Book a SessionWho This Is For
Women in midlife are not eating the wrong foods because they lack willpower. They're eating the wrong foods for where their body is right now. Hormonal shifts change how your body stores fat, builds muscle, and uses energy — and most diets aren't designed with any of that in mind.
Metabolic eating means recognizing where you are in your body and making adjustments based on that. For women in midlife it means prioritizing protein and fiber, moving smarter rather than harder, and building a repeatable system — not another diet you abandon after three weeks.
The results are concrete: loss of body fat including visceral fat, preservation and building of muscle, stable weight that doesn't come back, and more energy — without restriction.
Currently serving clients in the Greater Los Angeles area. Virtual coaching available nationwide.
Using a GLP-1 medication? Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro — these tools can help, but they leave a real question: what and how should I eat? The Metabolic Method takes the guesswork out and helps you protect muscle while your appetite changes.
The Science Behind The Reset
Most nutrition programs give you general guidelines and hope for the best. The Reset starts with your actual body composition — and builds everything from there.
A BodySpec DEXA scan gives you a precise picture of your body composition — lean muscle mass, body fat percentage, and visceral fat. This is the baseline everything is built from. No guesswork.
Using your scan results, we establish your personal macro targets — exactly how much protein, carbohydrate, and fat your body needs to lose fat, preserve muscle, and support your metabolism right now.
From your macros, I design a simple, delicious, fully personalized meal plan — built around your food preferences, your kitchen, and your life. Meals you'll actually want to eat.
I shop your groceries first, then come to your home to teach you to cook your meal plan — so you leave with food, knowledge, and a template you can repeat for life.
This is why the results last. When your meals are built from your actual body data — not a generic template — your body responds. Fat comes off. Muscle stays on. And because you understand the system, you can maintain it.
The Four Pillars
Build every meal around protein to protect metabolism and muscle.
Repeatable meals that remove decision fatigue for good.
I shop your groceries first, then come to your kitchen and teach you the system — so you can do this for life. With monthly coaching available, I'm there as your body and goals evolve.

About Geri
M.S. Health Nutrition Education
Graduate, New School of Cooking Professional Culinary Program
I started dieting at 10 years old. By the time I was an adult I had done it all — the grapefruit diet, the cabbage soup diet, Atkins, Weight Watchers, Noom, multiple juice cleanses and detoxes. I'd lose the weight, go back to eating normally, and gain it all back. For most of my life, that was the cycle.
What made it harder was that I was also managing Hashimoto's and Addison's disease — two autoimmune conditions that affect metabolism, energy, and how your body responds to stress and food. I wasn't just fighting the usual midlife hormonal shifts. My body had extra layers to navigate.
At 55, I stopped dieting and started applying what I actually know. After years in corporate America, I decided to invest in my passions — nutrition and cooking. I enrolled in the professional culinary training program at the New School of Cooking and went on to earn a Master's in Health Nutrition Education. I put both to work, designing a high-protein, metabolism-focused approach for myself and my sister. In four months I lost 13 pounds, reduced my body fat from 28% to 23%, and brought my visceral fat to zero. A year later, nothing has come back.
The shift wasn't dramatic. I structured meals around protein, ensured I got enough fiber, traded excessive cardio for strength training and walking, and started paying attention to portions. Simple adjustments — but grounded in how the midlife female metabolism actually works.
That's what metabolic eating is: recognizing where you are in your body right now and eating in a way that supports it — not the body you had at 35, and not a generic plan designed for someone else. I work with women in perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause — including those navigating GLP-1 medications. Available in-home in Greater Los Angeles and virtually nationwide.

Why Not Just Use Meal Delivery?
Convenience has its place — but it doesn't teach you how to eat.
It works until it doesn't. When you travel. When you're cooking for your family. When the subscription ends. The food arrives ready to eat, but nothing actually changes.
The Reset is different.
I shop your groceries first, then come to your home to teach you exactly how to build meals that keep you full, support your muscle, and fit your life. Not just for this week. For good.
What You Gain with The Reset
This isn't about being fed. It's about never feeling stuck in your kitchen again.
