What is Nutrition Coaching? Is it Right for Me?

Health and fitness professionals are lucky to work in a field that can positively impact the lives of many. Nutrition and healthy eating can be the most confusing. A Nutrition Coach can provide a plan and tools you need and guide you through the process of getting healthier and living your best life. There is no “one size fits all” nutrition plan. You need one put together specifically for you.

My Approach

The only nutrition program that works is the one the client is committed to following. I can design a very good plan but if you, the client, is not ready to take it seriously, no plan will ever work

Honest Results

Accountability from both Nutrition Coach and client is key to produce results. Nutrition Coach should periodically assess and adjust program with client. Client should report accurately whatever determined in the program: journaling, entering results on app, basically providing the data Nutrition Coach needs to implement the program. If both parties work together, results will follow.

A good rule of thumb is to drink 10-12 glasses of water/day. True of false?

False. There is no evidence that shows that, however, if you are not properly hydrated, both your mind and your body will be stressed. Three factors determine how much water you need: rate of sweat, environment conditions (heat or cold), level of exertion during exercise. Also, you can monitor the color of your urine. (light yellow ,hydrated, dark urine, dehydrated).

 

I heard that MyPyramid has been replaced. Is it true?

Actually it has. The MyPlate food guidance replaced MyPyramid. MyPlate focuses on portion control and using the food groups to create a balanced diet.

What's the difference betweeen a "portion" and a "serving" size?

A “portion” size is how much food you choose to eat at one time. A “serving” size is the amount of food listed on a product Nutrition Facts. Sometimes ‘portion” and “serving” size match , more likely in products that the package contains one “serving” size.

how many calories do I need to burn to lose a pound of weight?

You need to burn off 3,500 calories to lose 1 pound. This translates, on average, a deficit of 500 calories a day to lose 1 pound a week.

What is the difference between calories and kilocalories?

The calorie we refer to in food is actually kilocalorie. One kilocalorie is the same as one calorie.
