When it comes to adjusting your personal approach to nutrition, it’s not 100% about what you eat. While that’s definitely a huge part of it, a well-rounded approach to nutrition also covers how you feel about what you eat, how much you eat, who you eat with, what you’re doing while you eat, what your knowledge level is in terms of what your body even wants you to eat – we could keep going. The key is, a nutrition coach is equipped to help you understand the best approach for you – and that means the best approach for your body and mind.
How do you know if working with a nutrition coach is for you? Honestly, it’s just a matter of whether or not you want some guidance to get on the track you want to be on. Nutrition coach will be helpful for you if:
- You want to lose weight in a healthy, sustainable way.
