“It was very eye-opening doing sweat tests. I knew I did sweat a lot while exercising, but had never quantified for different types of exercises.”

Eve offers a very personalized service. She was very detailed-oriented to understand what products I had used … and made all calculations of calories, sodium, fluids that I needed, and suggested strategies that I had opportunity to test and provide feedback.

Then adjustments were made as necessary. It was very eye-opening doing sweat tests. I knew I did sweat a lot while exercising, but had never quantified for different types of exercises, and therefore didn’t know what or how much to put back into my body to keep performing, which is especially important for endurance events.

Altogether, the process was 4 months since first consultation. I lost 12lbs, and more importantly finished the races I wanted without feeling de-hydrated at the end.

The most valuable information I learned was how, when and what to refuel my body with, while racing, while using the products that I’m familiar with and know work for me. For racing, the benefit was having a strategy, and being able to test and make adjustments. But overall, having the ability to structure well the meals with the proper groups/quantities in order to lose weight. Something that wasn’t happening despite the tremendous amount of hours I had been putting on training.

I absolutely wish I had done it long time ago, and as such, I would recommend it to beginners and advanced athletes that want to improve their results.

“She is a professional, and I always feel confident that I am receiving advice grounded in science.”

I'm a competitive distance runner (mostly marathons and ultras) for whom proper nutrition and fueling are critical. Eve taught me the basics of constructing a meal/snacking plan that I can easily follow and adjust without sacrificing foods that I enjoy.

She takes the time to understand your goals and to develop an individualized plan to achieve them. She cares about her clients' successes and failures. She is a professional, and I always feel confident that I am receiving advice grounded in science. I never worry about conflicts of interest or whether I am being marketed to for the latest supplement du jour.

The overall (and most exciting) benefit is that both times I've worked extensively with Eve, I've achieved PR times in road marathons, even as I've gotten older. Most recently, at the age of 44, I PR'd at the BMW Dallas Marathon with a chip time of 3:16:19.

I first began working with Eve in April 2014 when she helped me get a handle on gastrointestinal distress issues that were plaguing my long runs/races. As a consequence, I was deliberately under-fueling and limiting my performance. I checked in with her periodically through 2015 as I ventured into ultra running and needed help learning to fuel for longer events.

In April 2018, I sought her help again to overhaul my diet and lose weight as I prepared to go for another PR in a fall marathon. With her guidance, I also noticed a change in body composition (reduced body fat) that complemented my disciplined training resulting in faster paces at an easier effort. I’ve learned that achieving an optimal and sustainable race weight takes time, patience, planning, and accountability. There are no safe shortcuts.

I have referred several people to Nutriworks in the past, and I will continue to do so. I think everyone can benefit from a solid nutrition/diet assessment but especially athletes who seek to improve their performance. Eve is a joy to work with and an expert in her field. I cannot stress enough the importance of consulting a licensed, degreed professional for nutrition advice. Eve has the degrees, license, and certifications to back her up. I will continue to work with her as I embark on more ambitious goals for 2019 and beyond!

“I have better stamina and shorter recovery times from learning how to properly fuel for my sport and make adjustments as needed.”

Eve has changed the way I eat and has helped me have more balanced nutrition to keep me fueled for my figure skating. She has helped me choose what to eat, how much and when. When I eat properly, I notice that my stamina is better when running my programs. I also noticed that my soreness and recovery are minimal compared to what they used to be. I used to get horrible cramping in my legs and would be sore for days following a heavier training day. The cramping has since gone and recovery times have also been drastically reduced.

Oddly enough, I was eating about twice as much as I previously was. Eve has also helped me understand macronutrients and how to properly chose them according to my goals (performance, weight loss, etc). This year I finally met my goal of winning the national title of “Adult Gold Ladies National Champion”. First, I had a qualifying competition for the Midwestern part of the US, where I had to place in the top four, then was able to proceed on to nationals. I notice that as I age, the more important nutrition becomes to keep my body performing best. Winning nationals wouldn’t have been possible without the help I received from Eve to fuel properly.

“Little did I know how easy Eve would make healthy eating. ”

I first started visiting Eve because I couldn’t find a solution to chronic migraines that landed me in the hospital. I had just started seeing a bodywork/massage therapist for the same reason, and he suggested I see a nutritionist with a sports performance focus.

In the past I had successfully gotten super fit - extremely lean and strong - however, during that time I was obsessive about logging my food, to a point where I don’t think it was healthy. This time around I was worried about returning to the stress that came along with meal prep, hard to find ingredients for recipes, and eating 5 meals a day. Life was already stressful. I needed this to be easy for me.

Little did I know how easy Eve would make healthy eating. She broke down fats, carbs and proteins into simple lists, explained how I need to pair foods for my body, and made eating easy. I truly appreciate her simple workout and eating plan. Feeding my body the fuel it needs to run healthfully helped me get my body in order and reduce my migraines. The migraine reduction helped me quit my job, which eliminated stress, and now the migraines are pretty much gone. It’s shocking, I still can’t believe it.

A side note of importance for women - for the past 16 months my menstrual cycle has been inconsistent. Doing exactly what Eve told me got my cycle back in order. I think this was a big step toward getting a handle on stress and my health. Now when my cycle is out of whack I go back to my food and workout schedule - and even if I’m under stress in my life, my cycle comes back. It’s amazing how powerful food and exercise are for my body!

I think I’ve been working with eve for 7 months - and keep seeing her. I really want this to stick and consider her my nutrition coach! My migraines are gone, that’s the big one. I also have a solid understanding of healthful eating and can quickly make eating decisions on the go. A side benefit that I didn’t expect is how much I’ve helped my family. I’d rather they book an appointment with Eve, but they are now logging food and eating more balanced meals that has led to weight loss and an uptick in energy for them.

Eating a well-rounded meal isn’t complicated and eating in general isn’t complicated. If I give my body good meals then I feel my best - and if I’m not feeling well I need to take a look at what I’m eating to see if I’m doing what I need to do first, before going to the doctor.

Everyone should go see Eve! I tell everyone I know about her. If you don’t feel well, start with your food and exercise and go see Eve. A side note on the sports performance focus - I’m not an athlete, and wasn’t given a detailed answer as to why I needed to find a nutritionist who worked with actual athletes. My massage therapist who gave me this recommendation is in the top of his field so I didn’t question him - I searched Google. After making a few calls I had nutritionists who wanted to start off with running a lot of tests that were expensive. One nutritionist told me that I had a thyroid problem, and she made this declaration during her first 5 minutes with me over the phone. I spoke to more people who were unhelpful and judgmental about this request, but I stuck to my guns and I’m so so so absolutely thankful that I stumbled across Eve and Nutriworks.

“I no longer struggle with eating, my body has more muscle and less fat, my lifts have improved, I look and feel better, and I have developed better eating habits.”

My life has improved significantly since my first appointment with Kelsey. The benefits are too many to count, but the most important ones are: I no longer struggle with eating, my body has more muscle and less fat, my lifts have improved, I look and feel better, and I have developed better eating habits.

Since I was in high school, I struggled with eating. I ate the wrong foods- mainly carbs and sugar for breakfast- and became hungry almost immediately after. I would then eat anything to feel full and as a consequence, I put on too much weight. I knew I had a problem when I drove through a Sonic drive thru a second time to get more candy on my ice cream.

I realized I was too heavy and as a result, developed what I later realized was an unhealthy habit to lose weight. I began fasting for long periods of time. I would go 20 hours without eating until my body was shaky and my memory was foggy. This method worked-at first. I lost 30 pounds by fasting. Even though I didn't feel good, my weight was under control, and I thought I was on the right track. August of 2018, my gym bought a body composition monitor, and I realized my body fat percentage was close to 20 percent. I was crushed. I spend 5 months in denial that my body fat was that high and finally made a nutrition appointment. Kelsey helped me get though the initial few weeks of change, until I was comfortable with new eating habits. After I implemented her recommendations, I have been able to meet my goals. I exceeded my target amount of fat loss and currently am building muscle with a different meal plan. I have discovered several bonuses since I changed my diet. I have more energy since I am leaner and also found my unhealthy mental behavior disappeared when I ate properly. I feel more confident and flattered with the looks and attention I get in the gym.

I have worked with Kelsey since January 14, 2019. I still see her every other month to assess my progress and design my eating around my goals.

I am leaner, stronger and healthier. As of August 2019, I have lifted weights for 8 years and am now the leanest I’ve been since I was in high school. This means when I look in the mirror, I can see all of the hard work I’ve invested in my body. My lifts in the gym have increased. I can squat 3 plates and bench 100 lb dumbbells. This strength is useful when I work with machinery or help my parents with their luggage. Lastly, I feel better. Kelsey told me it’s important to have balanced meals spaced throughout the day. I can think more clearly and feel calm and level-headed.

The most valuable information is knowing what and when to eat. Despite the panoply of articles I read and fringe diets I tried, I did not understand nutrition until Kelsey spoke with me and gave me a personalized meal plan. I no longer feel anxious about being too hungry or putting on too much weight. Anyone who is willing put in the effort will benefit from working with Kelsey.

I appreciate all of the help from Kelsey. Staying healthy while working a full time desk job sometimes feels like an uphill battle, and I get irritated when colleagues joke about the huge bottle of water I carry or when coworkers tease me for avoiding donuts from the breakroom trough. In spite of all this, Kelsey reinforces my effort and motivates me to pursue healthy eating and a lean physique.

“The awful sloshing sound during runs is now a thing of the past.“

I decided to work with Eve after a marathon that I was unable to finish due to an upset stomach. My concern was that during all of my long runs and longer races I was unable to intake any water or fluids.

Running while completely dehydrated was not only effecting my performance, but it was also dangerous. Right off the bat, Eve was able to identify that my sodium intake was really low which was affecting the way I absorbed liquids. My diet now reflects this change.

I worked with Eve for about 6 months. We started the journey in spring and ended it in November after my goal race. I set a PR and a BQ at the Route 66 Marathon without any stomach problems. I was able to drink and take fuel as I practiced during my training.

I am able to drink fluids during my runs and take gel as well. The awful sloshing sound during runs is now a thing of the past. I don’t bonk during training runs or longer races because I am not severely dehydrated and I can fuel my body better during the runs.

Tweaking my sodium intake was really important to be able to perform better. Eve also offered me solutions on the methods of taking gels during the runs and reducing GI upset. I was also given feedback on my food intake the days leading up to races. I was frequently under eating the day before to reduce the chance of GI upset.

Any endurance athlete who wants to perform better would benefit from this service.
