When the nutritionist quit the night before shooting started on Trees Of Peace, lead Executive Producer Michelle Ray, who is an IFBB Fitness Pro, stepped in and created a balanced meal plan for the four lead actresses. Then she proceeded to prepare their meals daily and got the four actresses to lose between 12 to 20 lbs in 20 days safely. She managed to do this while holding down a full-time job as head of Business Development for a visual effects company and managing meetings with Disney, Sony, Marvel, etc., and doing her job as an EP during the shooting.
