BonVie Weight was founded in 2010 after Sharon’s experience with the Ideal Protein program. As a professional physical therapist, the science underlying this proven protocol attracted Sharon's attention. After certification in the Ideal Protein program, she decided to share the benefits and opened BonVie Weight Loss and Nutritional Wellness.

Yes, you will achieve your weight-loss goals but even more importantly, you will gain the tools to lose that fat forever! We help you end the vicious cycle of "Yo-Yo dieting".

Elaine Watson
Weight Loss Coach
An ever growing interest in health and wellness, combined with a foodie’s love for a great meal, led Elaine naturally into the world of nutrition. As a Certified Nutritional Coach she spent her initial years of practice focused on digestive health, improving mental clarity, and helping people learn to respond to food allergies and sensitivities. It became increasingly clear to Elaine that the physical and emotional toll on clients struggling with overweight and obesity were serious issues.
She has since developed a fascination with and study of the science behind effective weight loss and is thrilled to be working with BonVie Weight Loss & Nutritional Wellness as a Certified Ideal Protein Coach. Helping individuals improve their health, body image and confidence through a consistently effective weight loss program with support, resources and guidance is one of Elaine’s greatest passions.
Elaine has a background in massage therapy as well as social work. Previously from Santa Barbara, CA she, her husband and two boys have fallen thoroughly in love with the Pacific Northwest and enjoy the natural beauty, the friendliness of the people and the thriving food culture, along with exploring the city, forests, riverside stops and hiking trails.
