Success doesn’t just happen — it’s built one “show up” at a time.

Whether it’s sticking to your meal plan, getting in movement, showing up for follow-ups, or simply choosing you today… it all adds up. 💪🏽

Your transformation starts the moment you decide to show up — consistently, intentionally, and unapologetically.

Afraid to start another weight loss plan?
You’re not alone. So many of my patients walk in saying, “I’ve tried everything, and nothing works.”

But here’s the truth 👉 Every ‘failed’ attempt isn’t a failure — it’s feedback.

Each experience teaches you something about your body, your triggers, your habits, and what doesn’t serve you.

That’s valuable information — and it’s how we build a plan that finally sticks. 💜

At Gut Theory Total Digestive Care, we turn those lessons into results through:
✨ Evidence-based, personalized weight management plans
✨ Nutrition + lifestyle strategies built for real life
✨ Non-invasive procedures for added support
✨ Ongoing accountability with a quadruple board-certified physician

Because the key isn’t perfection — it’s consistency, compassion, and a clear plan.

💬 Drop a 💜 if you’ve ever felt nervous to start again — you’re stronger than you think.

Trainees and colleagues often reach out to discuss my path and this week I met with 2 talented young women who are pretty clear on what they want early in their careers! I discussed with them the hard work, dedication, successes, but also the struggles!

Every time I tell my story I recognize just how insane it sounds to decide you want to start a practice right out of fellowship…. I had a lot of nerve 🤭 But here we are 5 years later 💜

To all the docs, business owners, bosses - drop your advice, struggles, achievements below so we can all learn!

Be sure to tag a friend or share with anyone starting a new journey!

Let’s talk about binge eating — without the shame.

If you’ve ever felt “out of control” around food, you’re not alone (and you’re not broken). Binge eating can stem from so many places:

😣 Anxiety or stress
💭 Emotional eating patterns
⏰ Skipping meals or over-restriction
🧬 Genetics and biology
…and more.

At Gut Theory Total Digestive Care, we look deeper than the surface. Because binge eating isn’t about willpower — it’s about understanding your body, your triggers, and building tools that help you feel at peace with food again. 💚

Our goals together:
🥗 Create balanced, satisfying meals
🧘🏽‍♀️ Reduce stress and emotional triggers
🧠 Reframe the way you think about food
💬 Build sustainable, guilt-free habits

✨ Healing your relationship with food starts with understanding it — not judging it.

💚 Save this post as a reminder: you can have structure and freedom around food.
💬 What’s one thing that helps you reset after a stressful day?

At Gut Theory Total Digestive Care, I see it every day — people carrying not just extra weight, but extra pressure, guilt, and confusion about what “healthy” really means.

✨ No shame. No fads. Just real science, real results, and a team that’s here for YOU.

One-size-fits-all? Not at Gut Theory!

At Gut Theory Total Digestive Care, we know that what works for one person’s gut, schedule, and lifestyle might not work for you—and that’s the point. Your nutrition, your metabolism, your story… they’re all uniquely yours. 💜

That’s why our approach is 100% personalized:
✔️Custom nutrition plans (not cookie-cutter templates)
✔️Tailored medication + procedure options
✔️Continuous follow-up + accountability
✔️Root-cause focus—because your gut tells your story

✨ You deserve a plan that actually fits you—not one that tries to shrink you into a box.

💬 Drop a 💜 if you’re tired of “just eat less and move more.”
👯‍♀️ Tag a friend who’s ready for something that actually works.
