Hi! I’m Leanne

Nutrition educator + keto enthusiast. I want to live in a world where every woman loves her body, nourishing fats are enjoyed at every meal, and the word “restriction” isn’t in the dictionary.

Praise

After reading your blog for about a year I finally bought your book, The Keto Diet, and started eating keto almost 2 weeks ago. I’m 57 and fearful of Alzheimer’s, and my mind seems clearer and more focused. Yesterday, I found myself licking my salad plate to get all the yummy fat off of it! Thanks so much for all your info and help!

Throughout my keto experience, Leanne has been a powerful support system. Leanne taught me to give myself grace, to keep a good perspective, to listen to what my body telling me and to embrace my own individual keto experience. Her approach to life, keto, and health is one of balance, breaks the diet dogma, and really encourages people to be the expert of their own body. Leanne has inspired and empowered me to live my best life, to find what works for my body and stay focused on listening to the voice within.

I found your podcast just before I decided to try Keto. I was on my way home from a weekend in Boston and was driving back to NJ (February 2017) I listed to your podcast the entire ride and not only did I learn so much about Keto but I was fully inspired. I continue to eat Keto and listen to every podcast every week; it continues to inspire and teach me. I have lost 17 pounds and truly upped my game when in comes to my work outs — keto (and Leanne) have changed my life.

— Amy Jo

I’ve been devouring your No Sugarcoating podcast; I love you and Amber. I’m about halfway through the Fat Fueled Audiobook. I truly appreciate Leanne’s positive, “listen to your body” message. Please keep doing what you are doing. I am feeling so much better eating this way.

— Winni

Found you when I needed you most. I have been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, PCOS, sleep apnea, and many other health conditions. Started watching all of your videos and listening to podcasts and I have been eating keto for almost 2 months now. I have my own period after never having one EVER without birth control and I feel amazing! Thank you for everything that you do!

— Jessica

I have been an endurance athlete for 12 years now, a vegan for 3.5 years, and am now starting my Fat Fueled journey. I have found your recipes immensely helpful as I train for Ironman distance triathlons. I don’t have to eat as much during the workout, and I avoid the horrible gut-bombs and sugar fermentation bloat that so many athletes suffer from. I consider your recipes vital to optimal performance and stalk your website regularly to see what new brilliance shows up!

— Amanda

Just want to thank you and tell you how much I appreciate the way you speak and write about health and life! I’m relatively new to keto but have been Paleo-esque for awhile. I came across your name after seeing your books on some Paleo sites and hearing your interviews on other keto and health podcasts. I now look forward to every one of your own podcast episodes and blog and Instagram postings. Thanks for keeping things health oriented with a practical and nourishing approach for women! I love learning from you!

— Sarah

I’m new to Leanne’s version of the ketogenic lifestyle and I’m feeling better every day! I was starting to look and feel my age, and now I feel like my 30-year-old self and back in my sexy clothes! Life is good!

— Janice

I have struggled with being overweight, autoimmune symptoms, PMS, migraines, insomnia and depression my whole life — and YOUR approach to keto diets is really helping me to answer so many of my questions about my health. My family has multiple food sensitivities (grains, dairy, corn, nuts, soy, nightshades, fructose) and we absolutely love your fat bomb ice cream (it’s scoopable!!!!) and focaccia bread recipes. I’ve adapted your focaccia bread recipe (to work with Seed Cycling for hormone imbalance) and I use it to make berry upside down cake, mexican “cornbread,” olive cheese bread, strawberry short cake, sandwich bread, birthday cake, and more! Thanks so much for all your research and hard work experimenting with recipes — it has really expanded our fun food horizons and tremendously improved our health and quality of life!

— Chantelle

Deciding to go ketogenic was one of the best decisions I made. The keto lifestyle has not only helped me get closer to my goal weight, but it has given me an abundance of energy, has boosted my confidence, and has helped me overcome depression.

— Emily

I have been subscribing to the meal plans for a few months now, and I just have to say, THANK YOU for offering this service. It is everything I ever wanted in a food plan and more. I love that I don’t have to think about my grocery list or what I am going to eat because it’s all already laid out and all I have to do is shop and cook! For me, it is just perfect.

— Ashley

I’ve been a yo-yo dieter all my life. Leanne finally showed me a way to eat that’s sustainable and real and doesn’t make it seem like I’m in a box. I haven’t even weighed myself since I started because she’s inspired me to make this about how I feel and my health and not how I look or what I weigh! Her way of eating and compassionate and accepting approach has been like a beacon of light to me and when listening to her videos and podcasts, I find that it is not only her knowledge but her personality and sense of humor that is so inspiring!

— Rachel

Leanne, I have learned so much from you! My three sisters, mom, and I are all eating your way of keto now. Because of your podcast I feel like we can all have a healthier relationship with food and a healthier view of what we want for our bodies. So thank you thank you thank you for who you are and what you do!!!

— Amy

I have had issues with my menstrual cycle and being on oral contraceptives. I saw my physician and she is supportive of my whole food keto lifestyle and is supportive of me going off hormones for birth control. I want to thank you for being so open about your experiences and inspiring me to find my path. I think I’m on the right path now to find what works to be my best self.

— Amanda

Leanne, I just wanted to thank you for being such a positive influence. I have been loving keto for the past year and a half, but just figured out quite recently that what matters most is that I haven’t been loving myself. I need to get to a place where my worth is not based on a number or what I did or didn’t eat in a day. YOU are helping me with that! I’m learning about myself, what works for me and learning to love myself in the process.

— Amy
