This is not a diet or a plan, and we aren’t focused on losing weight. We don’t recommend weighing yourself. We’ll be focusing on non-scale wins — the way you feel, what your body is able to accomplish, and how much joy is present in your life. When you’re focused on fueling your body properly, this can contribute to weight loss for some people, while others who may have been under eating may gain weight. Others may simply stay the same.

When you’re giving your body the nutrients it needs and you have balance in your life, your body will find a weight where it feels it’s best. If you’re solely looking to lose weight, this is not the program for you. If you thought you wanted to lose weight but you’re open to trying a new approach for caring for your body, then we encourage you to try this program.

No. You will have access for 12-months after joining the Method program and for however long you are an active member after that initial 12-month period in our Expand Membership.

When you join, you’ll get automatic updates as they release during your active membership and you will be the first to hear of opportunities to upgrade to additional offerings.

This program is for anyone who is ready to shift from dieting and short-term goals and rather focus on long-term health and sustainable habits. This program is for those of you who would like something as personalized as possible so that your choices fit seamlessly into your life.

You may be thinking that you really don’t have the time to put into watching all of the videos and putting into practice what you learn. This was one of the most common things I’ve heard from my clients over the years and with myself as well. We’re all incredibly busy and none of us have any extra time to spare, so I designed this program with that in mind.

It’s completely go-at-your own pace and if you spend 1 hour a week watching the video lessons, you’ll have completed the program in just a few weeks. But you don’t need to finish the program to get started.

You could watch just one lesson and begin implementing what you learned and it’s broken up in a way where the lessons and actionable steps are so simple, they can take less than 5 minutes a day, making it nearly impossible for you not to begin making changes. You get to choose how you take this program, but just know I covered all the bases to meet you where you are now.

Make an appointment with one of our NS Coaches.

While the course is comprehensive and self-guided, some people may feel they need additional support beyond what this program offers.

When you go through the course, there are options for getting that additional support either through one-on-one coaching or a monthly accountability group.

This is not a diet or a plan! The Method is anti-diet and anti-plan, it’s a way of applying our 5×5 framework to your unique body and lifestyle. This is not for you if you want to follow a 30-day plan and diet. This is not for you if you don’t want to create long-term sustainable change.

This is not for you if you’re not willing to be coachable, to learn, to do the work, and to practice these lessons unique to your body and lifestyle.

I designed this to be drastically different than the plans or diets that you may be used to that force you into rigid rules and to dedicate all of your free time and mental energy into following the plan.

This program is the opposite of that, focused on making small, meaningful changes over time that make it incredibly easy for you to add to your life. Not only that, this method grows with you as your life changes.

We do offer a 1-month meal plan template within this program to help you understand how to create your own shopping lists, cooking plans, and meal prep ideas.

We’re flattered that McKel’s mindful eating method is resonating with so many RD’s and health care professionals. We don’t allow the work you see on Nutrition Stripped to be shared within your work, with clients, or reposted as it’s protected as our trademarked and proprietary method. If you are interested in keeping up to date if anything changes, please add your name to the list.

This is not for you if you’re relying on using this program to replace the 1-1 care of a health professional for a certain health condition that you have. This program is a fantastic program to: do by yourself if you’re not currently treating a health condition, or if you use in conjunction with your healthcare professional team if you do have a health condition.

Absolutely! The entire philosophy behind The Method by Nutrition Stripped is to make it completely unique to you and your lifestyle.

If you’re lifestyle and nutrition include vegan of gluten-free diets, then you can apply the principles you learn in this program to your unique body and nutrition needs.

Additionally, the Method does not specify or give you a specific way to eat, it’s all about educating you in order for you to take action for your body. We offer 1-1 coaching for Method Members if you want more detailed support and guidance.

This is a self-paced course, so you can go at any pace you’d like.

We recommend watching one section a week, which is about an hour long. Or we have the entire program as audio lessons so you can listen on your commute just like your favorite podcasts on the go!

As a Registered Dietitian led company, at Nutrition Stripped, our philosophy is rooted in educating you on how to make the best choice for yourself by nourishing with whole foods and mindful eating and our Foundational Five system.

We don’t offer calorie counts or macronutrient information for any of our recipes because, with our community and mission, it may hinder the true mission behind our recipes — to focus and learn to nourish yourself with nutrient-dense food, not by numbers.

Our food philosophy is also rooted in flexibility. Being able to make a plant-based recipe from Nutrition Stripped and add what you personally enjoy or what works for your lifestyle. With that level of flexibility, it would be impossible to calculate all the different ways to present the final dish.

We realize you may want to find out the nutrition information for the unique way you make our recipes, if so, here is what we recommend:

• copy the URL of the recipe you’d like to calculate and upload it into myfitnesspal.com
• input manually the recipe into nutritiondata.com to get an estimate of the individual nutrients in the recipe

Above all, that’s what makes our recipes on nutritionstripped.com unique more than any other website you’ll find on the internet! All our recipes teach you what’s in that recipe from individual nutrients to macronutrients and educate you on the bigger picture at hand.
