How to Lose Your First Five Pounds This Month
About Kara…
I’m Kara, a Functional Registered Dietitian and NASM-Certified Personal Trainer who understands that nutrition and fitness needs to take a holistic and individualized approach for YOUR goals and lifestyle.
I struggled with finding true confidence and happiness in my body for years. From a young age, I started trying to lose weight and “improve my health” through all of the wrong methods.
Does This Sound Like You?
You struggle to lose fat and feel like your metabolism is “broken."
You have hormonal imbalances or symptoms that are significantly impacting your quality of life.
You feel like you're always "all or nothing" whenever it comes to nutrition and fitness.
Your doctor has told you that all of your blood work is “normal” but you still don’t feel like yourself.
You’re tired of always losing and regaining the same amount of weight year after year.
Your lack of self-confidence and poor relationship with food is impacting your ability to live your life to the fullest.
You struggle with hormonal and metabolic issues such as hypothyroidism, PCOS, insulin resistance, heart disease, obesity, or cortisol dysregulation.
You’re dealing with chronic digestive distress, constipation, and bloating.
You want to feel strong and confident in your body’s physical abilities.
You struggle with fatigue, headaches, poor sleep, and an overall feeling of burnout.
You want to stop having periods that are irregular or that knock you out for days.
You want to build a solid foundation through sustainable nutrition, fitness, and lifestyle habits so you can support your body and improve your overall body composition.
Sound familiar? If so, it’s time to ditch the frustration and confusion surrounding your health. No more feeling like your symptoms are all in your head or feeling invalidated by your healthcare provider. Functional Fat Loss Academy is here to help you get to the root cause of your struggles!
