Texas' Attorney General is suing fitness influencer Brittany Dawn, accusing her of misleading customers with eating disorders and promising customized nutrition and fitness plans while really giving patrons the same plan.

The lawsuit by AG Ken Paxton seen by Insider alleges that for fees as high as $300 per person, Dawn sold largely similar fitness plans while claiming they were personalized to each customer.

The Christian influencer —who has nearly 500,000 followers on Instagram, describes herself as a "Jesus seeker" and "Kingdom chaser" in her Instagram biography — promised individualized feedback and regular check-ins that never happened, according to the lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges that Dawn charged shipping fees, when all her services arrived via electronic communications.

Her plan for one underweight lady was to go on a diet
