Lisa Reynosa, weight-loss coach
Lisa Reynoso coaches people who have problems with emotional and stress eating, giving them tools to change their mindsets around food. She is a certified coach by Dr. Glenn Livingsten’s Never Binge Again organization. Her approach focuses on healing and taking care of oneself. She teaches clients how to change their identity around food, so that change comes from the inside out. She does not prescribe any specific diet—because diets never work in the long term. The focus is helping people achieve a lifestyle change that is sustainable to help them reach their goals. The principles upon which the methodology is based line up with Biblical teachings as well as principles from the Spirit of Prophecy. Lisa is using these methods herself, and has found success in her own journey, not just with food, but in other areas of life as well.
