Shelby has truly been a life saver! I was upset with where I was physically and it was affecting every other area of my life. I was spiraling out of control with my eating, engaging in negative self-talk, and repeating the vicious cycle of trying to stick to an unrealistic diet and it was taking a toll on me and my family. Shelby has such a kind heart....she listened without judging, pointed me in the right direction, allowed room for self discovery and growth, and cheered and encouraged me every step of the way. Through this process, I have learned to give myself more grace, come back to a more natural and intuitive eating process, and feel like I am taking back control of my life. This was not a gimmick or quick fix, this was truly a systematic approach to eating (and life) that leads to sustainable change and you controlling your life again. I cannot thank her enough for our time together!

Shelby is a great coach. Very caring and knowledgeable with great follow up and support. I highly recommend her.

Shelby's course was beneficial to me overcoming my diet minded ways. I have broken free of my thinking that I need to be constantly on a diet. It has not been easy as I have been dieting for over 40 years. There have been many 'aha' moments and she has been there to explain things to me and hold me accountable. I will NEVER go back to counting anything but my blessings in this life. I love eating healthy and taking care of my body on my terms. The freedom I have obtained is priceless. I'm never giving that up again and I regret spending so many years trying the next best diet. What a waste of precious time. It has been a journey and it continues to be a journey. Now I have the tools and confidence to make decisions and listen to my own body. She is a wonderful coach with a lot of experience and fabulous at what she does. I highly recommend her!

When I first had my clarity call with Shelby and she told me that she thought we would only need about 8 sessions to rid me of my food and body struggles, I was skeptical to say the least. As a former competitive bodybuilder and weight class sport athlete (wrestling/jiu jitsu), it felt like these things had just become part of me for good. At the same time, though, there was something about her even over the phone that inspired me to put trust in her and in the process and go for it.

Well, here we are after only 7 sessions (we're keeping one in our back pocket for a rainy day), and I can say that I haven't felt this free around food or in how I view my body since I was a teenager. Most of my GI issues have just disappeared. I can experiment in the kitchen and try new restaurants as often as I'd like and be completely guilt free. In short, I'm free.

Shelby is a phenomenal human being who also happens to be exceptionally good at what she does. While the work is challenging, showing up to our calls consistently felt like a gift to myself.

I can't recommend working with Shelby highly enough.

Shelby and her program are the answer to those who, like me, have struggled with their relationship with food for a long, long time. The program is practical, actionable and sustainable. Shelby is expert, no-BS, courageous with her advice and it's all founded on research, science as well as personal experience. I saw results right away, and have maintained a path toward my goals from day one. Unfortunately, I waffled on my commitment to Shelby for over 2.5 years, but once I committed I never had a single ounce of regret. It's 100% worth the money and the best investment I made all year - because the payoff is multiple times per day.

I met Shelby virtually 4 months ago. After years of failed dieting, yo-yo weight loss, and a completely defeated attitude when it came to weight loss, she helped me begin a positive life-long change in terms of my relationship with food and myself. She doesn’t give you meal plans and say “follow this”. Shelby takes the time to get to know YOU- as a person- and dives deep into the underlying problems you have around food. If it was as simple as “control yourself”, we wouldn’t have an obesity problem! I’ve lost 20lbs in 3 months- not by restricting myself to “good” foods only- but by doing the hard work of addressing WHY I overate in the first place and using Shelby’s strategies to recreate a love for food while not overdoing/obsessing about it. I’m improving my health.... and not starving myself to do it.... she’s a LIFE SAVER!

Shelby has been such a huge help to me in changing my life for the better.
I have had 50 years of thinking about, and obsessing over food. I have had all of the negative talk that goes with dieting and not measuring up to the diet rules and restrictions.
Along comes Shelby to the rescue! Together, we worked through all of the old baggage and today I can say I no longer have the negative thoughts about messing up or missing the mark. I give myself grace. What a nice, indescribable feeling. Presently, I am free to live, workout and eat healthy. The weight is coming off and I feel the best I have felt in a long time.
Thank you, Shelby, from the bottom of my heart! Hugs!

Shelby is amazing! This program was about so much more then eating. First off I had no idea that I was so stressed out I wasn’t even getting hunger cues. Through mindful eating/living I have realized so much more about how my restrictive eating was carrying over into restrictive living. Mentally I feel like the sky is the limit and I have started to dream again! Thank you Shelby!

Shelby did a beautiful job of meeting me where I was, affirming my strengths, and walking alongside me with her wisdom and support. What a gift that was! And it still is, because the tools she gave me will last a lifetime. If you work with Shelby, be prepared for a new and better mindset, new and better decisions, far less attachment to the scale and "programs," more awareness of healthy, sustainable options, and more comfort in your own skin. She made all of this possible for me, and I am confident she gives her all to *every* client. With far less effort, I lost the weight I wanted to lose, and though stay-at-home orders are still making life more challenging, I have SO much more confidence that my body and I are on the right path. And might I add, the path is more enjoyable. :-) Thank you, Shelby, for your knowledge, wisdom, patience, kindness and generosity. I recall with gratitude all the ways you went above and beyond for me and I say THANK YOU!

What I love about Shelby is that she got to the root cause of my overeating and body image issues. So many other programs only deal with the symptoms of overeating via weight loss and exercise. Inevitably, I swing back into my old patters. Why? Because I didn't deal with the root cause.

Shelby establishes routines and practices that address these root causes and conditions. So now, issues that I've struggled with for decades, are finally abating. Thank. You. Shelby.

If your experience is anything like mine, there will be ups and downs. You will doubt yourself and the program. Just stick with it and get some damn relief!

Shelby's intuitive demeanor, education and training are top notch for an immersive, integrated approach to therapy. Without getting into too personal details, Shelby had the perfect approach for me to dig deep and get into past/present traumas, recognizing how it was interconnected with my physical health and relationship with food. No one gets 7 bleeding ulcers by accident, especially when they are not bacteria based.

She expertly crafts cognitive based therapy techniques with industry leading knowledge on food and movement, more or less guaranteeing the positive mind and body result you are looking for. If you are looking for an easy, quick fix, this is not for you. If you are serious about your recovery, this program IS for you. With her coaching, I have gone back to a race ready mindset, better tools to use in my current practice as an attorney, and reorganizing my wellness outlook on development of truly healthy relationships with people and myself, and the ability to recognize damaging relationships and ending them with grace and dignity.

My road to recovery is far from over, but with Shelby's guidance, there is no going back the way I came. Years ago, I was told that when it comes to therapy, in any form, you get what you put into it. If you are ready to get into those uncomfortable places within yourself and really dig deep to see yourself as you are, this is the right way to do it. Creating these building blocks for yourself will stick, and you will thank yourself for it. Have that respect for yourself, see it through. When you are done with the time you've made for yourself with Shelby, you will be happier for it. I am, every day. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

I've struggled with an unhealthy relationship with food and binge eating disorder for over twenty-five years. My healthcare team recommended a mindful eating program as the next step in my journey. When I first started working with Shelby, I was cautiously optimistic. I didn't know if I could ever truly have a healthy relationship with food, but now I know that I ABSOLUTELY CAN! Working with Shelby was one of the best investments I've ever made in myself. The program is free of harmful "diet" culture and full of tools to help you peel back the layers of your beliefs about food in order to heal and have a much healthier relationship with food. Now that negative thoughts regarding food have lessened significantly thanks to my work with Shelby, I have a lot more time to do the things that bring me joy. My quality of life has improved immensely.

Shelby truly changed the way that I think. I was hesitant to dive in, but with her steady guidance and upbeat support, I made progress that I never would have anticipated. If you are on the fence, DIVE IN! You will be so happy that you did. - Allison

After a life long struggle with dieting and body image, I found Shelby and TNT Nutrition. This is a practical approach that addresses the reasons why we overeat and fail at weight loss repeatedly. If you are ready to do some hard work and make the necessary changes to stop the cycle you are in the right place. This will be accomplished with support and all the tools you need to succeed. Shelby is a great coach and offers all the help you need. Thanks Shelby

When my GP recommended Shelby's coaching, I had no idea that I'd come out the other end having learned how to love, listen, and truly care for my whole self. After a lifetime of yo-yo dieting, negative body image, and feeling helpless, Shelby's amazing guidance has truly helped me heal. Gone are the obsessive diets, the fear of failure, and the self-loathing that followed every slip up. Shelby has taught me how to finally take charge and live my best life every step of the way. Shelby - Thank you from the bottom of my heart!! I am a beautiful work in progress and I wouldn't be where I am today without your patience and care!

Shelby is an amazing support and an inspiration. I highly recommend to invest in her diet freedom program! If you are willing to do the work, you will not regret it.

Shelby has changed my life! She’s an amazing coach that knows what to say and makes you feel safe, and able to express your true emotions! Learning Intuitive eating has been a game changer for my mental health, outlook on life, and my body image. I was struggling with serious binge eating, and eating large amounts of sugar. I thought struggling was going to be my life forever. Now I feel in charge, and free to eat the foods I want and also trust my body to know what to do. I learned you can still look great and live life at the same time. I highly recommend going through this journey with Shelby!

TNT Nutrition does an excellent job of laying out, step by step, how to stop the negative feedback loop in all of our heads and take control of the narrative, ending the negative cycle that holds us back and allowing us to move forward to a much more positive, open space. The program not only focuses on food issues and cleaning up that front, but also more broadly anything that's holding you back. It has been such an incredible learning journey and I would highly recommend the program to anyone.

Working with Shelby has been wonderful. She was so understanding and supportive. Shelby made it very easy to open up and be honest about my feelings and work through my issues with food. I was able to rediscover an inner strength in myself that allowed me to trust myself and others in my life.

I've had a lifelong struggle with food and dieting, yoyo-ing between restrictive and binge eating. I felt like I would never break the cycle of fear and self-hate surrounding food and my body. I was crippled by guilt whenever I would eat anything no matter how "healthy" or "good", and I skipped most meals because I just didn't know how to do anything that wouldn't cause me to gain weight. I was exhausted, overweight, and hopeless. When I pictured a lifetime of this restrictive dieting lifestyle, I wanted to give up. Then I found Shelby.

Investing in myself through Diet Freedom was the best decision I've ever made. I was skeptical that anything could help me, but Shelby gave me the permission that I've needed to give my body what it needs and to feel empowered to make healthy decisions. She told me once that you can't hate yourself into change, and it's so true - Shelby showed me how to love myself, stay positive even when I'm going through struggles, and keep moving forward on the path to a healthy life. I feel free from the control that food had over my life, and I have a renewed energy for other things that I'd given up on now that I can focus on something other than my diet. I can't say enough about how worth it this program is.
