“Follow this plan, it works!”
And, maybe it does..
..for a short period of time.
Then what?
My Issue(s)
I’m not sure about you, but I’m a pretty curious individual!
I like to ask “why?” until I drill down pretty darn close to the root cause/reason for anything.
(Probably due to my extensive manufacturing background in LEAN Engineering & Continuous Improvement)
So, when someone tells me to do something because “it works” - I’d like to know why.
The problem is, the “why” is omitted in most of these “diets,” leading to:
Blind Following
Lack of Sustainability
Additional, Unnecessary Cost
Unspecific Approach
..just to name a few. Let’s briefly explore!
Blind Following
Maybe it’s peer pressure? Maybe it’s the testimonials you’ve seen? Maybe it’s because you’re desperate for change?
NONE OF THOSE ARE AWFUL REASONS TO START!
BUT, knowing “why” you’re starting & “why” “it works” will greatly increase your ability to be compliant & succeed.
Without those, you are following a program with blind trust, hoping you get the same results as the testimonials without understanding the reason behind the program and how those people achieved those results.
At E3 Nutrition, this is addressed in our PILLAR of Education. We want you to understand why we do what we do. This leads to - Sustainability!
Lack of Sustainability
Without having intrinsic motivation (your why) & the knowledge behind the science of the program, sustainability disappears!
Through our Educational approach, we aim to Empower you (our second PILLAR).
Giving YOU the knowledge of the “why” and the “how” will Empower you to continue on without us (seriously, that’s the goal).
Again, though some “diets” work, they only work for a short period of time - either because they aren’t meant to be sustained, or as mentioned, information is withheld.
This leads to my third issue - Additional, Unnecessary Cost.
Additional, Unnecessary Cost
If the results are temporary, and/or you don’t understand the why or how, you have to keep coming back for more.
And THAT is where they get ya!
Now, you’re left in a trap - if you want to keep the results, you have to keep paying.
We don’t want that for you.
If we are founded on Education that Empowers and Elevates (our third PILLAR), we would be FAILING if you kept having to sign up with us.
Do we lose out on constant cash flow and team member retainment? Sure.
But, to us, personalized ethical coaching that gives people a healthier life is the most important.
This leads me to my last issue - Unspecific Approach.
Unspecific Approach
Most “diets” are generalized, base templates that don’t cater to your specific needs, wants, goals, lifestyle, or training type.
If that’s the case, how do you know that what worked for the testimonial is going to work for you?
Maybe it will, but most likely, doing exactly what they did isn’t going to yield the same results.
Instead, having a detailed approach specific to YOU will more likely produce better results.
We keep our Coach: Team Member ratio pretty small to ensure we are able to meet and/or exceed every Team Member’s individual goals. We want to learn what works and what doesn’t for YOU and help YOU also come to those same realizations.
Why? To create Sustainability.
Educate. Empower. Elevate.
This is our WHY. This is WHY we do what we do and HOW we do it.
“We want to give you the complete Nutritional Freedom that traditional dieting can’t.”

We hope you have had a good Holiday Week! See you next time.
