Testimony of the Day
“Dear Maria, I’ve been a fan of your recipes for more than a couple years. When I started a very popular low carb diet that got me to lose weight very quickly eating powdered foods (some ok and some barely palatable). After reaching within 20 pounds of my goal, I slowly went off track again and gained my weight back.
I had stumbled across your Pinterest page and was intrigued. But after reading some of your recipes, the uneducated me thought, “whoa, this woman has way too much fat in her recipes…not good!” But after buying your book, The Art of Healthy Eating (3 books in one), I read more and more that these “high protein, low fat, low carb” diets have it all wrong!
After a milestone birthday, I vowed I would embrace TMW (“The Maria Way”) and begin my journey of a keto adapted lifestyle. Two days after starting eating TMW, I’m down 9.8 pounds!
I realize this is drastic, but being a sedentary person in general, I promised to also exercise at least 4-5 days a week. Being a female, other factors played into the drastic results, but I can attest to the fact that all the research you’ve done has helped a great number of people, and in this very short few days of eating TMW, I’m feeling good, have energy, and am in ketosis, a fat burning mode that I could never even stay in while eating those pre-packaged crummy foods!
I suffer from IBS but so far, I’ve not had any issues! I have had asthma since I was 4 years old, so I’m curious to see how this lifestyle change will impact that as well.
Your book is nothing short of incredible! I have made several recipes and this book has now become my food bible and I it! I made the pancakes and the syrup recipe…both are out of this world! The bread recipes are fabulous and from an Italian girl, I had to find a means to incorporate both bread and pasta. Your alternative options work and are tasty! I haven’t been able to make the miracle noodles not taste so fishy or get the texture not to be so slimy, but I’ll try again soon using some new tips.
I introduced your book to a couple of nurses who now are curious about TMW, and both have purchased it!
I don’t have the daily menus yet, but if my weight loss stalls over the next few weeks, I will purchase a package of the plans to keep me on track.
I wanted to thank you for all your efforts putting your books together and the recipes…keep them coming!
I will report again soon…in another month or so to let you know about my progress.
Cheers to you and thank you for helping me change for the better!!!

Brand New Ketosis Class
Are you looking for the next step in your journey to health and weight loss? This class will not only inspire you, but you will get all the tools you need to take the keto diet to the max. If you have taken the SuperCharge your Metabolism class, this class is the perfect next step. It will answer all your question about this lifestyle.
Some tools you will leave with are:
1. What is ketosis and how to eat to get into ketosis. Also what methods to test for ketones and their pros and cons.
2. What are the common mistakes many clients have made (such as subtracting fiber from total carbs).
3. What are common “low carb” foods and even “low carb” veggies that take most clients out of ketosis.
4. What specific supplements will enhance ketosis and how much and when to take them. I will also share which ones I personally take and why.
5. Workouts with ketosis to help burn fat while building muscle. What time of day to exercise to burn fat and what time of day exercise can actually put ON fat and increase cortisol. I will also share my exercise regime.
6. Are you deficient in some common nutrients? I will have you do a test to see if you are low in zinc!
7. What medical tests to run if you are having a hard time losing weight even in ketosis. If a client of mine is having a hard time with weight loss, these tests will help get you on the path to the body you want!
8. Why I do not recommend Bulletproof Coffee or other high calorie drinks.
9. Answers to many of the questions about ketosis as a lifestyle. (Cholesterol and long term health, how to get your nutrients, vitamins and minerals and much more)
The Keto Life: Lose weight and feel great!
WHEN: Saturday February 21st from 4-6pm central

Hello:
I have a family event that day. Are you taping the class? Would it be possible for me to sign up for the class and receive a copy of the tape?
Monica
Yes, if you sign up for the webinar you will get the video afterwords. 🙂
Woo hoo!!! Just signed up!! Can’t wait 🙂
Awesome! Thanks!
I will definitely be signing up for the Webinar. It will be absolutely great. Thanks Maria for what you do for us. 🙂
Thanks!
Maria, if a group of us wanted to get together for the webinar, would you have a discount? Just wondering 🙂
I hope that makes sense what I am asking, rather than each individual pay, we go in as a group.
Also, how does this compare to your book? Any new information?
Lots of new info here that isn’t in the book. 🙂
Sure, just contact me above and I can work something out. 🙂
Thanks! Some of us are just going to come 🙂
Wish you lived right here in Toronto so I could drop right by your house for this kind of thing!
Lucky ducks who get to attend in person!!!
I was just going to purchase your book but now I think I’m going to attend this webinar instead. Decisions, decisions!!!! 😉
You will not regret it!!! Go for it!
I just purchased the 30-Day Advanced Keto Package on Monday. Will this be new information not included in that? Thanks!
Hi Maria,
Do you have plans to hold future classes on this topic this year? I am in my last trimester of pregnancy, and definitely not planning to lose weight for a while, but I would be interested in a future class. Thanks!
Yes, we will have this class at least once more this winter/spring. 🙂
I am glad to hear that you will have another class this Winter/Spring. My neighbor Ann and I will go! Ann and I were the ones who said it would be neat if you had a store with the food all measured out and a copy of a recipe to try instead of a restaurant. We both live in Roberts and we both take Yoga at Inspiring Actions.
I will be out of town on the 21st 🙁
Awesome! Can’t wait to meet you. 🙂
When you say 15% off services, does that include the 7 day keto cleanse package upgrade(from the consult)and the 30 day advanced package upgrade?
Not for upgrades, but yes for the keto cleanse. 🙂
Maria, how sweet of you to use my testimony! Also, 11 days in and I’m down 14.6 pounds! I feel great!!!
I bought your bundle packages. The basic and advanced so I’m wondering if this webinar would be beneficial or do I have that covered in the materials I’ve downloaded?
Thanks again!
Awesome! Way to go! There will be some new stuff covered so I think this will be beneficial. 🙂
Hello:) I was also wondering the same thing Stephanie asked. I have also just purchased the 30 day advanced keto package. Is this informaion included in there?? Have a great day!!
There will be new info in this so I do think it is beneficial. 🙂
I will be on a trip but will purchase video! Looking forward to more wonderful info!! I can forward my mailing address by email! Wish we lived close by as I would love to attend and learn first hand! Maybe you should do some cooking videos?;)
Thanks for the info!
Thanks! My nutrition packages have many cooking videos. 🙂
I attended the last one and I believe it is well worth your time.
Thanks!
Just signed up, wish I was closer for personal experience… Webinar will have to do. I live on the east coast, so the web would be from 5-7 EST, correct? Thanks for your expertise.
Yes 5-7 eastern time. Thanks! 🙂
Awesome! just signed up for the webinar – will there be a link sent out? or how does it work?
Yes, the email you got has all the instructions. The webinar info will be sent to the email you used to pay paypal the day before the class.
Is a keto life possible as a vegetarian?
Yes! I even have vegetarian meal plans in my Basic Packages. 🙂
Just signed up, Soooo looking forward to it!!!
Thanks!
I am looking forward to watching this with my daughter. I have lost 12 pounds in the last two weeks eating keto and I feel amazing! So many changes in such a short time 🙂
Awesome! Thanks!
can it be done vegetarian or vegan?
Yes, I even have a vegetarian package in my basic plans. 🙂
http://mariamindbodyhealth.com/my-services/
Oh, and is it a no go during breastfeeding?
It is fine for breastfeeding as long as you don’t loose significant weight while doing it. You store toxins in your fat cells. 😉
Thanks, Maria! Last question fro you regarding the basic vegetarian package – is there a lot of cooking and food prep needed? I have three kids under 3 and need simple, quick meal prep. Is there stuff you can make ahead? Any smoothies or on the go foods? Is vegetarian plan dairy and gluten free? Sorry to ask so many questions! 🙂
I think they are pretty easy to prepare, but everyone is different that way. They are gluten free but do have some dairy.
“Kelle and Krissy” from your Healthy Transformation Contest will be there! Can’t wait!
Awesome!! Can’t wait to meet you! 🙂
Will you, by any chance, discuss keto for people who do not wish to lose weight – but who want to do it for therapeutic reasons? Not to say they want to gain weight – not at all – but maintain.
Will you be discussing HORMONAL balance? How to BOOST estrogen? How to regulate thyroid – IF that is even possible with keto?
*****It’s only the metabolically-broken people for whom the total carbs – fibre doesn’t necessarily work – and even then it’s a maybe. For most people it works – as long as you aren’t including low-carb diet snacks/candies and BS food in this count*****
I have a nutrition package for maintenance or weight gain. This lifestyle is great for that situation. In this class I won’t be focusing on that but will talk about hormone balance.
As for total carbs, I have met many people that aren’t able to reach their goals by including too much fiber. Also, too much fiber elongates the intestines causing other problems.
Pardon my Yankee mentality – but what time is this on the east coast?
5-8PM. 🙂
All signed up!
Thanks!
If I have not taken the Supercharge Your Metabolism Class yet, should I do that before taking this one?
Nope, you can jump right in with this one. 🙂
Do you have access to the video afterward if you attend the class live or watch the webinar? If you are new to keto, I expect there will be a lot to learn. Thanks.
Yes, you get access to the video after the class. 🙂
Hi
I am thinking of attending the webinar but probably wont be able to make it, but I understand that a link to the webinar will be send to my paypal email. Will I be able to see the question and answers. I am referring to ” It is much more interactive than previous webinars as Craig will be answering all your questions in real time.” Also will the link be limited to one view or a limited time? Will I be able to download the webinar?
Thanks
You won’t be able to see the questions and answers from the webinar, but you will see those asked by the in person attendees. You can watch the video as many times as you like. 🙂
Thank you.
Maria will you be talking about measuring with Ketonix? I’ve been thinking about buying one and wonder if it would help it my weight loss journey. I’ve done so well on your plan but have been stalled for several months after losing 40 pounds. Can’t wait for this class and your new cookbook!
Yes, we will be covering that. Thanks! 🙂
will sign up for webinar. Have taken your other webinar would like to know how you tell in keto sis. I also have questions at times anywhere we can ask them.
I’ll be signing up for this class for sure! I will have to attend the Webinar, as it’s a bit of a hike from Atlanta to Wisconsin! Really looking forward to it! Thank you for putting all of this information together in one class!
Thanks!
Hi Maria – I’m thinking of purchasing your keto class but will have to watch the recording as I’m unavailable that day. Am curious to know if I can pre-submit my question to you or Craig so it can be addressed in the real-time Q&A period? I’d really love an answer for it!
Sure. You can also message us after you watch it if you have a question that comes up from the class. 🙂
Wait, so you’re hosting people in your home for a two hour class for only $30????????
🙂
Can I ask questions if I go to the webinar?
Yes, Craig will be answering all the questions on the webinar. 🙂
I would like to purchase a Ketonix before your class. Will you be covering the Standard or Sport? Does it matter which one I get? Thanks Maria!
I will be covering it in general. So shouldn’t matter which you get. 😉
http://empoweredsustenance.com/stop-sugar-cravings/ What do you think about her comments about sweetener?
She has no credibility and no science behind her claims. I commented with real data countering her claims and she deleted my comments. It think that says a lot right there. 🙂
Just wondering if Keto would be helpful for me. I have celiac and have eaten GAPS for years. I also have adrenal fatigue, chronic fatigue, and low thyroid. I was told that low carbing was killing my adrenals and thyroid and that I need to nourish these organs and that increasing my carbs (grain free ones) would give me more energy as I’ve got debilitating fatigue. Not sure if I should wait to eat Keto?
No, keto is great for healing adrenal fatigue. Just hold off from intermittent fasting until it is healed. 🙂
Do the webinar attendees receive the 15% off coupon too? Could you wait list me for your in person class? thx
Yes! Contact Craig here and he can see about the in person.
http://mariamindbodyhealth.com/contact_me/
just signed up for the webinar…. i started with this keto method a month ago but im stuck after loosing five pounds. I cant wait to hear all of the changing life info you will share. Thanks for caring and helping Maria.
Thanks!
I just bought my Webinar!!! So excited to be educated on my new lifestyle. Maria I have 3 of your books including Keto Adapted! These books have encouraged me to be the healthiest me! I started my journey the first of the year and hope to be at my goal by the BIG 40
Awesome! Thanks!
Looks great. Thrilled to see Ketosis knowledge being spread. Please take a look at our website to see how Ketosis is helping with Epilepsy care.
Sorry to be so ignorant. I just stumbled across you and I am intrigued to say the least. I am fat and need to lose weight, but more importantly my husband suffers from some serious GERD. He is on ppis and zantac. I have him seeing an oriental medicine/acupuncture specialist who has him on drops but they haven’t helped. The poor guy has diabetes and is also taking other meds and I desperately want him off and healthy. What is the best first book to get and where can i get it. I work nights so the webinar isn’t possible for me. I appreciate all suggestions. Thanks.
I have helped many clients in the same situation as your husband. My book Keto-Adapted would be a great place to start. 🙂
http://mariamindbodyhealth.com/my-books/
I just signed up for the webinar. Can’t wait to learn!!
Thanks!
I’ve been thinking about doing this for a while. I bought one of your books and it makes a lot of sense. I’ve been trying to loose wait for years eating the typical low calorie diet and I’m always hungry and a lose a little weight and then gain it back. The one thing that has been holding me back from jumping in and eating as you suggest is I do not have a gallbladder. Is it even possible for me to eat this much fat in my diet?
The common bile duct, which still remains after the gallbladder is removed, takes over a lot of the function of the gallbladder when it is taken out. That is why you can have your gallbladder removed and not totally fall apart by not being able to digest any fats. Coconut oil is very good for someone without a gallbladder because it doesn’t require bile acids for absorption. All MCT (medium chain tryglicerides) are like this. You can also use dandelion and ox bile to increase bile production. So eating this way is great for someone without a gallbladder.
i purchased attendance to the webinar, but I’m unclear what to do the day of the class. Do you just log on to the website? Will I need a code of some kind to gain access to the webinar?
You will get the webinar link and info by email the day before the class. 🙂
Hi Maria, Will this class be beneficial if I’m trying to find dairy free ways of feeding my kids? Will the principles and teachings still help me, I mean? I’ve almost finished your Keto-Adapted book and in there you suggest a gluten and dairy free diet for eczema sufferers. Both my kids suffer with eczema so am very keen to find things they’ll enjoy eating but am really struggling with the dairy free part as I was just starting to enjoy all of the full fat foods in all your recipes. Yesterday I received my new 3 in 1 cookbook of yours but again it’s full of lovely dairy goods. Will it affect them that badly if I just give them dairy IF they’re strictly on “Keto” food? Kindest regards xxx
Well, you could try grain free (all grains including gluten) for a while and see if that helps. Then if it still persists you could add dairy free. 🙂
Great, I’ll do that. Thank you very much M:-D
Maria,
I have just found your webpage and wish to start. Where would be the best place? One of your books? Please advise.
Thank you!
Kathleen H.
My book keto adapted would be a great place to start. 🙂
I just signed up for my first class/webinar with you but I also my not be available for part or all of it. I will definitely need the video . So happy you are offering it!
Awesome! You will love it. 🙂
I am 63 and overweight do you recommend anything specific in going through this journey – given my age? I have RA. But otherwise healthy
There may be some supplements that would be different, but the diet I would keep the same. 🙂
Just signed up for your webinar….very interested to learn more about keto…I’ve been following the ruledme 30 day plan..:)
Thanks!
Oops too late I was gonna sign up with Jamie..next time
I’m a little confused…..your link asks why Quest bars hinder weight loss, but I actually learned about Quest bars from you! I love them and use them as as a midday snack (2-4 net carbs) and my weight loss has picked up because of them! I just don’t have time to do all that baking cheesecakes and fudge so the Quest bars are my treat! Love the cookie dough and the coconut-cashew!
The total carbs are almost 30g. Too much fiber can kick you out of ketosis. 🙂
I live in England. Can all of your suggestions and dietary advice be used here? For example, quest bars? Never heard of them. Also, I won’t be able to buy any of your foods cos of shipping costs. Do you recommend I buy the book or the video to start me off on my frustrating weight loss journey?
Yes, my meal plan packages are mostly just good whole foods with a little protein powder and sweetener. 🙂
Hi Maria
I’m really looking forward to the class next week but can I just double check with you the time it’ll be for me here in the UK please? I have it as 10pm on Saturday, 21st Feb for 2hours. Is that right? Kindest regards. Bronwyn
Yes, 10PM your time looks correct. 🙂
I’ve signed up too Maria. I’m on the East Coast and have plans so I won’t be able to attend live but I’m looking forward to making a pot of tea and watching the webinar next day.
Thanks!
Will there be an opportunity to buy the webinar video after the 21st, or do we need to purchase it before then? Thanks!
You can purchase it before (purchase the webinar) and you when get the video as soon as it is available. Otherwise, we will post the video for sale as well.
Thank you for the reply, Maria! Will the purchase price of the video be the same/more/less? (Trying to work on a budget here.) Thank you!
The same. 🙂
Hi Maria: I signed up for the webinar tomorow but have not received the webinar link and info yet. I purchased it via pay pal. please let me know..
Please message Craig and he can help. 🙂
http://mariamindbodyhealth.com/contact_me/
Thank you again for that informative and helpful webinar. I was surprised to learn that one of the natural sweeteners yo useu is Lo Han Go. I have followed your advice and recipes and have been using a combination of Swerve/erythritol, stevia glycerite and sometimes Just Like Sugar, but had never incorporated Lo Han Go. I looked at your amazon store but was confused by some of the reviews on some of the brands you listed so I was hoping you would be willing to share which brand you use and in what ratio to Swerve/erythritol and stevia glycerite you tend to use it? Thank you again for all you do.
Thanks! Yes, we use Swerve, Stevia Glycerite and this lo han (Nativa brand).

I attended the webinar this past Saturday and I’m interested in purchasing one of the services you offer. I was considering the 30 day Advanced Keto Meal Plan. Is this option a good place to start?
That is a great place to start, and reach your goals. It has everything I know about getting you to your goals as fast as possible. 🙂
I purchased and watched the video this morning. So informative and interesting!! I have a question about vitamin K2 – what would be the dosage?
I like this one and take 100-200 mcg. 😉
http://astore.amazon.com/marisnutran05-20/detail/B009A6KFDC
Hi Maria, if I register for a platinum membership on ketoadapted will I have access to all the webinars, including this one, at no additional cost? Thanks so much.
