Melissa's Bio: In April 2013, Melissa was finishing her 3rd maternity leave from her pharmacist role. After gaining more than 100lbs throughout her pregnancies, she knew she was missing something as far as nutrition goes and needed help for herself. That's when she discovered Ideal Protein. She then went on to build a successful business within her pharmacy, Redcliff Pharmasave in Redcliff Alberta, which her and husband/pharmacist Rob have owned for ten years. As the first client and coach, Melissa has lost 125lbs with Ideal Protein and has coached 850 clients who have lost 32,500 lbs and counting! She has also had great success as a pharmacist with her Advanced Prescribing Authorization to be able to deprescribe medications for her patients going through the program for diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, cholesterol and more. Melissa has won numerous awards for her work, including the prestigious national pharmacist award, the Canadian Commitment to Care and Service award in Health Promotion. She was also the recipient of the University of Alberta's Pharmacy Alumnus Award this past year. Melissa is passionate, knowledgeable and willing to share her expertise, and has been a requested speaker at many pharmacy and Ideal Protein events.
