What makes weight loss so hard?
Your body is a complex and dynamic system of nerve impulses, hormones, and neurotransmitters that drive cravings, hunger, satiety, and weight. Food quality matters when it comes to attaining a healthy weight. The equation used by many diets of “calories in versus calories out” is just too simplistic in most cases.
You have to learn how to make the best choices for you. These are the choices that maximize your energy, health, weight, and taste buds.

What supplements will I need?
Dr. Skye recommends some supplements during the elimination phase of the 12 weeks to replace the nutrients removed from the diet or enhance nutrients that are deficient.
What other weight loss and nutritional support is available?
Dr. Skye can assess your stress levels and help you understand how you might be using food for support. She can assist you in developing alternative strategies to manage stress, which include breathing, meditation, and guided visualization. Food allergy testing may reveal certain intolerances or allergies that are contributing to your difficulty in losing weight.
As part of the Journey to Vibrant Health, Dr. Skye will examine your exercise practices, sleep patterns, and chemical exposure to inform your personalized plan. She may also offer herbal medicines and natural supplementation to kickstart weight loss. These strategies can also help balance hormones, such as thyroid hormones, that may be contributing to weight management issues.
