    I completed Lindsay's 6 week program and wow! I can truly say that it was a life changing…read moreexperience!! In the past 4 years, I had gained 40+ lbs due to some special medicine I was taking (and probably some overeating of hamburgers too haha). I tried EVERYTHING to get rid of it. Juice cleanses, special diets, pills, multiple private trainers, you name it and I had done it. Unfortunately, nothing stuck. Knowing my wedding was just around the corner, I had to do something to get the weight off for good. I wanted to feel confident on my wedding day! I found Lindsay through a quick yelp search and was intrigued. Let's get this straight. This is not a special fad diet or some strict eating plan, its a way of life! Lindsay gives you the tools, skills, and mindset to make a long lasting change in your lifestyle. During the course of the 6 weeks, I lost 8+ lbs and now (more than 3 months later) I'm still continuing to lose weight by following what she taught me. I plan to be at my goal weight in the next 3 months (in time for my wedding!) And most importantly, I feel fantastic!!!!! I feel like a whole new person. Yes, it's a monetary investment but it was worth every penny :) do it!!!

    I started working with Lindsay in August and she has been great! I've been a yo-yo dieter for as…read morelong as I can remember and I never really learned about proper nutrition. I was always looking for that quick/easy way to lose weight and while I have been successful in the past, it always comes back. With Lindsay's program, I feel confident that this is something I can keep up with long term and I have already seen amazing results. Not only do I notice a physical change, but mentally I feel so much better as well. I am sleeping better and have more energy. As other reviewers have said, this is not a strict or fad diet but a different way of life. I eat out a lot and starting this program I was worried I wasn't going to be able to do that. However, Lindsay taught me some tips and tricks so that I can still eat out, drink and socialize but still eat healthy and it can still taste good. I can't wait to see what happens in the next few months!

    I cannot speak highly enough of Elliot, Kevin, Ari and the entire staff at TFN. I joined the studio…read morea few months ago and have been impressed by several points: 1) The space: At first, I was taken aback that this is not a full gym, but rather a modestly sized studio. What it lacks in comparison to a larger gym, it makes up for both in focus (e.g, squats, bench press, deadlifts) and expertise (e.g., squat shoes, professional grade equipment). 2) The atmosphere: Upon arrival at the studio, I am reminded of the TV show "Cheers", where one is greeted with warm hello's and welcomes. Everybody knows your name. Also noteworthy - the other guests at the studio are of all ages and capabilities. I recall a moment where everyone stopped their own routines to cheer on a 60 year old woman as she hit her personal best in a deadlift. I had a cheering section as I struggled with a push-up challenge. It is a warm, inclusive and supportive environment. 3) The expertise: Kevin and the team have a methodical, evidence based approach to building strength and technique. He, along with Elliot, Erik and others, have helped me see the finer points of how to lift safely. Rather than piling on the plates, they make me earn the weight with good technique. We progressed through body weight and kettle bells, onto dumbbells and then Olympic bars, only advancing once I demonstrated proficiency with the technique. In addition, I engaged Ari to help me reflect on my nutrition goals and how to integrate my diet with my weight lifting. All of the staff are available online, which helps when I'm traveling. I would encourage anyone to visit TFN and take a few sessions. They effectively blend professionalism, expertise, and warmth; I am excited about my progress in a short period of time and hope you will experience the same.

    Very friendly and welcoming place. I've worked with Mike for a few weeks now and he has taught me a…read moreton! Mike really knows his stuff and has been able to tailor programming to my needs very well. No cookie cutter programming here! I initially sought out training at TFN because I was having some pain with lifting, and Mike tweaked my technique and gave me lots of helpful cues that helped me to lift pain free so I can keep getting stronger. Highly recommend for any experience level!

    Unfortunately, her only recommendation is to read what's on her website which is material from…read moreother experts, do lots of cardio, and to keep cutting calories if your weight isn't dropping. She doesn't think weight training or macros have anything to help with weight loss and the only key was to do cardio and cut calories. I was even told to go down to 800-900 calories a day if I was comfortable doing that. She avoided in-person check-ins, telling me a virtual call was fine and better... and her regular calls were always very quick. She'd cut you off quickly to end the call! If you didn't lose weight... just keep cutting calories, do more cardio was all that was stressed at every check in. I agree with other reviews that she laughs when you tell her what you've been doing and eating... almost like it's just something that comes naturally to her because she's not that well educated on what she claims to be an expert on? She had no other advice, but very quick to collect payment!

She advertises that she specializes in eating disorders, but she admitted when pressed that she has no expertise on this subject.

    I never saw Dr.K, instead I saw another person ( Rita?) who quit the practice after two…read moreappointments and who was late to mine. No specific advice or improvements, the only thing I learned about was egg muffins and chia and oatmeal pudding. No interest in patient improvement. Total waste of time and money ( and they will try to sell you products!).

    I only had two virtual appointments with Dr. K, and she quit on me…read more First, it took me almost two months to send my lab work to Dr. K since her digital fax number did not work after several attempts. I ended up getting a regular fax number which finally worked. Her office is shared so phone calls go to a voice machine most of the time. During my virtual appointments, I noticed Dr. K did not pay attention to my labs and medical history and instead focused primarily on my diet. My sessions were only 30 minutes so I felt I had to talk quickly to get her up to speed on any tests I already completed in the past year. Dr. K mentioned there was some type of diet log on their Healthie app, but she did not explain on how often she would look at this to provide client feedback. She followed up online with items I could and should not eat, and approximate measurements. I felt like I was on a Jenny Craig diet with meal options, as there was no explanation of how certain foods or timing would reverse my condition. I had to ask for weekly appointments in order to review my progress and suggestions. I felt criticized the entire time, as if I was trying to challenge her integrity instead of her understanding my religious or GF diet restrictions. After 15 minutes into the second appointment, she decided we were not a "good match." She also said she did not want to take the time to explain the science behind her approach. She is like a fitness trainer that tells you what exercises to do without explaining how the different skills will effect your health and physical well being during workouts! I am extremely motivated to work with a doctor who has patience to explain things and work in a positive fashion, rather than criticize a patient's efforts with a very negative attitude.
