Anita Nugent MS, RD, LD, CDCES
Anita has been in private practice for nine years. She has helped thousands of people navigate their plan for long term lifestyle changes. Working with them from the very beginning on a plan for their life long success.
I encourage people to look at a nutrition plan in a very different way, on their terms, and setting the stage for success. I will often encourage people to structure their food choices as:
1. Frequency
2. Portion
3. How is it prepared.
This helps to let people see that there are many different options and that food choices are abundant. This leads people to make choices on their terms, eating the foods they enjoy, while on their journey for healthier eating.
