arin Adoni is the founder of online weight loss programs specializing in healthy lifestyle and behavioral changes. Before creating her brand, Karin worked as the COO of Eat Good for three years. She then became the head nutritionist of Reebok Sports Club in NYC. Working in the nutrition field for more than a decade, Karin has a large celebrity clientele and recently released her own cookbook. What inspired you to be a nutritionist? “As a teenager I suffered from multiple eating disorders including anorexia. I fell into a vicious cycle of self-hatred. After a decade of misery, a moment of clarity pushed me to change my life. My transformation made me realize I am here to make a difference and push people toward their best self. I wanted to help people’s lives, to motivate them to achieve their goals and learn to enjoy the process. I am not what happened to me. I am what I choose to become.” What is the philosophy of your practice? “Food is one of the greatest pleasures in life, and healthy eating doesn’t have to change that. To eliminate bad habits, we must introduce positive lifestyle changes and commit to them. I place a big emphasis on accountability throughout my program. My team and I are always here to help, making sure our clients know they are not alone.” What are your specific areas of expertise? “I teach how to reduce the intake of refined sugars and processed foods, replacing them with whole foods that regulate weight and nourish the body. My 21-day detox gives a quick introduction, and my incredible 90-day transformation program provides more in-depth education.” How does your practice differ from others? “My programs are not diets; they are a way of living. We provide the tools, education, support and community to make becoming your best self possible.”
“I am not what happened to me. I am what I choose to become.” 86

Do you take a holistic approach to your practice? “Yes. You need to learn to love who you are as a whole—mind, body and soul. I want all of my clients to feel their best, which goes beyond their physical state. The support and motivation my team and I give my clients directly influences their long-lasting results.”
