What if my work schedule changes suddenly?
The scale is one pound higher than yesterday. Now what?
My best friend is having a birthday party this weekend. What do I do?
I have to work late this week and can no longer workout at 5:00 p.m. How do I adjust my food?
A coach will make those decisions for you. He or she will guide you through the expected weight fluctuations related to your previous day’s food and fluid intake, sleep, stress, and menstrual cycle. He or she will prepare you with actionable strategies to adjust your nutrition and exercise to find balance between staying on plan and enjoying yourself at your best friend’s party. And he or she will educate you as to how to adjust your food intake when needing to train at a different time of day. All you need to do is trust your coach and execute said plan. So rather than worrying about the details of when and how to progress during a diet, choose to focus on eating well (and per plan!), training hard, and smiling each day, and let your coach handle the rest.
What exactly is nutrition coaching?
Nutrition Coaches bridge the gap between the desire to be healthy and actually being healthy, assisting clients with every step of the process.
Nutrition Coaches are knowledgeable advisors who provide ongoing support and guidance as you set goals and make sustainable changes that improve your health and wellbeing. Your Nutrition Coach will listen carefully and help you to navigate the world of contradictory nutrition advice, to determine what changes are necessary for you and your unique body. He or she will look at the entire picture of health, including food, mindset, movement, relationships, finances, spirituality and career – to create a total body, mind & spirit transformation.
What does a nutritionist do?
A nutritionist will not only help you create a meal plan and feel confident choosing what to eat, but also provide you with the necessary support and accountability to follow through on your dietary changes.
Can a nutritionist help me with eating disorders?
Treating an eating disorder often requires a number of different professionals, including a medical doctor and a psychologist or mental health counselor. But a nutrition expert is a crucial part of the treatment team. They can help you create a meal plan that not only includes what to eat, but also provides you with strategies for ensuring that you follow through.
Should I avoid carbs?
Carbs are not inherently fattening, especially whole food sources. And getting adequate carbs can help most clients exercise harder and recover better, optimizing progress.
How will I know what to eat?
A nutritionist does more than offer a proper meal plan. They help you learn the best nutrition tips for choosing the right foods. These tips get tailored to your unique lifestyle and can help you to reach your goals.
