Question 1

How is RESTART® different than other programs?

Accepted Answer

RESTART® was created by a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and is therefore based on in-depth training in holistic nutrition. It's also a live, interactive class, so your questions can be answered in ways specific to your needs. RESTART® uses only REAL FOOD.

Question 2

Do I need to do anything in advance to prepare for the program to start?

Accepted Answer

No. I will be in communication with you prior to the beginning of the class to confirm time and location and give you a few tips about getting the most out of the class. The first session is all about preparation so you do not need to be ready to begin the actual eating plan until week two.

Question 3

What is the format of a RESTART® class?

Accepted Answer

Part education, part sugar detox and part support group (4-10 participants in size). I'll provide information in a casual discussion format with printed materials for your reference. Sharing is encouraged + opportunity between sessions for group communication (email, IG, or private FB groups).

Question 4

How much time a week do I need to set aside?

Accepted Answer

Each class is 90 minutes. Time spent at home will include shopping for and preparing your choice of delicious meals based on the approved food lists provided in the first session. In discovering how the food you eat affects your body, keeping a food journal may also take up some of your time.

Question 5

What if I have specific health issues, will those be addressed in the class?

Accepted Answer

This class covers foundational information on digestion, blood sugar regulation, and choosing healthy dietary fats, which goes a long way toward supporting any healing journey. At the same time I can help with more specific health challenges, but that level of support is usually best 1:1.

Question 6

I am a vegetarian, can I still do RESTART®?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if you are willing to eat eggs, dairy or small amounts of fish. Slight modification to the food lists to allow more legumes, rice and quinoa will make the program doable and still allow for adequate protein. Some instructors have reported beautiful successes with vegetarian parti

Question 7

What about individual dietary needs I might have?

Accepted Answer

RESTART® is designed as a set up for success. Many common inflammatory foods are omitted, so most people do quite well with the allowed foods. And we can work together to determine substitutes. Tips are given for the busy professional or inexperienced cook who may need faster/simpler recipes.

Question 8

I’m a rather shy person and not used to group programs. How big are the groups?

Accepted Answer

Groups are 4 to 10 people. The instructor facilitates the discussion and each person has an opportunity to contribute, be heard and supported, but no one is put on the spot if they prefer to just listen. After a couple of sessions, it tends to feel like a small gathering of friends.

Question 9

Is there a meal plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes meal plans are available for purchase, and there is an official RESTART® Cookbook and Pinterest Board. Search for recipes with the food list in mind. Part of the journey is to learn to look for appropriate ingredients and try new things, not only for our 3 weeks together but beyond!

Question 10

Q: Can I repeat the program in the future?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each time you do this program, it becomes easier and the healing goes deeper. There are people who repeat this program 2, 3 or even 4 times over the course of a year or more - finding the group dynamic and weekly accountability to play a big part in their success. "Alumni" have a discount rate.
