General Questions
Stronger U is a personalized, macronutrient-based nutrition coaching program built around you and your specific needs. We identify your challenges and opportunities to improve by creating solutions tailored to you. Instead of telling you what to eat, your dedicated nutrition coach will teach you how to eat in a way that makes sense for you, your goals, and your lifestyle.
Unlike most diets or weight loss programs, we take an individualized approach to helping you achieve your goals. There’s no “one size fits all” plan here! First, we match you with one of our Registered Dietitians or certified nutrition coaches based on your goals, lifestyle factors, health condition(s) and preferences. Then we take a deep dive into understanding your current habits and struggles: What have you tried in the past? What’s been holding you back? Your coach will then create a custom nutrition strategy for you and check-in with you each week to review your progress.
Absolutely! We’ve helped thousands of women and men manage (and even overcome) their health conditions while on the program. Our team of Registered Dieticians are here specifically to help manage such conditions as:
- *type 1 diabetes (reference: https://diabetes.org/diabetes/type-1) •
- *celiac (reference: https://celiac.org/about-the-foundation/mission-and-purpose/) •
- *Hashimoto’s thyroiditis •
- *lupus •
- *menopause •
- *hyper/hypothyroidism
That’s a great question! Unfortunately, we can’t predict how much weight you will lose with Stronger U. Most of our members experience an average weight loss of 0.5-2.0 pounds per week. Of course, this could be more or less per week depending on your current weight, adherence to the program, and other factors.
While we do encourage members to track their macros on a regular basis, we focus on more than just the calories you eat. When working with a nutrition coach, you’ll learn new habits, skills, and mindset shifts that will help you break through your weight loss roadblocks and plateaus.
Nope! At Stronger U, we believe that carbohydrates are a necessary component of a balanced diet. Your coach will work with you to determine the right amount of carbs for your current weight, activity level, and body composition goals.
No, but as a member, you’ll receive access to Stronger University and our member’s-only Facebook page which houses hundreds of recipes, food hacks, and videos to help you along the way!
Busy is the new normal, and the last thing we need is another to-do list item to make us feel guilty. Which is why we make communication and check-ins with your coach as easy as possible. With our new Stronger U App, you’ll have:
- Direct access to your coach right from your phone
- An easy way to log and track your daily meals
- An interactive dashboard to keep track of your progress
- Educational resources to help you simplify your journey
Nope! If you struggle to meet your protein goals, you might want to consider a protein supplement (shakes, bars, etc). Your coach can recommend specific varieties, but you’ll never be required to buy any powders or supplements to adhere to the program.

Our Coaches
Having a good relationship with your nutrition coach is a key ingredient to succeeding on the program. If at any point you feel you aren’t compatible with your coach, you can request a new coach with zero interruptions to your session. Simply contact our Member Experience Team via the link in your Stronger U app profile.
When you sign up for Stronger U, you’ll fill out an intake form that helps us understand your goals and lifestyle factors that will help us assign the coach that’s the best fit for YOU.
And we don’t want to brag (ok, maybe we do), but our coach matching process is the best in the industry. Less than 1% of our members have requested to transfer coaches during their Stronger U session, so you could say we know a thing or two about what makes a great coach/member relationship 😊
That’s a definite maybe! If you want to request a specific coach, please input their name in the ‘What I’m looking for in a coach’ field on the intake form. We do our best to honor coach requests, but it’s possible that your preferred coach might not be accepting new members due to capacity constraints. To check on specific coach availability before signing up, email info@strongeru.com.
