Frequently Asked Questions

A nutrition coach helps you bridge the gap between knowing what to do and actually doing it. You probably already know that you need to move more and eat more whole foods, but making those changes stick can be difficult. That’s where a nutrition coach comes in. We work together to create realistic, sustainable habits that fit your lifestyle. Through personalized guidance, accountability, and strategies for behavior change, I help you break through the barriers that have kept you from reaching your health and wellness goals. It's not just about knowing what to do, but making it happen for the long term. 

Currently I only offer 3,6, and 12 month package sessions.  I believe that the road to a healthier lifestyle takes time so that old habits can be broken and new healthier habits can be formed.  

No, unless you have fitness and/or physique goals that require it, or we you want to go for it!  I try to keep my coaching as simple as possible.  Calorie counting can be time consuming and become an obsession.  Instead I use hand size portions to estimate energy intake.  

First of all I don't see failure but I do see feedback.  You haven't given up and keep trying even when your plan didn't work.  Propel Nutrition Coaching is unique in that we won't make any big changes.  We will make sure any lifestyle adjustments we do make are things that are sustainable and you can do consistently.  We will master the fundamentals before we move on to more complicated tasks.  If anything isn't working we can always adjust and modify your plan as you see fit.

Yes and no!  We will work together to explore the foods you enjoy and like to make.  You will never have to worry about sticking to a regimented menu.  After all, we are working for skills that you can maintain your entire life. 

As a Nutrition Coach I am not licensed to prescribe medication or to make a medical diagnosis. I can work with your health care team and any nutritional recommendations, you have been given, to help coach you through any dietary changes.
