"I have struggled with IBS my entire life.
Every meal I ate would hurt my stomach and I would find myself running to the bathroom.
Arnell helped me learn what foods work for me and what foods to stay clear of.
After just a few days. . . I realized I could eat a meal and then go enjoy an activity.
I was no longer rushing to the bathroom!
I am so thankful for Arnell's dedication to working with me and really tailoring her approach to best fit my needs.
When it comes to eating, my life has drastically improved!
I plan to keep it up indefinitely."

"I had an excellent experience meeting with Arnell for the last several months.
At 75 years old I was diagnosed with numerous food allergies!
Great, how am I going to handle all of these food restrictions??
Then I was referred to Arnell, praise the Lord!
Arnell is a health coach that provides nutritional education in a laid back, non-threatening way.
She suggested, "let's take one food group at a time." We met every other week.
But I could text or call her anytime in between for help, assistance and support.
I can relate to being "a work in progress" with living without sugar, dairy, wheat, oats and other foods.
But Arnell guided me to new recipes, samples of snacks and new ways of thinking about food.
I am highly recommending Arnell Caris."

Thank you, Arnell."

"Every bite and every step is a choice, but that choice makes the difference between living well or not.
It's not about what you "can't" have, it's about what you choose to have.
When I look at where I started 40 pounds ago and how far I've come in 8 months, I am still amazed!
I knew I needed third-party accountability to reach my personal goals and my doctor-advised medical goals.
Arnell provided that encouragement and support.
Her coaching, recipes, fact sheets, and tips all contributed to my success.
Yes, I did the work, but she made it happen!
Her accessibility and responsiveness via e-mail is invaluable.
And now that my body has adjusted, it is easier to be healthy.
The benefits (the WHY, as she calls them)--feeling better, new clothes, compliments, improved appearance, more physical agility, reduced medications, to name a few--make it still worth it with every bite and every step!"
~Louise
"I enjoyed working with and learning from Arnell.
She's knowledgeable, motivational, and results-oriented.
She listened to me and openly addressed all of my thoughts and concerns.
I crave sugar much less now that I know how to better satisfy my appetite.
I'm thankful that I did the program and now have a healthier relationship with my body than ever before."
~ Michelle
"Arnell is a great coach!
Her background in counseling is helpful in navigating the entire body-mind connection.
I feel Arnell is very knowledgeable and is very well equipped to help others.
She's a patient, encouraging coach.
She listened to what was going on in my life, provided excellent feedback in the form of summaries and encouragement,
checked in with me between appointments, and sent recipes that were specific to my needs.
I now have hope for my future, understand what foods my body responds best to, and I'm no longer confused.
I highly recommend her!"

"I am full of energy and feel like myself again!
I am eating better, losing weight, and feeling better.
Arnell gave me ideas and recipes to help me reach my goals.
I kept track of the foods I ate and how they made me feel.
She did a great job of helping me eat healthier and feel so much better!"
