Metabolic health is the foundation of good health.

90%+

of American adults are metabolically unhealthy. Most have never heard it called that.

Weight that will not move, mid-day energy crashes, brain fog, cravings that arrive at three in the afternoon — these are not four separate problems. They are signals that your body has stopped using energy the way it is supposed to.

Metabolic dysfunction is what sits underneath. It builds quietly over years, and diets that only cut calories tend to make it worse: you lose muscle along with fat, your metabolism slows further, and the weight comes back with interest.

The part almost nobody is told: metabolic health responds to change. That is the entire point of working in phases instead of dieting.

Energy crashes

Blood sugar spikes and drops all day, so you run on caffeine and sugar to get to dinner.

Weight that resists

Especially around the middle. Visceral fat is the metabolically active kind, and it is the hardest to reach.

Brain fog

Focus fades in the afternoon. Your brain is downstream of how well your body handles fuel.

Cravings and poor sleep

Hunger hormones drift out of rhythm. Bad sleep makes cravings worse, and cravings make sleep worse.

TrilivyThe Trilivy three-phase system

Rebuild your metabolic health.

Instead of managing symptoms, we work through three phases that get your body using energy, burning fat, and holding onto muscle the way it should. I walk each phase with you.

Reset phase
01

Reset

Reverse metabolic dysfunction and lose weight the right way — fat, not lean mass. This is where the scale finally moves and stays moved.

What happens in Reset
What you do

Six small meals a day — five Fuelings plus one Lean & Green meal you cook yourself. You eat every two to three hours, so you are never running on empty.

What changes

Your body stops depending on a constant drip of quick sugar and starts reaching for stored fat. Energy steadies out first, usually within the first couple of weeks.

How long

Average weight loss on the Reset Plan is 12 pounds, and clients are typically in this phase around 12 weeks. Your starting point decides your pace.

My part

Daily check-ins by text, a grocery list before you start, and troubleshooting through the first two weeks, which are the ones that matter most.

Refine phase
02

Refine

Improve metabolic flexibility and body composition. We add movement, build muscle, and widen what your body can handle without backsliding.

What happens in Refine
What you do

Food volume comes up in steps, more whole-food meals come back in, and we get deliberate about protein and movement.

What changes

Metabolic flexibility — your body handles a wider range of meals without derailing. Body composition keeps improving even when the scale slows.

My part

We adjust the plan as your body changes, and we practise the situations that usually undo people: travel, restaurants, holidays.

Renew phase
03

Renew

Optimize and hold it. Maintenance habits, long-term vitality, and the confidence that you can keep this without me hovering over you.

What happens in Renew
What you do

Build a rhythm you can hold without tracking every bite — sleep, hydration, movement, and meals that fit the life you actually have.

What changes

The work moves from effort to default. This is the phase most programs skip, and the reason most weight comes back.

My part

Check-ins spread out as you take the wheel. You drive; I stay reachable for as long as you want me there.

Getting started

Three steps, and you are moving.

We build long-term habits that create real, lasting results.

01

Apply

Complete a quick health assessment so I understand your goals, your lifestyle, and what you need to lose.

02

Get your plan

You get a simple, structured plan built for your body — one that promotes steady weight loss, resets your metabolism, and builds healthy habits.

03

Transform

Follow the process daily and become a healthier, stronger, more confident version of yourself. I check in the whole way.

The breakthrough bio-approach

What a metabolic reset actually does

Reignite your metabolism, burn fat more efficiently, and restore your body's natural balance — with a simple, sustainable approach to nutrition and lifestyle.

Start my assessment →

Reignite metabolism

Shift from a sugar-dependent burner to an efficient fat-oxidizing engine.

Burn fat efficiently

Train your body to reach stored fat without giving up lean muscle.

Restore natural balance

Stabilize the hormones behind cravings and get your rhythm back.

Sustainable, not extreme

Real, solid chew food. No starving routines and no synthetic drops.

A day on the plan

What eating actually looks like.

No fasting windows to white-knuckle, no shakes-only cleanse, no weighing every gram. In Reset you eat six times a day, roughly every two to three hours.

Five times a day

Fuelings

Portion-controlled and nutritionally balanced — built to hold blood sugar steady and keep protein high while you are in a deficit. Around a hundred options: bars, shakes, soups, brownies, pancakes, mac and cheese.

Once a day

One Lean & Green meal

You cook it. Five to seven ounces of lean protein, three servings of non-starchy vegetables, and healthy fat. This is a real meal at a real table, which is why the plan survives contact with family life.

Every day

Water, sleep, movement

Sixty-four ounces of water, a sleep target we set together, and movement that fits your body today. These are not extras. They are the difference between losing weight and changing your health.

No macro counting, no calorie app, no points to track.

Vegetarian, gluten-conscious and diabetes-aware options exist — we sort that before day one.

Trilivy’s system may be HSA/FSA eligible. Check with your provider.

Clinical results

Results you can feel, see, and measure.

In a randomized controlled trial of the Reset 5 & 1 Plan, here is what participants recorded at sixteen weeks.

14%Reduction in visceral fat — the fat around your organs that drives metabolic risk.
98%Of lean mass retained. You keep the muscle that keeps your metabolism working.
16 weeksFrom start to measured change. Not a lifetime of white-knuckling.

Losing fat while holding onto muscle is the whole game. Any diet can drop pounds; most take muscle with them, which is exactly what leaves your metabolism slower than when you started.

Arterburn LM, Coleman CD, Kiel J, et al. Randomized controlled trial assessing two commercial weight loss programs in adults with overweight or obesity. Obes Sci Pract. 2019;5(1):3-14. Individuals on the Reset 5 & 1 Plan experienced a 14% reduction in visceral fat and retained 98% of lean mass at 16 weeks.

Why a coach

Coaching is not an add-on. It is the multiplier.

In the same clinical trial, people with coaching support lost far more than people who ran the plan alone. Same food, same structure, different outcome.

10xMore weight loss with a coach than going it alone.
17xMore fat loss with a coach than going it alone.

Daily check-ins by text

Not a portal, not a chatbot. You text me and I answer. Most of coaching is catching the small slip before it becomes a week.

Grocery aisle and restaurant help

Send me the menu. I will tell you what to order. The plan has to work at a birthday dinner or it does not work.

Adjustments as you change

What worked in week two is wrong by week ten. Your plan moves as your body composition moves.

Someone who has done it

I lost over fifty pounds and kept it off. I am not coaching from a textbook, I am coaching from the road I already walked.

TrilivyThe science behind it

Physician-founded. Studied for decades.

The system I coach was not invented for a marketing campaign. It rests on three parts that only work together, and on nearly half a century of clinical research.

01

Science & products

Nutrition engineered for a metabolic job, not just a calorie number. Developed by physicians, scientists and dietitians.

02

Coach & community

The human layer. One coach who knows your name, plus a community of people in the same phase you are in.

03

Habits of Health®

The behavioural system underneath the food: sleep, hydration, movement, stress, mindset. What makes the result stick.

The science of Metabolic Synchronization®

Most plans pull in different directions: one cuts calories, another adds exercise, a third tells you to sleep more, and none of them are timed to each other. Metabolic Synchronization is the idea that nutrition, movement, sleep and habit change have to be sequenced so your body’s energy use, fat burning and muscle preservation move together.

Practically, that is why the plan feeds you every two to three hours instead of asking you to endure a fasting window, and why we do not pile on hard training during Reset.

Three phases, not a diet with an end date

A diet has a finish line, which is exactly the problem: whatever you did to lose the weight stops, and the weight comes back. Reset, Refine and Renew are built as a handover. Each phase gives you more control and asks less of me.

By Renew, the goal is that you own your health rather than rent it from a program.

Nutrition on a metabolic mission

Fuelings are not diet food with a smaller number on the label. They are formulated to hold blood sugar steady, deliver enough protein to protect lean mass, and cover micronutrients while you are eating less than you burn. That combination is why the clinical trial showed 98% lean mass retention rather than the muscle loss typical of aggressive dieting.

Habits of Health®: the part that outlasts the plan

Weight loss is a skill; keeping it is a set of habits. We work through sleep, hydration, movement, stress response and mindset in small, sequenced changes rather than a total life overhaul on day one.

This is the piece I care most about, and it is where my fifty years of leading worship shows up in how I coach. Mind, body and spirit are not a slogan to me.

Community, and why doing it alone rarely works

The trial numbers say it plainly: support produced 10x more weight loss than going it alone. You get me daily, and you get access to a community of clients further along the same three phases — people who have already solved the problem you are hitting this week.

Is this safe with my medications and conditions?

Trilivy recommends you speak with your healthcare provider before starting and throughout your journey, and I hold to that. Plenty of my clients coordinate with their doctor as they go — several have had medications reduced by their physician as their numbers improved.

Tell me what you are managing in your assessment and we will build around it.

Mind, body & spirit

Health is more than the number on the scale.

I have led worship for over 50 years, and that shapes how I coach. We work on nutrition, hydration, sleep, mindset, habits, and your spiritual well-being. When mind, body, and spirit line up, that is when lasting change happens.

My goal is simple: help you become the healthiest, strongest, most confident version of yourself — so you can fully live out your purpose.

Questions people ask me first

Before you apply.

If your question is not here, put it in the assessment. I read every one myself.

Do I have to give up real food?

No. Every single day includes a Lean & Green meal you cook: lean protein, non-starchy vegetables, healthy fat. The Fuelings fill the gaps between so you are never starving by the time you get to it.

How fast will I lose weight?

Average weight loss on the Reset Plan is 12 pounds, and clients are in the weight-loss phase for about 12 weeks on average. Your own pace depends on your starting point, your history and how consistently you run the plan. I will not promise you a number I cannot control.

Is this a medication or injection program?

No. No drugs, no injections, no synthetic drops. Structured food, daily habits, and a coach. If you are currently on a weight-loss medication, tell me — the plan can support you, but that is a conversation to have with your doctor in the loop.

What does it cost?

Your cost is the food. Coaching from me comes with it — I am compensated by Trilivy, not by you, so nothing about my advice depends on selling you more. I will walk you through exact plan pricing on our first call, and many clients find the grocery savings offset a good part of it.

What if I travel, work nights, or eat out constantly?

That describes most of my clients. Fuelings are shelf-stable and portable, and we plan restaurants ahead rather than hoping for the best. Send me a menu and I will tell you what to order.

Do you coach in person?

I coach nationwide by phone and text. Clients in South Carolina, North Carolina, Michigan and beyond. You do not need to live near me for daily accountability to work.

What happens once I have lost the weight?

Refine, then Renew. That is the part most programs never build, and the reason most people gain it back. We spend real time on maintenance habits before you are on your own with them.

What actually happens after I submit the assessment?

I read it and call or text you personally within 24 hours. We talk about where you are, what you have already tried, and whether this is right for you. There is no sales team and no pressure — if it is not a fit, I will say so.

Your metabolism is not broken. It needs a reset.

Fill out the assessment and I will reach out personally within 24 hours. No pressure, no sales team — just a conversation about where you are and where you want to be.
