About The Skinny Chick

Joanna

JoannaI do not promote the latest pill or diet. I am a teacher by trade. I am a wife, a mother and a breast cancer survivor. Recently I became a Nutritionist.

I have never been over weight, in fact, people have always said I was skinny but I was never "healthy". And in 2005, at the age of 36, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. As you might imagine, my life took a huge turn at that point. My husband and I started researching everything we could about breast cancer.

More and more we found that food had a lot to do with health, in fact, we realized that “YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT”. So we went crazy and completely overhauled our family’s diet. We eliminated dairy, sugar and any animal products (over time we put back cold water fish and the occasional organic turkey).

The results were amazing! I lost the extra weight I was carrying around since I was pregnant with my children. My complexion, energy and mood all changed for the better.

I’m so amazed with the results that I want to tell everyone but I have realized, sadly, that I can’t just run up to people on the street and tell them I can help them with their weight or health issues. It doesn’t go over very well.

I want to help you loose weight, get healthy, or even get pregnant and we can do it by trashing your kitchen!”

So I went back to school and became a Nutritionist and have designed Skinny Chick so that you can seek me out and I can come to you - virtually or in person! Read the information on my web-site and overhaul your family’s diet like we did, or e-mail me to set up an appointment and I can do it all for you (within the Greater Victoria area).
I believe that if you have health, weight or fertility issues that I can help you simply by helping you to change what you eat! No diets or counting calories, just eating lots of good food.

Thanks for checking me out!
