OUR CLIENT EXPERIENCES
EXCELLENTBased on 48 reviewsAaron Gos2024-10-21As a busy professional life can be very chaotic especially when you live in the GTA. Being busy has had a negative impact on my physical and mental health…especially my eating habits. Over the course of the year I was unhappy with myself and the way I looked. I knew I had to take action and needed someone to keep me accountable. Filomena was the perfect fit for what I needed. Not only did she provide world class nutrition consulting but she gives you the tools you need in order to succeed for life. I started working with Filomena in June, fast forward to now I have lost close to 8 pounds of body weight and 3 inches off my waist. If you are thinking or considering working with Filomena and her team it should be a no brainer. You will be thrilled with the results you achieve and the friendly relationship you build with her along the way.Vady Chhom2024-09-12Amazing experience working with Filomena.

I recommend to everyone regardless of their health concerns, to work with a nutritionist as there is so much that we are not aware of (as simple as which brand of hummus to buy ;). Filomena has been wonderful, and I definitely recommend her!Nancy-Gioia Balkins2024-03-23I am so grateful for the knowledge and help Filomena gave me for a year.

In April of 2023 I met Filomena and it wasn’t long before I started losing weight and feeling great! My family doctor had even asked me what I was doing differently and to continue with it as he noticed such a huge difference in my Health. She helped me reach my goal which I thought was not possible and I continue to learn which is why I look forward to continuing with visits as I feel it is very important to stay on this path and not go back to old habits.
