ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Amber Taves and I live near Vernon, B.C. in a beautiful community nestled in the picturesque Okanagan Valley. Since I was a child, I’ve always been active and loved the outdoors. After a 9 year career as a paramedic, followed by having three children, I felt compelled to get back into better physical shape. With the guidance of a personal trainer, I started exercising hard - determined to shed those stubborn baby pounds. Exercise alone just wasn’t enough, so I turned to my trainer for nutritional advice and from there was able to lose 24 inches from my body - and kept it off!
Light bulb moment - eating to fuel my active lifestyle was the key I was initially missing.
Soon afterwards, I started training for a 50km trail race and realized that I needed to learn more about nutrition at a higher level. This eventually led me to Precision Nutrition where I took the certification to become a Nutrition Coach.
I started Precision Nutrition because I am passionate about helping others live a sustainable, healthy lifestyle whether they are looking to lose weight, lower blood pressure, manage GI issues, train for sports, or simply feel healthier overall. I sincerely hope to provide you with a roadmap to success through a delicious and nutritious plan to fuel your day to day activities and support your lifestyle.
