client success

“Lauren has created a program that is truly life-changing. After fifteen years of struggling with body image issues and disordered eating I feel free. My mental state has improved so much that I was able to come off of my depression medicine. Finding compassion for myself and recognizing the underlying thoughts surrounding a negative relationship with food has allowed me to heal both physically and mentally. Food is no longer anxiety producing and I can enjoy life fully and free of food preoccupation. There are truly no words to fully describe just how wonderful this program has been! ”

“Lauren—and the intuitive eating philosophy—has truly changed my life for the better. I felt stuck in a horrible relationship with food and exercise before starting this process, and through Lauren’s program, I have confronted my unhealthy habits, my rigid food rules, and the ways in which diet culture was keeping me trapped. Since starting with Lauren, I have found food freedom, an immense amount of joy and satisfaction in eating, and trust in my body. My loved ones have noticed how happy I am, how much less anxious I’ve become, and how healthy my new relationship with food is. I feel so lucky to have met Lauren and know that the skills I’ve learned will be long-lasting and helpful for the rest of my life.”

“I am almost 54 and have been food restricting and bingeing my whole life. thanks to Lauren I am free! I tried everything and every diet and Dr. and pill etc.... nothing worked until I found her! I am forever grateful to her.”

“Working with Lauren was such a blessing. I feel more confident making food choices for myself, I have stopped obsessing over what a scale or chart says, and I have stopped binge eating. What a huge change in 5 months— but these changes will last me a lifetime. She encouraged me to choose my health over anything else. Highly recommend her services. Thank you Lauren!!”

“Discovering Lauren and her program on Intuitive Eating has been life changing for me. Working with Lauren has helped me overcome close to 30 yrs of disordered eating which has led me to a better understanding of my body, my relationship with food, and my relationship with myself. I was able to communicate with Lauren regularly throughout the program. She was responsive and always there for me with a positive message and support. Through the Intuitive Eating program run by Lauren, she took the time to carefully assess where I was at with each step of the program, and knew when extra time was needed in order to move forward. Her caring nature and dedication to helping others are just two traits that make her such an outstanding dietitian.”

“I have held onto so much body shame and dysfunctional eating for so long, I didn’t know there would ever be another way of thinking. I have measured my food, my body, my weight and my self worth for YEARS. Then I started working with Lauren and my life changed. I really committed to the process she was taking me through. At times it was hard. I cried. I was anxious. I didn’t know how to feel okay with myself. But week after week Lauren is there with a smile and encouragement and she helped me love myself (and food) again. ”

“After years of trying many different workout and diet regiments I came to see Lauren. She took the time to learn my history of eating habits and the challenges I faced around my busy and unpredictable work schedule. One of my biggest problems was a longtime battle with insomnia due to coming home late from work and eating late which Lauren helped me to address. Through working with her I was able to end a horrible cycle of bad eating habits which was negatively affecting my energy levels, just by changing the way I thought about food and it’s affect on my daily performance. She is wonderful to work with, non judgmental and understands and works around the flaws of her clients which is her best quality. I highly recommend her to anyone trying to make a positive change in their lives when it comes to the way they approach food.”

“Six months ago I knew something wasn’t quite right with how I was taking care of myself but provider after provider just wanted to focus on weight. Finally I found Lauren and that really changed things for me. While I intellectually was familiar with some of the concepts we discussed in our work together, I really hadn’t incorporated them into my life much yet. It was really helpful to have a provider focus on my overall health and not weight. As we finish I feel like I take such better care of myself (and not in the icky diet culture way) I am sleeping well, my emotions more managed, my energy improved, my digestion is better, and I’m not longer ALWAYS hungry.”

“I have tried every diet fad under the sun over the past almost 15 years. Working with Lauren has helped me finally put my dieting goals and struggles aside. ”

“This experience has been the single most transformative experience of my life. I recommend it to anyone who wants to free themselves of the mental anguish of constant self monitoring and dieting and start living a fuller and happier life”

“Finding Lauren changed my life. I had never heard of Intuitive Eating (shoutout to the writers of the IE book - Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Reisch) before coming across Lauren’s Instagram page @feelgooddietician. Everything she would post spoke to me - it was like she knew my inner-most thoughts. Did I want to join her Group Coaching Program? That that seemed like a big commitment. I’m a mom of two young kids and a full-time teacher....how could I fit ANOTHER thing into my schedule? After consulting with Lauren, I decided to just give it a go. I had no idea how my life was about to change. The cost gave me pause - would it be worth it? Friends, the monetary cost of this months-long program is minuscule considering the LIFE-long impact it’s made on me.

I was worried that working with a thin-privileged dietician would be challenging in terms of relatability and comfort, but Lauren is not only vulnerable and open about her own journey, she also approaches her job with zero judgement. It made for such awesome and real discussions because there was no fear of criticism or trying to “fix” problems. Lauren doesn’t “fix” your problems; she equips and empowers you to discover your own strength and value. She also recognizes and vocalizes her thin-privilege and includes other fat-positive resources like Victoria Welsby to be a voice for fat-bodied folks. I so appreciated her self-awareness and inclusivity.

Like me, she’s a crier, y’all. When people share their pain or their triumphs, the tears show up! Lauren truly champions her clients on this journey because she herself has been on this journey. She gets it.

If you’re on the fence, just listen to me: do it. Join. You deserve to be here.

Lauren, thank you.”

“Diet culture robbed me of so much, but embracing the principles of intuitive eating with Lauren’s help and guidance has given me my life back. You have to be willing to do the work, but Lauren’s program breaks it down into bite-size pieces so I never felt overwhelmed or alone on this journey. I will always be grateful that I chose to invest in myself and signed up for this program. It is truly life changing.”

“Lauren’s approach to Intuitive Eating has truly changed my world. I no longer feel stress or anxiety surrounding food. My digestion has improved IMMENSELY. I’ve learned to trust my body again. I feel confident that my body will communicate with me to tell me what it needs, and when. I’ve learned that what works best for MY body, may look different than someone else’s (which is fine!). These are tools that I will carry with me for the rest of my life”

“Lauren has changed my life. I have spent 20+ years dieting and I finally feel free. I have learned how to eat freely and be satisfied without restricting. Since beginning the program, I have not binged or weighed myself. I don’t spend hours a day obsessing about food. Instead I am spending my time enjoying my life. Lauren does an exceptional job facilitating the group. She is able to seamless move through different topics, offering realistic tools and strategies. Lauren is approachable and knowledgeable. Throughout the whole program, you really feel how much Lauren cares about each participant. I cannot thank Lauren enough! I have the tools and strategies to continue on my path as an intuitive eater and I’m never going back to dieting! Thank you, Lauren!”

“This program has definitely changed my life!!! I have never had a healthy relationship with food or my body. No matter how skinny I was -It was never skinny enough. I have learned the tools to help me eat what I want to eat and how to eat. I’ve been taught the tools to start loving me for me. This was a much more difficult program then I thought it would be. I spent a lot of time on introspection-getting to the root of my problems. The questions I was given on each chapter made me look at myself in ways I have never done before. I learned that I don’t like so much-where I thought I used to LOVE them. I’ve learned how to trust my body and eliminate my anxiety around food. I’ve also gained alot-I gained a sense of who I am, I also gained a community of people who I know are just like me-working on themselves and their relationship with food. THANK YOU LAUREN!!!!! ”

“Lauren’s program offers a safe space to explore your relationship with food, breakdown unconscious messaging you’ve internalized, and build community with others who share with similar diet culture struggles and history. I can’t say this for a fact, but I truly believe that the cost of the program is more than recouped by the health you gain by breaking through the years of unhealthy thoughts and patterns we all develop. She provides a wealth of resources and gives of herself in her coaching...she truly cares, and you can feel it. Think about how much you’ve ever spent on diet foods/programs/equipment, and then run, don’t walk, to sign up, knowing you’ll never have to spend another dime on any of that again. Thank you, Lauren, for helping me to change my life. ”

“Lauren’s program is life-changing. She creates an environment where group members feel comfortable sharing personal experiences and challenges. The group was so supportive of each other, cheering on each other’s successes while also connecting over similar struggles. In group sessions, we were able to talk through some questions that had come up over the previous two weeks and work through them together as a group. The modules were helpful as a way of reflecting and setting intentions for continued growth. They helped me work through some long-held beliefs and thought-patterns, leading me to reframe my thinking. I had a one-on-one session with Lauren as well and I would highly recommend this. It was a wonderful compliment to the group program and allowed for some more personalized discussion and goal setting. I left the session with specific action steps and advice to incorporate into my life. Thank you, Lauren, for guiding me through this journey. I know that it has a great impact on my life and I am excited for what is to come next. ”

“Lauren Cadillac is an excellent facilitator during our biweekly meetings. She is non-judgmental, supportive, and has a wonderful sense of humor. She gently guides us towards more awareness, compassion, and self-love, and offers an opportunity for us to reset our thinking about dieting and what it means to be healthy. The curriculum she designed in Healthie.com is also excellent and I love the blend of reading the IE chapters, writing exercises in Healthie, and the group meetings. I also feel like she is a wonderful ally in inclusive culture regardless of various identities. As a person of color, I felt very comfortable and safe working with her. Considering all that is going on in this country, Lauren offered a safe space that included mutual respect for one another despite our differences. ”

“If you are on the fence about this program, jump over it. Go all in. It will completely change your mindset around food! Lauren is incredible. She’s supportive, down to earth, and super smart. She makes everyone feel comfortable and creates a safe space for people who are ready to get out of the vicious cycle of dieting and restricting. I used to have so much guilt around food and my body. This program has changed me for the better.”

“My only regret about the group coaching program is not knowing about it sooner. I can honestly say that I have broken up with diet culture for good, and have seen a huge improvement in my relationship with food. The small group setting offers a safe and supportive environment for learning and sharing. I am so thankful to Lauren and all of the other participants in the group.”

“Food is not an enemy anymore. Food holds no moral value for me anymore - I am not a good or a bad person based upon what I eat or what I weigh. Realizing this and severing this connection we all have about “you are what you eat” has been so so so good for my soul. This morning I pulled a Feel Good affirmation card and it was “I appreciate my body”. And I journaled about it, as I always do, and it was the first time in a very long time (maybe ever) that I didn’t feel the need to add “I am trying to...” before the affirmation. It had just become true for me - that I do appreciate and value my body - and that is a gift”

“I can’t thank Lauren and my group enough for the support they’ve given through the group program. I had read the IE book a few years back and had started the process of IE, but i was really stuck - I’d challenged a lot of my beliefs about food, but I was lacking in terms of actually getting satisfaction out of my food, finding joy in movement, accepting my body, and balancing out my nutrition. I was stuck in the middle of IE and wanted to get moving, but didn’t know how. Lauren’s group program helped show me where I’d done the work, and where I still needed to spend time. It gave me the tools to do that work, and the accountability to follow through. I have started moving more (because I’m doing things I like), eating a larger variety of foods (Because I’m actually thinking about what will make my body feel/work the best), and have started to genuinely accept my body. I LOVE the IE book, the principles, and how it has made me feel. Lauren’s group program really helped me get out of my rut and start moving toward the “finish line” (if there is such a thing) of IE. THANK YOU LAUREN! ”

“Lauren, you are AMAZING. You’re the first account that stuck out to me when on my explore page on Instagram. I followed, and my life has not been the same since. This program feels like some type of witch craft 😂 how have I been restricting and over exercising for 8 years, and somehow my maladaptive behaviors have, pretty much, disappeared in four months?? Like I said, I definitely still struggle but I’ve made more progress on healing my body image and relationship with food in the last 4 months than I have ever in my 25+ years on this planet (the majority of those years spent hating my body and my relationship with food). It feels so good to be able to eat, exercise, and dress without constant internal criticism. I’ll never be able to thank you enough. ❤️ ”
