The Coach behind The Method.
I'm Coco Pierrel, aka The Healthy Weight Loss Coach. Calorie-counting, deprivation, meal plans, miracle pills have NO room in my coaching practice, but results DO.
I’m a Certified Holistic Nutritionist specialized in weight loss and gut health through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN) and The State University of New York (SUNY). I’m trained in over 100 dietary theories - Keto, Paleo, Raw, Plant-based, Whole30 and everything in-between.
Despite my expertise in all of these “diets”, I don’t believe that any of them works if you don’t truly understand how to feed your unique body for the long-term. That's why I developed Eat Shed Glow™, a personalized 6-week weight loss coaching method designed to empower clients to lose weight for good.
How does it work? I cut through all the confusion surrounding nutrition with practical tools and a personalized Roadmap that is designed for your particular lifestyle. Paired with weekly check-ins, 1:1 coaching, support via-text and 100% accountability; this method upgrades your current lifestyle to one that aligns with your weight loss goals - all without ever sacrificing the fun!
My Coaching Philosophy .
Diets don’t work.
If you landed on this page, you probably know it. You must have tried countless diets, counted points, tracked your macros, lost some weight, gained some more, blamed your lack of willpower, felt deprived, frustrated or guilty...and above it all, are SO confused about nutrition.
Let me reassure you that eating to achieve a healthy weight loss is NOT complicated. It’s been marketed as such, and we’ve all been targeted to buy into it instead of fixing the root cause of the problem - which is actually knowing how to feed our human bodies.
My coaching method, Eat Shed Glow™, is designed to empower you with practical tools, enabling you to know how to eat on your own and achieve healthy weight loss results. This approach allows you to enjoy life while paving your way to a healthy future.
There is no coming back from knowing how to feel and look good, and no injection can give you that (yes, I’m looking at you Ozempic).
My Story from Fashion to Nutrition.
I grew up in Beirut and moved to NYC in 2008 to pursue my career in fashion. After graduating from Parsons, and working at top fashion companies, I launched COCOBOUCHE; a hub for vintage designer costume jewelry. I got married to my French hubby and became a mom to my Lola in 2013, living in Gotham, the city of my dreams.
All was well until 2015, when I was diagnosed with a painful acute thyroiditis for which I was prescribed long-term steroids, followed by perioral dermatitis and rosacea skin issues that flared out of nowhere. Considering that I was leading a pretty healthy lifestyle, exercising and eating “clean”, I refused to now live a life on medications. If i wasn’t sick before, why was my body not ok?
I turned to mindfulness and nutrition for answers. By learning how to nourish my specific body with foods that don’t inflame it and making lifestyle changes to reduce my anxiety, my body healed. As a "bonus," I discovered new sensations such as brain clarity, skyrocketing energy levels and lost a couple of stubborn pounds my inflamed body held on to for years!
Experiencing firsthand the transformative impact of nutrition & lifestyle on my own health ignited a newfound purpose within me and fueled my commitment to embark on a coaching career in holistic nutrition.
Now, I am committed to empowering others in upgrading their nutrition journey with a healthy and sustainable approach to weight loss. I truly believe everyone deserves the knowledge to lead a healthier life in a vibrant body they feel comfortable in and can enjoy, martini included!
