• Why Healthy Life and Nutrition?

  Comprehensive Programs:
  Here at Healthy Life and Nutrition we focus on nutrition and fitness. Research has shown that you need both nutritious foods and exercise to achieve your best results. The key is to make the necessary changes to rev up your metabolism and feed your body with high quality foods.

  Individualized Program:
  Since no two people are alike with similar body types and metabolism, it's important to design individualized health plans. We take your personal anthropometric measurements, goals you want to achieve, health history, and fitness history to design a custom program perfect for you.

  Educational:
  In order to continue your success, it's important that you understand the underlying health and nutrition issues. We help to explain these issues with our educational sessions. In our programs, an educational module is presented each week to increase your knowledge in the field of health and nutrition. These sessions include information on fat and cholesterol, exercise and your metabolism, sugar, glycemic index, food labels, and much more. Again, knowledge is power! Not only do we want you to achieve the health results you are looking for, but we want you to be informed. This will help you continue your healthy lifestyle for years to come.

  

  Dietitian Supervised:
  Our programs are unique because you have the opportunity to consult with a registered dietitian throughout the program. Continued supervision is available as you progress. We will review your goals, give feedback and make new recommendations.

  At Home Privacy:
  Yes it's true! No appointments to make and no traveling to a consultation. Everything is conducted from the privacy of your home.

  Client Paced:
  Another highlight of the programs involves the time to complete your sessions. Once you feel you have mastered one week you simply move on to the next. If you want to redo another week, it's up to you. You progress at your own pace.

• How It Works?

  

  The Healthy Life and Nutrition programs are perfect if you want to lose weight and obtain knowledge in nutrition. Your nutrition assessment is customized detailing your calorie goals with the appropriate number of carbohydrate, protein, and fat food BARS. Simple and fun tools to make losing weight easy!

  What is a Food BAR?

  A food BAR is a food group arranged by similarities in food values. Bread is in the same food BAR (carbohydrate) as cereal, pasta or potatoes. Oils and nuts are in the same food BAR (fat) as salad dressing and margarine. Fish and poultry are in the same food BAR (lean meat) as low-fat cheese and eggs. You will receive your personalized meal plan (total number of carbohydrate, protein, and fat blocks) when you register for one of our weight loss programs.

  Food BAR Tools

  We have developed two tools to keep track of your calories without the hassle of counting calories. These include the Food BAR Tracker and Food BAR Calculator. Simply plug in the numbers into the calculator and it will compute the number of carbohydrate, fat, and protein Food BARS. To keep track of your Food BARS simply click on the appropriate Food BAR under each food category. Once you have eaten your recommended BARS for the day, you're done. It's that simple.

  Example Meal Plan:
  1600 Calories
  • 12 Carbohydrate BARs • 9 Lean Protein BARs • 5 Fat BARs

  Food BAR Tracker
