Annie's food logs before we met for her nutrition session and Annie's food log after we met.



Hi Deborah,

A little background on me: I am 25 year old female, athletic (I work out 1-3 times a week, but when training for an event 2-4 times a week), no health issues, I'm 5'7 and I currently weigh about 170 pounds. 

My goal and what I am looking for with nutrition coaching is to achieve a healthy weight loss of 20 pounds. My diet is on the go, no fast food but exactly cooked at home or fresh.

 I am looking forward to hearing about the services you offer and hope they can aide me in my weight loss journey. 


Regards,
Annie



Hi Annie,

It is great hearing from you. Would you be able to send me a 3-4 day food log? Time of day is very important...along with any name brands of foods you eat. 

Once I get the food log, I can access how much time and what kind of session I can offer you...I hope you feel okay with this. 
It is a great way for me to get to understand where you are at and where we will go with your nutrition. 

I look forward to getting the food logs and going from there!!!
Deb

Hi Annie,

Thank you for sending the food logs.


As an athlete, I see that you could use some guidance on how to fuel your body correctly so that you can make sure to build lean muscle and burn body fat and have a great amount of energy too. 

You are not doing a bad job, it just looks like having the right education on eating food as fuel, making sure it tastes good and is convenient and also making sure that your body gets what it needs to thrive, is the path to get you on.



Here is what I suggest...
I would come to your home and we would have a session that involves educating you on the correct way of eating for YOUR body. This is not a diet, it is learning about food as fuel and how to fuel YOUR body correctly during the day. 

Then we will create a food plan that you will follow for 2 weeks, based on foods you like, that fit into your lifestyle and that will get you to reach your goals. 

During the 2 weeks I encourage you to email me every day with your food logs. This way I can be right with you each step making sure that you feel good, that you are staying on the right path and that if you have any questions or concerns I will be right there to answer your questions and help you with any snags!!!


After the 2 weeks,  my clients go on a grocery shopping trip with me at their preferred grocery store. At this point, you will "get" how to eat correctly and will be able to incorporate a ton of new exciting healthy foods into your plan. Please let me know if this sounds like what you are looking for...
Smiles...

Deb

Deborah,


I was smiling the whole time reading your email. I am very excited about this and think this is already sounding like a great plan! 

When I first started researching nutritional coaching, I was looking for something that can be personalized to fit my life and not just a generic slap on "detox diet extreme" that I am sure would in the short term get me towards my goal but down the road I would be right back to square one. 

I am looking for the right education and guidance to make long term changes in my life so that nutrition isn't something that is compromised for me. I also love the idea of the grocery shopping trip because I usually find that I struggle in knowing what I need to be buying for a healthy weeks worth of food. 

I know that having to answer to someone will really help me as well, I have had luck with myfitnesspal with logging my food but knowing someone is actually reading my food log will give me an extra boost of self control to make more conscious nutritional choices in what I eat.

 the protein chocolate cake is a work in

 progress but by the time I see you I will

 have a perfected one just for you because

 honestly it is very tasty! 


Its my first time

 using real 100% organic cocoa 

powder...learned its very bitter, but one of

 those apple sauces added to the mixture




 seemed to really change it up and add a

 sweet moisture that's natural!

its cottage cheese, egg whites, protein powder, cocoa, black beans, and now applesauce hehe.
