Gina Miller
Certified Ideal Protein Coach & Workshop Facilitator
Gina studied Fine Arts at Emily Carr University and is the mother of three boys. When she is not spending time in her studio painting (see her paintings at ginamiller.ca), she is a Certified Ideal Protein Weight Loss Coach at Vital Body.Despite being a yoga-lover, Gina never really fully lost her pregnancy weight after having her boys. She carried the extra weight around for nearly 10 years until she made losing the weight a priority for herself and followed the Ideal Protein Protocol. Now she feels lean and energetic in her body.
Gina is a top notch coach who cares deeply about each person she meets. Like all of our weight loss coaches, she understands the science of weight loss and is an expert at guiding dieters to their goals and empowering them to maintain their weight long after the weight loss phase is done.
“I love seeing my dieters have the ‘aha’ moment when it becomes clear they aren’t going back to the way things were. It’s so fun helping our dieters lose weight and enjoy their new bodies in maintenance.”
Beverley Rice
Certified Ideal Protein Coach
Beverley has a deep understanding of the physiology of the body from having an athletic and physically active lifestyle. When she did the Ideal Protein Protocol at Vital Body, she was impressed by the science and loved that exercise was not the focus of the program despite her very active background.With the help of Ideal Protein, Beverley lost 2 full sizes after gaining weight slowly over several years from a car accident. She is pleased to be lean again and is back to her active lifestyle practicing martial arts, running, motorcycle riding, doing water sports and even learning archery. She is definitely adventurous!
Beverley has worked as a registered massage therapist for close to a decade and is a certified yoga instructor. Compassion and kindness are Beverley’s life mottos.
“There is a scientific explanation for every single part of this program. It floors me! Educating our clients on the science is a key part of what we do.”
Eimear Power
Reception & Office Manager
Eimear came to Vancouver in 2016 and hails from Ireland. She has a degree in Sports Science and Nutrition. Eimear is the first person to greet people at their weekly check ins and takes amazing care of their scheduling needs.Weight loss and wellness has always been an area of importance to Eimear since most of her closer relatives have dealt with obesity-related issues. For this reason, she shares in the vision of long-term health for dieters at Vital Body.
She enjoys running, exploring the restaurant scene and making new friends as she settles into her new community. You’ll surely recognize Eimear by her lovely Irish accent at your first visit to Vital Body!
“I love the look on our dieters’ faces – the look of shear happiness, freedom and relief as they reclaim the body they envisioned for themselves.”
Zan Romeder
Ideal Protein Certified Coach & Clinic Owner
Zan has a Masters Degree from SFU in Health Care and worked in Leadership Development before co-founding Vital Body with Amrita in 2011. In 2015, Zan was recognized by Chatelaine Magazine and ProfitGuide.com as one of Canada’s Top 100 Female Entrepreneurs “Rising Stars”.
Zan lost 50 lbs on the Ideal Protein Weight Loss Program after trying many other diets with zero success. “Sure I felt great doing more yoga and eating a healthy balanced diet, but I never lost any fat.” She went from a size 14 to a size 6 in 5 months in 2011. “I just love that I exercise for fun now, versus for trying to lose weight. It’s such a sense of freedom and peace to be happy in my body.”
Zan spent many years in the personal development field and brings these learnings to her work at Vital Body. Together, the team works to enhance the coaching they provide dieters by addressing the mental and emotional aspects related to holistic weight loss.
In 2019, Zan launched her podcast and website mibo musings. She had been working with this idea for 3 years and was finally ready to make it live. The site is dedicated to tools and resources that focus on the non food aspects of weight loss. Head on over to explore this fabulous gift that Zan offers to the world at no charge.
When she is not at Vital Body, she is spending time with her family on the Sunshine Coast. She loves cooking and doing yoga and listening to the sounds that nature offers. Zan brings love and plenty of laughter to all that she does.
“May everyone be blessed to feel free as a bird in their body and discover and create a peaceful relationship to their body and food.”
Erin Hindle
Ideal Protein Certified Coach
Erin has a well rounded background. She studied musical theatre at Sheridan College, she was an investment broker for 15 years, she has a love for buying and fixing up furniture, she has a passion for design and staging, and is finding ways to bring more and more creativity to all that she does.
Erin had been a yoyo dieter for years and was serious about and ready to end that cycle for herself. She says it took a while for her to realize it was going to take a real lifestyle make over for this to happen. She came to Vital Body to make this happen. She has reinvented how she socializes and has made wonderful changes to her body, mind and spirit. She worked with her coach and week by week things started falling into place for her. It’s really natural for Erin to find herself in the coaching role. She has a gift for being so loving and clear at the same time.
When she is not at Vital Body, she is running her design company, hiking, traveling, hanging with friends and family, and enjoying taking care of herself.
She is compassionate, empathetic and has a tremendous commitment to bring the best of her to all she does.
“I am thrilled to bring my natural instinct to help people. And excited to see others break through barriers as I did myself”
Vital Body was founded in March 2011 after Zan Romeder lost 50 lbs on the Ideal Protein Weight Loss Method after having tried many other ways of losing weight. She joined forces with Amrita Ahuja and together they began helping a handful of dieters out of a small chiropractic office. By July 2011, they opened a full-size clinic that is now the largest Ideal Protein Centre in the Lower Mainland. As they grew, so did their team of weight loss coaches and support staff. In May 2015, Zan and Amrita were recognized by Chatelaine and Profitguide.com as one of Canada’s Top Female Entrepreneurs “Rising Stars” for their growth, passion and extraordinary business practices. In February 2016, Vital Body was awarded Top 5 Best Companies by Small Business BC. Up to now, 95% of their dieters have found Vital Body through word-of-mouth – a testament to the success and appreciation of their clients who continue to spread the good news. Vital Body’s mission is to help people lose weight without starving or working out like a maniac, all the while developing a healthy relationship to food.
Ideal Protein was founded by Dr. Tran Chan Tien, an award-winning sports medicine specialist from France, and Olivier Benloulou from Gatineau, Quebec. Ideal Protein is a Canadian weight loss company. Today, Ideal Protein is one of the largest weight loss companies in North America and is now available worldwide. There are over 3000 medical practitioners offering this method in their practices today.
