If you are actually putting castor oil in your belly button, covering it up, and praying to see the scale go down - we need to talk.

20 years ago, I would be first on the list to try ALLLL the fads because I was depressed, unhappy, and OBSESSED with losing weight.

Thank god there was no social media when I was growing up, (I honestly don’t know how you true Millenials and beyond have survived). If there had been Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok, when I was a teen or young adult, I am certain I would have serious issues 😣.

Back in the 90s, Seventeen magazine was bad enough to make me feel like I wasn’t skinny or pretty enough. But my friends? They were effortlessly thin, ate whatever they wanted, and got all the attention. I craved that. From 7th grade through college, I felt completely out of place.

The path of literal obsession is to be as skinny as my flock of gorgeous friends, while not fully letting everyone know my obsession for fear of being cast out is how I ended up as a Registered Dietitian.

I didn’t realize it then, but I was so focused on my weight and how I looked that I didn’t know what to study in college, so I stuck with what I was interested, er, obsessed with, so I picked Health Science.

After I graduated, I didn’t have a plan of what to do with my Health Science degree and decided to pursue Personal Training, which, ugh, was also not what I needed to do as a career.

I was in Florida at the time, 22 years old surrounded by peers who were all training for a bodybuilding competition. It was then that I realized that working out is incredibly important for changing how you look, but nutrition is actually the game-changer!

That led me to become a Registered Dietitian and SPOILER: I still didn’t figure out the magic of what it takes to lose weight until years later.

I was a good 30lbs heavier (my heaviest) when I graduated from my dietetic internship. But all of these experiences led me to what I know to be true to this day, that if you don’t like what you are doing to lose weight, you WILL NOT KEEP IT OFF!

My goal starting this Substack is to provide REAL, RELATABLE information, news and stories about weight loss, health, fitness, and lifestyle. Not just my journey over my 44 years, but from the 100’s and perhaps at this point 1000’s of clients I have worked with over the last 15+ years of being an RD.

No magic here, but I promise to always bring the truth and NO B.S.

Who’s with me?
