Life is about balance. It’s not about extremes. It’s
not about tipping the scales in one direction or the other
based on the latest diet trend. It is about finding our
unique balance that works best for us. Many people are looking
for a “quick fix” or “magic bullet”.
This approach will only tip the scales further out of balance.
My focus is on helping you get your body back into balance
and then establishing a lifelong plan that will take you
into the future with the quality of life you deserve.
Biochemical
Uniqueness
I have an individual approach to nutritional counseling
which is based on the belief that we are all biochemically
unique. No two people have the same metabolism, biochemical make-up, health
concerns, behavorial issues or nutritional needs.. This is why
no one diet is right for everyone. My nutritional plans
reflect this belief and are customized to meet your individual
nutrient and lifestyle needs.
Not
all about calories
Many people looking to lose weight are told that it is simply
a matter of calories in versus calories out. This couldn’t
be further from the truth. Calories do count but where they
come from counts more. This is because of our hormonal response
to foods. An understanding of this is crucial to the success
of any weight loss plan.
I focus on helping you heal your metabolism so that you
never have a weight problem again.
Nutritional
awareness
I think that it’s safe to say that we give more consideration
to what we put on our bodies than what we put in our bodies.
Everyday we go to the supermarket, purchase food and consume
it without ever even checking the label for the ingredients
when we wouldn’t dream of purchasing a shirt without
first checking the material content and care instructions.
One of my main focuses is to help empower you to become
more nutritionally aware so that you are better equipped
to make healthier decisions.
Behaviorally
Speaking
Sometimes we know what to do and we just don’t do
it or - we know what not to do and we do it anyway. I think
most of us can relate to the phrase “we are our own
worst enemy”. The psychological component of weight
loss and wellness issues is very complex and must be greatly
considered. I focus on helping you uncover and correct the
lifestyle and behavioral factors that have sabotaged your
health in the past and inspire you to set and reach realistic
goals to achieving lifelong health and wellness.
