The Story Behind Keto Reset by Shine™
I lost 110 pounds using this method. That is not a headline. That is the reason this program exists.
Where Shine™ Began
I was not a nutritionist when I started. I was a woman who had tried every diet, every reset, every 30-day challenge. I went from 220 pounds to 110 pounds not because I found the perfect program but because I built one. I studied the research, applied it to my own body, documented what worked, and eventually understood why keto works differently for women than it does for men.
The hormonal piece is what most programs miss entirely. They are built on research conducted predominantly on men. When a woman’s insulin fluctuates, when her cortisol rises, when her progesterone drops before her period, her body is doing something completely different than a man’s. Keto applied without understanding this does not work, or works temporarily and then stops.
Why I Built This Instead of Buying Something Else
Every guide I found was either too basic or too clinical. Every coaching program was either too expensive or too generic. None of them accounted for PCOS. None of them explained why the keto flu happens and how to prevent it completely. None of them addressed what to do when the scale stops moving but your clothes keep getting looser.
So I built what I needed. Then I realized other women needed it too.
What Shine™ Is and Is Not
Shine™ is an educational wellness program. It is not medical advice and it does not replace your doctor. What it is: a complete, science-backed methodology designed around how women’s bodies actually work, with real human support built in. Not a PDF you download and forget. Not a Facebook group with 10,000 strangers. A structured program with check-ins, adjustments, and accountability.
The Corporate Side
In 2024 I began delivering the Shine™ methodology to corporate teams. The content that helped me lose 110 pounds is the same content that helps professional women manage energy, reduce inflammation, and show up differently at work. Organizations choose Shine™ Corporate Wellness because the methodology is rigorous enough to satisfy their clinical staff and accessible enough for everyone else.
