Like most women I know, I have been trying to lose that elusive 10 pounds for as long as I can remember. I watch what I eat and exercise religiously. I have followed every “diet trend” imaginable…low carbs, no carbs, high protein, no sugar, etc. Going back to college days, I have done dexatrim, weight watchers, slim-fast (even trying 1 shake a day and barely a sensible meal), the whole yogurt and muffin thing, the beet diet, the grapefruit diet…yes, I did try starving myself a little (didn’t take), talked with a friend about bulimia (too grossed out), basically, you name it, I have tried it…to no avail! As a mother of three my body has changed and despite a very healthy diet and working out, I was not able to lose the weight and an overall look of that extra layer of bloat.

I am very fit and very strong, thanks to the best trainer in the world Rob Fisher. He couldn’t figure out why, despite all my hard work, nothing was taking the weight off. He once told me I was like a present waiting to be unwrapped...as soon as we could get rid of the “layer” and see the muscles underneath. He eventually sent me to see a nutritionist….Maria Dello. I was very skeptical, because I had been to a few nutritionists before and hadn’t had much success. Maria was lovely and told me from day one that she was going to “fix” me! I followed her instructions, ate what she told me to eat, take out all sugar, I didn’t have one bite of a dessert for months. Sure, I lost a couple of pounds but not much. Maria was adamant that she would figure this out, but I did think, here we go again…it’s not going to work. After some time she sent me to get blood work done and one of the tests was for heavy metals in my system. Turns out that I had severe mercury poisoning!! She then told me that once I rid my body of the toxin that I would lose the weight. I still didn’t believe her. Fast-forward a year- after detoxing my body, not eating any fish (boy I missed my sushi!!) taking the supplements she advised me to take, removing the mercury fillings (cavities-per her insistence) and continuing to eat healthy and exercise--I have lost my layer! I lost over 20 pounds and WOULD not and COULD not have done it without her. She “fixed” me. I still don’t entirely understand why or how, but I don’t entirely care (and I can eat fish now in moderation). I have been “unwrapped” and I can finally see the hard work I have put in….I feel great inside and out.

Maria Dello is an AMAZING nutritionist. She did not give up on me, even when I had. She taught me how to eat better and she really did figure out something that NO ONE had. She is wonderful and I will always be eternally grateful to her. She has a wonderful way about her and clearly is brilliant at her job. If you find yourself in a position where you can’t lose the weight, or where you need help learning to eat better, or anything in between you need to look no further than to Maria Dello, my nutritionist, and now, my friend. - Jennifer

When I got my diagnosis of metastatic cancer, at first I was shocked and numb. Then I cried a lot. Finally with the support of family and friends,we decided to attack it in a multiple approach: medicine,nutrition and spiritually After many recommendations,we chose a good oncologist. My son did research and referred me to Maria Dello ,an excellent nutritionist and I joined a prayer group and listened to tapes and read about the healing process. I believe that the changes in my nutrition helped my body tolerate and adjust to the rigors and harshness of chemotherapy. Maria changed my diet,eliminating sugar and dairy and added a lot of dark leafy vegetables.My body remained strong:I was able to exercise while carrying my chemo bag,and on the weeks off,I played tennis,my passion in life. My aim now is to create in my body an environment that is not conducive to the breeding of more cancer cells. Although I am not perfect,I have kept the changes that were introduced to me by Maria.

Maria has taught me so much about nutrition. I not only used your nutritional counseling on myself but I use it on a daily basis to help others. People are so uneducated when it comes to eating right. Even people who have been training for years have no clue about how important it is to have a solid nutritional plan. No matter how hard you work out, you will never be in shape unless you start from the inside. I have discovered that eating right can change your life.
