Registered dietitian nutritionist Ilana Muhlstein absolutely loves food, second helpings, and feeling full. Growing up a dangerously obese child and teenager, she attended “fat camp”—a weight loss summer camp where portion sizes and exercise programs were closely monitored—from when she was 8 years old to her preteens. Constantly yo-yo-ing between shedding pounds and gaining it all back, she learned first-hand that fad diets and disordered eating do not work to sustain a healthy body and mind.
When she was 13, she realized she needed to take control of her own health. She lost 100 pounds through high school and college, became a registered dietitian, and earned a master’s degree in nutrition. She began leading weight loss seminars at UCLA, which she subsequently turned into a digital program, allowing her to help thousands of clients around the world. She brings an attitude of excitement and abundance to her consulting, hoping to help others see weight loss as a self-empowering journey of discovery.
