Frequently Asked Questions

Are you going to tell me what to eat?

No. Prescriptive diets only last as long as we are on them. The Kaizen Weigh is about making small changes over time starting with where you are right now. This leads to lasting results because what develops is a way of eating that fits into your lifestyle and with food that you actually like.

The program includes a food guide packet that acts as a guide for setting action steps along with our 1:1 session discussions.

What happens during the 1-on-1 sessions?

The 1-on-1 sessions are custom tailored to you. The sessions are for us to discuss questions about the video, what went well, what your obstacles and challenges are, and to set action steps for the following week.

How much time per week do I need to spend on this program?

The videos average about 18 minutes a week plus our 30-minute 1-on-1 session each week. Beyond this, you can take on as much or as little change as fits into your lifestyle.

Do you work with Vegans and Vegetarians?

Yes. There are specific needs for vegan and vegetarian athletes and I strongly encourage anyone eating this way to work with a Nutritionist such as myself to make sure those needs are being met.

As a prior vegan athlete I can also relate to many of the challenges experienced with this way of eating.

Do I have to live in Colorado to Participate?

No, our program is offered virtually.

Are you a Dietitian?

Good Question! I am a Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) which requires a Master's Degrees in Nutrition, plus a 1000 hour supervised-internship, and passing a comprehensive exam. Dieticians, while somewhat comparable, only require a Bachelor's degree and a 900 hour supervised-internship. Dieticians are regulated by a different board than CNS's.

As a CNS, I am trained to look at the whole person. I consider an individual's unique health concerns, challenges, lifestyle, and wants to determine the best course of action. With my extensive training and practice as a health coach, I also offer coaching skills to help you stay motivated and overcome barriers to change!

Educated at one of the most esteemed functional nutrition institutions, you can be sure that I am taking all aspects of health and wellbeing into account when we meet!

Can I take your course without doing the 1-on-1 sessions?

As of right now, no. But please email me at info@kaizenlifenutrition if you are interested in this option.

Will I see results?

You will get out of the program what you put into it. Change takes time, patience, and consistency.
