If you are wondering how does a pant-based shopping cart look, for someone trying to lose a few pounds over the week or for the course of the month, here’s is just one example of many. What you see here is me just finishing grocery shopping for this week (M-F)🍌🍎🥑🥥🥒🥬 . . Many of you may say something like, THAT’S IT!?!? 🧐🤨 & my response is, YES❗️This is what works for me, for this particular health/fitness goal! Also, I like to go by the philosophy of “Eat until you’re CONTENT, and not until you’re FULL. After all, I oftentimes urge people who are are looking to lose weight to pay more attention to our stomachs while eating. Oftentimes, we end up ignoring the signals that our stomachs give off when we have had enough food, and end up eating more than we actually need. . . By listening to our stomachs, or eating intelligently, you will allow your stomach to quickly digest what you eat, maximize the amount of #nutrients that your body can quickly absorb in a short time frame. Besides, for me, I like to be light on my feet and stomach, especially when I workout during the early evening.
If you are wondering- Yes, this is definitely a challenge for me, and no. I didn’t always used to eat this way. In fact, I used to eat terribly, and suck at grocery shopping! Read more about that story here. . . Now, my weekends, on the other hand, are a different story. On the weekends, I like to treat/reward myself for the discipline that I’ve demonstrated over the week, in effort to meet my health and fitness goals.
So back to my question-what’s on your grocery list this week?😋

Certified Holistic Nutritionist | Wellness Coach | Pre/Postnatal Fitness Specialist
My journey into holistic nutrition began with a personal transformation that would ultimately reshape not just my body, but my entire life's purpose. Eight years ago, I embarked on an ambitious 90-day raw vegan cleanse that would become the catalyst for my career in wellness. Watching my body shed 30 pounds, experiencing unprecedented mental clarity, and witnessing my skin transform to a natural glow, I realized I had discovered something profound – the healing power of whole, plant-based foods.
This wasn't just about weight loss; it was about discovering optimal health through natural means. Armed with my Master of Science degree and an insatiable curiosity about human nutrition, I devoted myself to understanding the intricate relationship between food, body, and performance. I became my own case study, undertaking various cleansing and fasting programs 2-3 times annually, meticulously documenting what worked and what didn't.
As a certified Holistic Nutritionist, I approach wellness through a comprehensive lens, understanding that true health encompasses physical, mental, and emotional well-being. My background in Pre/Postnatal Fitness has taught me the importance of adaptive nutrition – how different life stages require different approaches to nourishment.
What sets my approach apart is the blend of scientific rigor with real-world experience. Over eight years of plant-based living, I've refined my understanding of cleansing and nutrition through both academic study and personal experimentation. This 10-day smoothie cleanse isn't just another program – it's the culmination of years of research, personal trials, and successful client transformations.
Initially, I shared my knowledge informally, creating personalized meal plans for friends and family. Their successes – from increased energy and better sleep to improved digestion and sustained weight management – convinced me that these insights needed to reach a broader audience. The positive feedback was unanimous: this approach was different because it was both effective and sustainable.
Today, through NelNutrition, I've helped hundreds of clients reconnect with their bodies and discover the transformative power of proper nutrition. This cleanse represents the best of what I've learned – a carefully crafted program that combines scientific principles with practical application.
What you'll find in this guide isn't just theory – it's proven methodology backed by both scientific research and real-world results. I've done the experimentation, made the mistakes, and refined the process so you don't have to. Whether you're new to cleansing or a seasoned health enthusiast, this program offers a structured, effective path to renewed health and vitality.
My mission is simple: to empower you with the knowledge and tools to transform your health, just as I transformed mine. This cleanse is more than just a program – it's your first step toward a sustainable, vibrant, plant-powered lifestyle.
Join me on this journey to discover what your body is truly capable of when nourished properly. Your transformation begins now.
