About Lori Balue

Aging Adventurously™ Founder • FDN Practitioner • Former Obesity Survivor

I grew up in the San Gabriel Valley loving frosted animal cookies, donut-truck snacks, ice cream, and everything sweet. By my teenage years I was already close to 200 pounds — exhausted, depressed, and hiding in baggy clothes, wondering why I couldn’t stop gaining weight.

For decades I bounced from diet to diet:
low-fat, low-calorie, vegetarian, HCG, Paleo…

Lose the weight.
Gain it back.
Start again.

Meanwhile I battled asthma, allergies, PCOS, and depression while raising three children and feeling trapped in a body that didn’t feel like mine.

The Turning Point

The turning point came at a Bulletproof Conference when a body-type scientist looked at me and simply said:

“Stop eating fruit.”

Something shifted.

I went keto that day — with Bulletproof coffee, MCT oil, and homemade low-carb bread — and everything began changing rapidly.

Within the first month:

• I lost 20 pounds
• My cravings disappeared
• My brain fog lifted
• My vision sharpened
• And after 20 years, I no longer needed an inhaler

That moment changed everything.

Discovering the Root Causes

I dove into functional nutrition training with Chris Kresser, became a Functional Health Coach, and later trained with Reed Davis to become a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P).

Through deeper testing I discovered food sensitivities to dairy and wheat — the very foods that had been keeping me inflamed, overweight, and metabolically stuck.

Over time I lost 100 pounds naturally and permanently and built the lifestyle I now teach.

My Mission

Help Women Over 50 Restore Their Metabolism and Age Adventurously™

Women don’t fail diets — diets fail women.
Especially after 50.

Many of my clients come to me feeling:

bloated
exhausted
inflamed
craving sugar after dinner
gaining weight around the middle
and feeling like strangers in their own bodies

Just like I once did.

That’s why I created the Holistic Low Carb Method™ — a process designed to help women:

reduce inflammation
stabilize blood sugar
heal hidden metabolic blocks
reverse prediabetes and stubborn weight gain
eliminate cravings
and finally feel confident in their bodies again

Using targeted functional testing — including GI-MAP, DUTCH hormone testing, HTMA mineral analysis, MRT food sensitivity testing, and other metabolic markers — we uncover the real reasons behind stalled metabolism and stubborn weight.

The goal is simple:

Get healthy to lose weight — not lose weight to get healthy.
