I finally know what it means to Eat to Live vs. Live to Eat


Shellee Dyne, located in Calabasas, has helped me make successful diet lifestyle changes, but I wanted to let you know that she is now in Westlake every Monday! All these years, I wasn’t feeding my body what it really needed. I had read & heard about clean eating, but without educating myself, thought it sounds boring & full of deprivation. But I was wrong. While I have lost weight, it’s really more than just a number on the scale. It’s about feeling good, having energy and most important being healthy. If someone would have told me my cravings for sugar would disappear, I seriously would have never believed them. But it has and it’s true. I HIGHLY recommend her. Life changing.
