All the hard work with your amazing help has paid off. E.M. will continue eating healthy as this is now part of his lifestyle.

“The Intuitive Eating Basics Course gave me great clarity and peace with food and my body.”
“After about 25 pretty grueling years of chasing the elusive thin “ideal”, I was ready for a different journey: something brighter, simpler, and more authentic than the diet industry had offered. The Program gave me great clarity and peace – with food as well as my body. I am forever grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from Bonnie!” ~Darcy
“From the first day I met Bonnie, I knew she really cared about me and my health.”
Her knowledge of nutrition is just amazing and she is so compassionate and passionate about what she does that it follows to her clients. We learn to take care of ourselves in a kind way and when we hit a roadblock, she is always there to pick us up.—June
“Bonnie provided the support and teaching that I needed to free myself from feeling guilty about eating.”
“Prior to working with Bonnie, I had a strong diet mentality and was always “on a diet.” I would lose weight on a diet but as soon as I started eating normally again, I would put it back on. I never learn anything about identifying my hunger and I didn’t have a healthy relationship with food. Bonnie provided the support and teaching that I needed to free myself from feeling guilty about eating. I had my first slice of guilt-free pizza recently and it was delicious! I know with Bonnie’s continued support, I will achieve all my goals.”—Donna
“I have been incorporating the intuitive eating principles you taught me and it is so amazing!”
“Oh my gosh, I can’t believe it. This was the first holiday in my life that I actually lost weight. I have been incorporating the intuitive eating principles you taught me and it is so amazing! My husband has to keep telling me to stop looking in the mirror. I feel so much better. I fit into all my clothes. It’s amazing! I am eating slower and only when I am hungry. It’s truly unbelievable. I believe I can do this forever. I am telling anyone who asks me that this is the answer that I have been looking for. Thanks for everything!” – M.K.
“Bonnie really understands the struggles that many of us have faced trying to remake our bodies…”
“My biggest struggle was continuing my intuitive eating practice in social situations and I found myself falling back into a diet mentality. After working with Bonnie, I was able to get to a place where I am more comfortable with my food choices and I am able to be much more present in these social situations. Now, I’m able to have dinner and some wine with friends and not be concerned that I can’t pay enough attention to my needs. I highly recommend working with Bonnie. She really understands the struggles that many of us have faced trying to remake our bodies by controlling them and the world around us. She helped me internalize how and why that’s an impossible approach.” —Nichole
“I now have the confidence and trust in myself to eat what I want when I want without deprivation.”
I’m now the pilot, I’ve taken off and I can get the plane up. I finally know how to eat in the way that’s right for me and what’s good for me. I no longer punish myself; no longer take things away from myself. I now have the confidence and trust in myself to eat what I want when I want without deprivation and I am losing weight and feeling great. —Barbara
“Within a few months, I noticed a significant change in my relationship with food.”
I have always had a love-hate relationship with food. I would ‘watch” myself with reason but every time I was stressed, busy or bored I would turn to food. Within a few months of working with Bonnie, I noticed a significant change in my relationship with food. If I choose to have a piece of chocolate, that’s fine. If I choose not to have it that’s also fine. I never feel like I am depriving myself. Recently I was faced with an extremely stressful situation that would have, in the past, resulted in me eating several pints of ice cream. I realized how much I changed when I didn’t even feel the “need” for ice cream. I coped with the situation without turning to food. I also discovered that when I do indulge, I savor it and actually enjoy it much more without any guilty feelings. I highly recommend working with Bonnie. — Malky
“Bonnie has taught me how to trust my body’s internal signals to determine whether I am hungry and how much food my body needs in order to feel satisfied.”
Not long ago I was at the highest weight I had ever been in my life and was feeling extremely depressed. I was discouraged from all the years of dieting that had done nothing but fail me. Within just a few months of working with Bonnie I learned how to eat right and live a healthy lifestyle. I started shedding the weight but more importantly, I started feeling better about myself both physically and emotionally. It’s been over 2 years since I began my journey with Bonnie. I’ve gotten down to a healthy weight and continue to live a healthy lifestyle. Bonnie has taught me how to trust my body’s internal signals to determine whether I am hungry and how much food my body needs in order to feel satisfied. I highly recommend working with Bonnie. She has changed my life forever and she can do the same for you! Bonnie, thank you for helping me achieve my goals and thank you for your guidance, support and friendship. — R.G.
“Within three weeks of working with Bonnie, I was beginning to understand some of the “whys” I was eating so poorly.”
Before working with Bonnie, I was a very unhappy person. I was trying to work through a fair amount of personal issues. Simultaneously, I had no handle of what I was “shoving” into my mouth. Within three weeks of working with Bonnie, I was beginning to understand some of the “whys” I was eating so poorly. We spoke of so many aspects of my life, such as emotions and self-esteem and Bonnie was always able to tie it in to my eating habits. As the weeks progressed, I understood my actions of eating poorly more and more. I highly recommend working with Bonnie who has reached me on so many levels, helping me to be in control of my eating. —Babs
“I have been given a permission that is life enhancing & with Bonnie’s expertise I no longer feel the fear.”
With Bonnie’s insight, I realized that I have been afraid to eat, not knowing what or how to eat if I’m not on a diet. I used to monitor everything, criticized myself and ate more to soothe my emotions. Working with Bonnie has changed that for me! I am paying attention to my inner signals. I am eating foods I enjoy in reasonable amounts. I have been given a permission that is life enhancing and with Bonnie’s expertise I’m no longer afraid to eat. —Paula
“I have been able to understand why I eat and that it is okay to eat if I am hungry.”
For years I was frustrated with the foods I ate and with my weight going up and down. Within a month of Bonnie’s coaching and support, I have been able to understand why I eat and that it is okay to eat if I am hungry! I don’t need to restrict foods. I think about the “why” behind my eating. I feel better eating a variety of foods knowing if I want I can have chocolate. I am exposing myself to some foods I haven’t had in a while and if it doesn’t taste good at the moment I stop eating it. I highly recommend working with Bonnie. She is very positive, encouraging and always responds to my questions! It has been so positive and worth the investment! Anyone who wants to work on a positive relationship with food and eating, must contact Bonnie. —Kim
“I am more aware of who I am and I get to see, sense and use my internal self to guide myself. It is invigorating!”
At the start of this journey, I was living in diet-mode and it was stressful. I was eating according to set standards that were dictated to me. But once I started on the intuitive eating journey with Bonnie, I became my own person, guiding myself in a positive direction. I am making food decisions now with my own internal controls. I am more aware of who I am and I get to see, sense and use my internal self to guide myself. I now realize I have the ability to do this. It is invigorating! This is the best way to combine the physical and spiritual aspects of eating. —C.R.
“Bonnie helped me identify my triggers and worked to give me the tools to have a stronger relationship with food and my body.”
I’ve struggled with food for many years. I decided it was time to explore the challenges I face, and within a few months of working with Bonnie, she helped me identify my triggers and worked to give me the tools to have a stronger relationship with food and my body. Now I feel in charge of my choices related to food. I highly recommend working with Bonnie as she is kind and supportive. She genuinely understood my struggles and worked hard to ensure my success with the Total Food Freedom™ Program. —Stephanie H.
