Toledo's Top Weight Loss Program

Danette brings a Bachelor of Science degree in Dietetics from Michigan State University to the Profile team here in Toledo and has been with our team for over two years. She is currently the Assistant Manager at the store and working full-time. Her coaching style is uplifting, motivating, inspiring, and understanding. She provides tough love and accountability as well. “I took some time off from work for a few years to stay at home then re-entered the workforce. I joined the team after working in hospitality (front desk at a hotel) and working as a personal trainer and group fitness instructor for the YMCA after my time at home with my family. I chose Profile because it was a great opportunity to get back into my field of nutrition and help to change lives. I am a people person and enjoy interacting with a diverse group of members.”

Marnie has been with Profile since December 2021 and enjoys working with a great bunch of very talented coaches at our location. She’s a part-time health coach who comes from a background in nutrition. Her coaching style is compassionate, supportive — yet forthright, motivational, and relatable. “I joined the team after retiring from full-time work to do something that I love — supporting others to live healthier lives and reach healthier weights. Jarin had reached out to me on LinkedIn and I followed up. I had actually applied for a position before he ever opened the store, but at that time he was only offering part-time, and I was looking for full-time work. It circled back again, and finally, the time was right. I love the diverse talent and caring personalities that we have on this team. I believe in the research that the program is based on, and of all the weight loss programs I have been involved in, I feel that Profile has the strongest transition program and it is my passion to support our clients in seeing the importance of that part of the Journey for long term success.”

Patti has been with the Profile team for over a year and joined our coaching staff after being a member herself. She understands the struggles that members may face. She has become a great listener and with her own experience with the program, she’s able to offer suggestions and can relate to how the program works. “I retired and wanted to work something part-time, I had just finished a three-month program with Profile and I had incredible results — 42 pounds lost!!! More importantly, my health was better!! I loved coming in for my coaching sessions and the people that work here were awesome, so for me, it was a "no brainer"!!! I feel so lucky to work with such great people!!”

Hi, I'm Julee! As a former high school teacher, my coaching style is nurturing and personal. I'm an Earth Mama at heart and live to share the joy that eating that rainbow promises. Savoring the beauty that grows around us fuels our bodies as well as our spirits. My personal mission is to encourage a farm to table lifestyle. Let go of guilt and forbidden food rules and make choices based on what you know is best for your body and mind. A true appreciation for the produce that grows each season includes disconnecting from tech and listening to nature and feeling the grass under your toes. Replacing thoughts of can't have with the empowering realization that bounty surrounds us. The ripest peach of the season is the ultimate reminder that God knew what he/she/they was doing. When I'm not coaching, I'm usually counting the minutes for my hubby to get home to take our rescue dog Ted for his evening stroll and sniff. I also have two beautiful and spirited daughters that make me giggle and think all in the same breath.  They have heard more times than they would prefer: "The present is a gift, unwrap it." I would be honored to teach you how to honor your body with the food that grows around us.

Ruthanne has been with Profile for over a year and joined our staff with a background in Medical Assisting and Nutrition Sales and Coaching. Ruthanne has a deep seated passion for wellness; and has lost over 60 pounds herself! Her coaching style is empathetic and relaxed, and she identifies her personality as "mellow and positive". In the coach room, Ruthanne strives to inspire and motivate others, and having struggled with weight throughout her life fuels her passion and to help educate and empower others. "I came to Profile after igniting my career in wellness, and I have found so much joy in connecting with others and inspiring change! My favorite part of what I do is fostering genuine connections with our members and getting to come in to work every day with a smile on my face. They say when you love what you do you'll never work a day in your life; and Profile has made that come true!"
