“My name is Vivian Abdalla, I am a certified holistic nutritionist with a medical background (studied in medical school in Egypt) and now a newly certified holistic weight loss expert coach. I am starting my career by working as nutritionist and weight loss coach at my new clinic in Burlington, On., Canada (one on one consultation).

I was working as a doctor in Egypt before I coming to Canada. When I became a resident in Canada I went through a serious health problem for 3 years and I had anxiety and depression because of this. When my health status improved, I wanted to start my qualifying exams for medicine. It was very stressful for me so I heard about the nutrition career from one of my old friends who was studying at IHN. It was very interesting for me and I decided to start learning about nutrition and this was one of my best decisions I have ever had in my life.

After I became a certified holistic nutritionist, I wanted to be more specialized in my career and learn more about weight loss. I did my research and I was lucky to find Fit Chicks Academy. I wanted to apply all that I was learning on myself first.

I loved all the modules and every time I started a new module, I got so excited. I have learned a lot and am looking forward to starting my career.

First, I started applying most of what I have learned on myself . The complete in 3 rule and the volume method along with the intermittent fasting. Successfully, I lost in 2 months more than 20 pounds.

I recommend this wonderful program to anyone looking forward to coaching and teaching clients who want to lose weight in a healthy way and make it a lifestyle change. This program is very rich in all the knowledge it provides and the helpful tools too.”

 

Recipe: Strawberry Green Smoothie

This perfect green smoothie will help you feel balanced, energized, and full for the day! Loaded with greens, fiber, plant-based protein, healthy fats, and enough fruit and almond butter to sweeten, without making it a dessert for breakfast. I love using spinach and strawberry. Both are low-glycemic real whole food which help stabilize your blood sugar and insulin level. Meanwhile, they provide the body with many vitamins, minerals and fiber.
