25 pounds in six weeks without difficulty. I'm simplifying things in this review because what she did and how she approached my health was the result of her training and experience which I value to the highest.

My experience with Lori can really only be described as truly transforming. I walked in the door…read moreexpecting to lose weight but not expecting to gain my life back. Actually, I wasn't really aware that I had lost my life. I was frustrated with some pounds that wouldn't budge. I had tried all the things. All the diets. I tried any fitness regimen that any blog, magazine, neighbor, friend or dog suggested to no avail. Add on to that, a year of pandemic-comfort food eating-binge drinking-soul searching-extra baggage carrying mania and by January 2021 I was ready for a change. While I was ready for a change, I was also dead scared any nutritionist would take away all my champagne and comfy carby carbs. One of my top favorite things about working with Lori is we took it slow and easy! We made little tiny baby steps that added up to little tiny baby changes. It got the ball rolling without feeling like I was sacrificing anything or missing out. The second thing I love about Lori is that she practices what she preaches. She works out, she eats clean, and she takes her own advice. I found that not only to be mesmerizing but inspiring. Anyone can be a teacher but a great teacher is also a great leader by example! So how I found my life that I didn't realize I had lost....Well through our sessions we talked about many other things besides food. Like my work, my husband, our home life, habits, patterns, emotions etc. Through this process of digging stuff up and sifting it out we found that the over eating and over drinking came from a deep dark place of unhappiness. Again, Lori didn't take things away but added things back in that made me happy. I had forgotten how much I love to paint. I had forgotten how to be happy sober. I had forgotten how to express myself under pressure to my boss, to my husband, to my family and to myself. As more happiness crept in, more unhappiness crept out. As the unhappiness left my need to eat and drink like a termite vacated. I'm still a work in progress but aren't we all right?! I will be forever grateful for my time with Lori and the insights and tools that she has given me!

They handed me what I can only imagine was the same Book my grandma used back in the '80s and told me to fill in what I ate. There wasn't any room. Get with the times, Lindora! Everyone uses apps now. They charge me $200 a month and I can come in and get shots every day. Well great. Please pump me full of painful shots where half the liquid squirts out after. And I swear to you the shots don't do anything! I didn't have one single speck of energy. And that's not even to mention the unpleasant people they have working at the clinic. There were two girls that I liked. I don't go back because I don't want to get stuck dealing with one of the other women. Of course there's no possible way to get out of the contract. Don't sign up for anything with them! I lost maybe 9 lb . And after that they put me on a plateau diet . Of course you're going to lose weight when all you get to eat during the day is a protein shake and an egg. The second you stop doing it you gain it all back.

Prior to meeting Jeanette Lucero, and becoming an 85/15 Lifestyle client, I had a history of what…read moreJeanette affectionately refers to as "yo-yo dieting". Every year, I would put on 10-20 extra pounds. Then, I would revert to my usual temporary solution by doing cardio and reducing the fat content in my diet. Sure, I would lose some weight, but I knew I wasn't achieving a level of fitness and I would always, eventually gain the weight back. Jeanette Lucero of 85/15 Lifestyle has changed all that. Jeanette and her company came highly recommended to me based on her history of success and so many satisfied clients. When I met her for the first time, I was so impressed with her passion and knowledge that I knew I had made the right decision to become a client. Jeanette really took the time to listen about my history and current lifestyle. She personally worked with me and conducted a grocery store tour and a meal prep session. It was incredible how much I learned from her in regards to nutrition and proper diet. Jeanette also designed a personalized meal plan and got me started on a fitness plan. Perhaps, the most special part of being a client of hers is that it doesn't end there. Jeanette is always available to me for questions, coaching and motivation. I am honored to be a client of 85/15 Lifestyle. I am committed to making this lifestyle change and with Jeanette's support I am assured of my success. Jeanette Lucero has an incredible level of knowledge, but it's her passion that makes her so special. In my lifetime, I have done business with thousands of companies, corporations and small businesses. I can honestly say that my experience with Jeannette Lucero and 85/15 Lifestyle has been one of the best decisions I have ever made and she has clearly exceeded my expectations!

More importantly, I have an amazing amount of energy and I can keep up with my young son. I wasn't hungry, didn't workout, and didn't even count calories or points. I even learned how to cook some amazingly simple and delicious dinners. As an ex-fitness professional I've seen a lot of gimmicks and fad diet plans. THIS IS NOT A GIMMICK! It's about real food and leaving the inflammatory foods like sugar, carbs, dairy, and gluten behind for 30 days and get back to eating organic meat, vegetables, fruit and healthy fats. I know it seems like a big challenge to change you eating habits for 30 days, but Alicia is a tremendous coach and motivator. She made it so easy to stay on track by giving you tips and tricks that set you up for success right from the beginning. She even uses a private Facebook group during your reset to help you get ideas and motivation from others who are on the same journey/struggle as you. I couldn't believe how much that group really helped. It's definitely changed the way I eat and I will be following the program for many years to come! Thanks so much Alicia!
