I explained to her I wanted to discuss the cost/her program over with my spouse. She told me “just apply to see if you get approved”. I thought if I applied I would still have option to opt in or decline services. Gia NEVER told me by applying Affirm would automatically send the payment of $3000 directly to her!! When I asked her about it she told me “it’s not my fault you chose a payment plan”. She knew exactly what she was doing. I find that to be very dishonest and completely misleading. She used my vulnerability and manipulated my health situation to her advantage. She promotes being available thru her app to support her clients - however that’s not the case. I was not able to get in contact with her via her app at all. Instead I had to reach out to her via Instagram. In fact Cassy another coach that works along side Gia provides much more support than Gia! I have physical disabilities which I fully disclosed to Gia. She told me she was certified personal trainer so I expected a customized workout plan - but instead I was provided with a computerized generated generic workout routine along with generic computerized meal plan. Again, neither of those were actually customized. Gia promotes hormone support but doesn’t run any tests at all, no bloodwork, no hair samples, no stool samples, no urine tests, no hormone testing NOTHING! Our bodies are all different and some need different support than others. My hopes are that if anyone is contemplating signing up for her program they will read all the reviews first and save themselves the grief, headaches and frustration. Save your money and find someone else to work with that truly cares about helping you heal and that isn’t greedy or shady. Unfortunately for me this was a lesson learned. Gia walked away with $3000 for providing no support. Her program is WAY OVER priced and you don’t receive full support as promised. She offers supplements that are an addition cost. If you’re unsatisfied for any reason you can forget any type of refund, not even a partial. I reached out to Gia after 2.5 DAYS of being in her program asking her to work with me on a refund (even if it was a partial). She hit me a cease and desist and then blocked me. Gia claims to be a believer in Christ. I learned the hard way. “You will know them by their fruit” Matthew 7:16-20 **Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your experience. We're disappointed to hear that you felt misled during the enrollment process. Transparency and informed decision making are important to us, and we strive to clearly communicate program details, pricing, financing options, policies, and deliverables before enrollment. Because every client situation is unique and involves private information, we cannot discuss specific account details publicly. However, we take concerns regarding communication, support, and expectations seriously and review feedback like this carefully. Our goal has always been to help clients improve their health through education, coaching, and accountability. While we understand that not every program is the right fit for every individual, we appreciate the opportunity to learn from feedback and improve our client experience. We wish you well moving forward. ### 1/5 — Review *2024-11-30* Don’t do it! **Developer response:** We're sorry to see that your experience led to this impression. We genuinely care about the success of our clients and work hard to provide support, education, and resources that help individuals make lasting changes to their health and lifestyle. While we understand that not every experience will be positive, we are always open to constructive feedback and opportunities to improve. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. ### 1/5 — The app itself is alright *2024-07-18* Gia is insanely money hungry and I honestly question her credentials. Constantly contradicting herself, making blanket statements without explanation, and if you aren’t going to join her monthly program where she can milk you for money, she’s no longer interested in “helping” you. There’s a weird cult like vibe to the program where no one questions her, just takes what she says at face value. It costs $3500. It did help me (more like I helped myself) but it was nowhere near worth what she charges. Hey Gia maybe you should read the Bible a bit more, specifically 1 Timothy 6:10 **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear you found some value in the app and that it contributed positively to your journey. At the same time, we're sorry that other aspects of your experience left you feeling disappointed. We understand that clients come to us with high expectations and significant health goals. Our intention is always to provide guidance, education, and support in a way that empowers individuals to take ownership of their health. Feedback regarding communication, perceived value, and overall client experience is important to us, and we appreciate you sharing your perspective. We are continuously working to improve and better serve our community. We wish you continued success and good health. ### 5/5 — Great Program! *2026-08-08* Completing Gia’s nutrition and exercise program has been one of the best things I've done for my health. She is quite knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cares about her clients. Anytime I had a question, she got back to me so quickly. I loved the weekly group Zoom coaching calls—they were informative, fun, and full of practical tips and delicious, easy recipes. I learned so much about creating balanced, plant-based meals and choosing healthier, less processed foods. The best part is that I can truly see and feel the difference now that I'm fueling my body with the right nutrition. If you're vegan, plant-based, or simply looking to improve your health, I highly recommend Gia. I only wish I'd found her years ago when I first became vegetarian! ### 5/5 — 5/5! *2026-08-04* This app was super easy to use and Gia explained everything in a very user friendly way! Gia was very responsive and the GC was a great way to bound with others! Gia helped me with my body recomp, gaining more energy and healed my gut! Highly recommend! ❤️ ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-08-03* Gia made an amazing program! She teaches you how to change your habit to make this a lifestyle and not just a short program to hit your goal and then go back to your unhealthy habits to repeat in the future! I feel confident in the foods and meals I make and prioritizing movement daily! Would recommend to anyone! ### 5/5 — Great program! *2026-08-03* Gia’s program helped me to finally break the plateau I’d been on for years. When I need to dial in my diet, her recipes are available in the app to help me track macros; when I’m in the gym, I track my progress in the app and can see how far I’ve come and push myself. Gia is also in the chat encouraging me along the way and holding me accountable in a way that works for me. The program has changed my relationship with food and exercise for the better, and the app makes it all the easier to do on my own time! ### 5/5 — Fantastic App!! Nothing better. *2026-07-30* I have been using the Planta by Gia app for over a year now. The recipes and exercise plans are fantastic, and the community is amazing. I absolutely love how everything is in one place for me, and if I’ve ever had any small issues, they’re resolved very quickly. Gia (and this app) has been an absolute godsend. I tried EVERYTHING before, and nothing worked. Now, I’ve lost 40lbs and have never felt or looked better. I recommend it to all of my friends looking to get healthier and lose some weight. Thank you Gia! ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Worth it *2026-07-29* This program is amazing if you’re ready to put the work in!

There’s so much misinformation about what works/doesn’t work for women, it can get really overwhelming. If you’re looking for a place filled with knowledge, love, support, motivation from a whole community of amazing women, and ACTUALLY getting the results you want - working with Gia is it!!!! **Developer response:** Thank you for this review Madison! It was such a pleasure working with you and watching you continue to reach your goals! Keep up the great work! ### 5/5 — Amazing!!! *2026-02-12* Gia is an amazing coach who not only helped me achieve my goals, but has taught me how to balance my busy lifestyle while also prioritizing my health! **Developer response:** You should be so proud of yourself Jeb! You did absolutely amazing, finding balance in a busy lifestyle is essential to make this sustainable and that is exactly what you did!
