completely off-limits... life is about choices and we will help
you make the right choices. we also provide the support you
need to understand your body and its personal needs for reaching
your goals and maintaining them throughout life.

the needs of our clients.
services include:
private counseling sessions -

comprehensive assessment of
medical history, diet
history, current diet,
lifestyle and fitness
habits. we utilize the
information gathered at this

personalized diet
prescription suitable to
your unique lifestyle. we
set up a daily meal schedule
that is customized for your
daily routine and food
preferences which will make
it easier to stay on track.
behavior modification
strategies such as
recognizing triggers for
eating are also addressed. a
goals contract is then drawn
up and we work closely with
you on how to make specific
changes in order to attain
your personal goals. these
goals are assessed at
follow-up sessions.

follow-up consultations

consultations is determined

monitored and barriers to
change are addressed. food

thoroughly analyzed. follow
up consultations are
essential for continuous
support and motivation.
behavior modification
techniques are provided in

it's not a diet; it's a way of life!
supermarket tour / savvy food
shopping -
-
learn how to go smart food
shopping by deciphering food
labels and ingredients, and
by separating fact from
fiction and truth from the
hype which is propagated by
the media and by store
marketing campaigns.
group seminars & workshops -
-
professional workshops and
seminars are presented at
schools, corporate offices,
schools, charity functions
etc. these presentations are
customized to meet the needs
of the audience. topics can
include general wellness,
healthy recipe
demonstrations, nutrition
tips on how to navigate
through the blur of
nutrition information out
there and just about
anything nutrition-related
that the group may be
interested in.
just right for kids -
-
healthy kids are educated on
how to become healthy
adults. their sessions are
age appropriate, fun,
interactive and help to
develop positive attitudes
toward food and physical
activity. children are not
little adults, so it is
important to remember that
their bodies are growing and
require nutrition different
from that of adults. since
adults and children are two
completely different
entities, our approach to
treating them is different.
