What Exactly is Nutrition Coaching?

 

Nutrition Coach Kate’s approach to diets is very individualized, but there are a few steps in the process that are consistent with each client.

The first step is a complimentary hour long assessment during which Kate gets to know your exercise and diet history, food restrictions and struggles, goals, medical history, liquid consumption, biofeedback (sleep, stress, recovery, performance), and more. This is a judgement-free process and is done to collect as much data as possible on your habits in order to cater a personalized approach to your goal.

After the assessment, you will get upwards of four 30 minute check-ins per month that are done in-person or virtually; of course, nutrition is 24/7 so Kate also encourages regular text messages and emails with questions or concerns! 

Throughout the coaching process, you will be asked to track all your food and caloric beverages. At this point, Kate will generally divide her clients into two categories: people who like tracking calories and macros, or people who prefer to track portions and habits. The former is done through apps like MyFitnessPal, while the latter can be done with pen and paper or food picture diary apps like Ate. With these weekly snapshots, Kate can make tailored recommendations to your diet to help you stay accountable and on track.

Nutrition coaching is not a meal plan or prescribed crash diet. This is a partnership that helps you discover a sustainable approach to nutrition that will allow you to live happily with your food choices, perform the best to your ability, and achieve your desired body aesthetic.
