I am Valerie Orsoni, a mom, wife and working woman. Formerly overweight myself, I battled weight issues for many years and decided to share my experience and success with other women like me. After trying countless fad diets and achieving nothing but the yo-yo effect, I finally took matters into my own hands.
Surrounded by experts including my father who is a master chef, I developed my own weight loss method based on my desire for a healthy and balanced lifestyle without any deprivation or frustration. Thus, the LeBootCamp method was born. My method combines nutrition, diet, fitness, psychology, and the management of cravings.
The success of my very first online coaching model eventually brought me to privately coach several Hollywood A-listers, and to share my unique approach to healthy weight loss with international media. Coaching is my true calling, be it through interviews, books, interactive video games, or my coaching website LeBootCamp.com.
After writing more than a dozen books including the bestselling "Le Personal Coach" published by Reader's Digest, I fully refreshed my weight loss method in a brand new edition called "LeBootcamp Diet" published by the Penguin Group.
Originally a native of Corsica, I have lived in California for many years - specifically in the heart of Silicon Valley where new trends in health, wellness and nutrition are constantly on the rise. I am regularly invited to contribute at conferences on nutrition and obesity at prestigious universities and hospitals including Stanford.
My method is constantly evolving with the latest medical and scientific research in nutrition. Staying abreast of new discoveries in the world of health and weight loss assists me in my passion: to pioneer new methods in healthy eating and superfoods like buckwheat, Goji berries or Chia seeds for example.
