I have been a Registered and Licensed Dietitian/Nutritionist for 10 years and business owner for over 6 years! I have worked in the clinical setting at a hospital for almost 8 years in addition to my business.
I was inspired to start my own business when I lost over 20 lbs on my own and have kept it off for a long time! I used to struggle finding a balance with nutrition and exercise and now that I’ve found it, it’s my passion to help others find the same!
I am from Florida and live in the Tampa area with my 2 year- old daughter Ellie and my dog Blue! I love trying new restaurants, traveling, cooking, and spending time with friends and family!
How my approach is different
Working with so many clients over the years, I have found that most people who have chronically dieted have slowed down their metabolism to a point where no matter how much exercise they do or how little they eat, they will be stuck and unable to lose more weight. To avoid getting into starvation level calories, putting your body at risk
Working with so many clients over the years, I have found that most people who have chronically dieted have slowed down their metabolism to a point where no matter how much exercise they do or how little they eat, they will be stuck and unable to lose more weight. To avoid getting into starvation level calories, putting your body at risk for muscle loss and nutrient deficiencies along with being miserable, a period of higher calories is often needed to prime metabolism before entering a fat loss phase again. Oftentimes, during this increasing food phase (sometimes called a "reverse diet"), clients will say they have improved digestion, less bloating, more energy, less reliant on caffeine, better sleep, a more regular menstrual cycle, enhanced mood, feel stronger with higher performance in the gym, lose inches, and just feel better overall! At the end of the reverse diet, they are maintaining their weight on much more food and can start the fat loss process again on a more manageable calorie level! It also allows for much more wiggle room to reduce further if and when a plateau occurs.
However, the approach all depends on where you are when we start. If you haven't chronically dieted, your metabolism is likely in a healthier state and increasing food intake prior to a fat loss phase might not be necessary.
Every plan is personalized to each individual client and their diet preferences and lifestyle. My main goal is to help you find sustainable weight loss no matter the circumstances. I have worked with vegans, vegetarians, omnivores, gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, you name it!
I also believe in balanced nutrition and not missing out on life! My clients still go out to eat, go on vacation, and enjoy holidays while meeting their goals. You don't have to isolate yourself in a weight loss dungeon eating steamed broccoli and bland chicken all day to lose weight. You really can eat your favorite foods, enjoy life, and meet your weight loss and health goals!
