Simple Well Being

I signed up for Linda’s nutrition coaching mainly to score points
with my wife, who was looking to lose weight but couldn’t justify the
cost of doing it alone. So being the heroic husband, we signed up
together. I’m a more or less typical 40-​year-​old overstressed,
overworked professional male and was surprised to discover that I got
as much out of Linda’s tutelage as my wife did — and maybe more. Two
of my big problems were a lack of sleep/​energy and an over-​reliance on
sugar and caffeine, which had me yo-yo’ing throughout the typical work
day. Linda refashioned my diet to give me more energy, more
consistently, throughout the day, all but eliminating my crashes,
which cut my need for caffeine intake in half. She did it without
forcing me to eat anything weird or radical, and I didn’t have to give
up morning coffee, beer or wine. Basically, she came into our pantry,
scouted it out, and simply replaced my old (not so great) eating
habits with much healthier new ones. I travel a lot for business, and
she also gave me a list of what to order, and what not to order, at
popular restaurants like Starbucks, which has also been a huge help.
Besides a general boost in mental clarity and energy level, the new
eating habits — I was pleased to discover — also helped me sleep
much better. And my digestion (presumably from eliminating nasty,
processed chemicals) is suddenly like that of a teenager. Happily, all
these changes have stuck — it was really just a matter of being
educating and gravitating to a new, healthier set of habits. I can’t
recommend Linda highly enough.

Working with Linda has been life changing! She quickly helped me establish my nutritional goals and began helping me meet them in interactive sessions that were both challenging and enjoyable. Linda is a wealth of knowledge on nutrition and healthy living, I’ve learned so much in the 4 months that we’ve been working together. She is enthusiastic and motivating — and her cooking classes are fantastic!
