Client Testimonials

Before I met Mary, I struggled with inflammation, weight, fatigue and low energy. Since working with Mary, my weight loss has been 26 pounds in 5 weeks. My energy levels have been over the top and I sleep much better. The supplements Mary chose for me have made such a difference in my life. I was unaware of all the nutrients I was missing in my body. Mary recommended some recipes and foods I should eat and some I should not eat. It’s amazing how I felt in such a short time. I have more confidence in my life and I have a better outlook on life. I could text Mary anytime with questions and she was right there with an answer.
The green smooth she recommended is awesome…its my favorite ever. I actually crave it every day. The recipes and help with foods was amazing. I believe in having a health coach, acupuncturist, massage therapist and a D.O. working together for the the wellbeing of their patients-it makes so much sense and works! Mary is 100% there for her clients. She is an amazing person and health coach. I have and will always mention this program to everyone I come in contact with. I have been asked what have you done? You look great! I send them Mary’s info every time!

“My lupus inflammation marker (CRPhs – which is what my doctors have monitored closely) went from 136 in March of 2015 down to 1 in May of 2016. This has calmed many of the problems that were cropping up because of the lupus/inflammation. My hair has started to come back and I have had little to no joint pain. My low grade fevers have also ceased. The digestive issues I was having such an awful time with have stopped!
There simply aren’t words to say just how this, and you, have impacted my life. You have changed my life- Completely. I feel better than I felt BEFORE I was diagnosed with lupus. I’m not afraid to wake up in the morning and guess what new ache or pain I was going to have to deal with that day. Because I don’t have them! I’m confident that as long as I continue down this path I will be able to play and keep up with my boys, be able to work full time and just plain feel good. Read the Rest of Brandi’s Amazing Story.

I have been a vegetarian/vegan for 15 years and have never been able to get rid of the extra belly fat. Since working with Mary- In only 5 weeks, I have more energy, brought organic meat back into my diet, lowered my cholesterol by 30 points, improved other lab results and lost 15 lb. of belly fat that just fell off and 4 inches off my waistline. The weight loss is surprising and the side effect of this healthy lifestyle eating plan is that it curbs my appetite and eliminates cravings. It’s not a diet, it is a way of life that offers energy, weight loss and good health through all the right foods.

I had been trying for five years to lose weight before I got in touch with Mary. In those five years I tried calorie counting, juicing, not eating and over exercising, acupuncture, Reiki, reflexology and who knows what else. I would lose a little bit of weight and then when I was tired of starving I would binge eat myself right back to where I was. When I called Mary in 2014 I was all doom and gloom, telling her all the reasons why she couldn’t help me – but she decided to try anyway. My first problem was that I wanted to lose weight, and I realize now that my health and how I feel are so much more important than the number on the scale. I started the detox kit with support, and was amazed how how good I felt after only a few days. I had more energy as my body got rid of the garbage I’d been filling it with over the years as well as feeling better mentally and emotionally! The food plan is not calorie restricted (there is no calorie counting!), and feeling satiated after I ate was a wonderful feeling. For me, feeling satisfied after I eat is critical to my success. By eating from the extensive foods allowed by the meal plan, I was able to eat what I liked, create my own meals and recipes, and I never felt hungry or deprived. As a bonus, I dropped two sizes and kept them off. Mary was incredibly supportive as I went along on my journey, even if I wasn’t perfect. This is a lifestyle change, not a diet, and the guidance was a tremendous help to me in making that change. Now I’m healthier and my kids are too!

Mary is one of the most knowledgeable health and wellness coaches I have ever met. When I first heard her speak about Hashimoto’s and overall well-being, her passion immediately caught my attention. You can’t fake genuine passion and Mary is coming from a place of first-hand experience. I have recommended her services to others and feel confident she will change their lives for the better!

I’m so glad that I met Mary and went forward with the nutrition coaching. I’m a person who is pretty knowledgeable about health, but I needed some guidance and support. Mary is a great listener and a very caring and compassionate person. She was able to help me choose the right nutrition choices to address health concerns I was dealing with. There’s a lot of healing that can come from nutrition choices rather than taking a medication. She was also able to connect me with the right Primary care provider to get necessary tests taken to get more answers. I recommend her services frequently because she helped me change my health! I highly recommend her services, if your dealing with any health conditions and you want to help your body heal naturally through healthy nutrition choices she is the person you want to talk to.

I am so impressed with all the knowledge that Mary has with Hashimotos and well as many other health conditions. Her passion to help her clients is so impressive. I would not hesitate to refer her to anyone who is struggling with Hashimotos or other many other related illnesses. Mary can really help with which labs to get to get a clear picture with what is going on and not waste money on unnecessary testing.

Mary has been a tremendous help to me with my stomach issues. I would not be on my way to the best health ever if it was not for the time I have spent with Mary. She is organized, timely, and very informed about all aspects of my issues. Mary never leaves a question unanswered, she takes the time necessary to fulfill every issue.

I have Hashimoto’s and other autoimmune issues that I work on with Mary. In a few months, with Mary’s support and guidance I have changed my diet and feel and look better than I have in a long time. She helps you map out a plan that is realistic and easy to follow based on what your specific needs require. The other really cool thing about this, is that Mary and I do this all virtually…over the phone, email/online. I’m on the West Coast and she’s on the East Coast! It’s easy to connect and there really isn’t anyone around my area that does what she does…and I live in the mecca of “healthy” living.
~ Dawn Scott, Mission Viejo, CA

Mary is an amazing health coach who really works to bring all the pieces of the puzzle together, and address your health on every level – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. I have been sick for years with Hashimoto’s among other health issues. Mary has helped connect me with the proper healthcare providers which has been an immense help as I have spent years searching for the proper providers for me that want to do more than just offer me another pill to mask my problems. Her knowledge of food and nutrition and helping to identify what works for me and what MY body needs is just amazing. Mary’s help, guidance, support and knowledge are just immeasurable!!!!!
~ Jennifer Russell, Hollis, ME

I cannot thank Mary enough for her help and wisdom in helping me to better understand and therefore manage my Hashimotos. She was kind, understanding, knowledgeable, professional and certainly helped me to advocate for what I needed. I first met Mary at an evening talk she did through OOB Adult Education. Her presentation made it clear that helping people to improve their health, specifically around thyroid issues, is a true passion for her. The next day I got in touch and set up my first appointment. She asked many questions to help to make sure she wasn’t missing anything (something no other medical professional had ever done) and then put a plan together to help me feel better and to improve my health. I had been dealing with thyroid issues for over 20 years and had never found someone who acknowledged my symptoms and helped me to believe that this was something I could improve. She was clear with me that this wasn’t going to be a quick fix, but was certainly something that was manageable if I was willing to work for it. Within a week of following her program, probably less, I was already feeling better. I was sleeping better, less mood swings, less rashes, less foggy thinking and had more energy. Over the weeks we adapted the program based upon how I was feeling and what needed to change. While I still have a long road ahead, for the first time in 20+ years, I’m headed down that road, feeling better, improving my health and I know that I’m headed in the right direction. I’ve learned so much from Mary and cannot say enough to encourage others to seek her out if they’re on a similar journey.
