As I get older the more I understand that most , but not all, of our health problems are self inflicted. Most people do not do this on purpose but they struggle with HOW to separate the facts from fiction . Once they  know what to do, or think they do, then the problem is HOW to do it. I think most people would agree that we should stay away from processed foods, drink more water, move regularly, manage stress levels, get good quality sleep, balance hormones, have healthy relationships, etc. but with so much information being thrown at you on every news and social media outlet it is difficult to create a plan that works for YOU. This is where I can help.

There are lots of “weight loss” plans on the market with different approaches. Most of them have lots of valid points to help shred unwanted pounds that are most likely causing problems from joint pain, brain fog, poor sleep, fatigue, chronic diseases, etc. The problem for most people is not losing weight but maintaining it. The surge in weight loss medications such as Ozempic and Mounjaro can be helpful as valuable short term tools for many people that were stuck in their weight loss journey.  The biggest challenge is what comes next. The expense and side effects of these medications can pose problems long term so it is necessary to create strategies to be able to maintain the weight loss .

As a nutritionist and health coach I continue to educate myself on the latest studies and data to improve the health of myself, my family, and my clients. I walk the walk and talk the talk. As a menopausal woman I struggle with the same challenges as other women my age but in my profession I dig through all the information so my clients don’t have to. Think of me as your cliff notes version for life. Some of my clients joke and say to themselves, ” What would Jody do ? ”

The New Year is the perfect time to discover HOW to stop making excuses and make discoveries and finally improve your health once and for all.
