I’m pretty sure that if you’re over the age of 25 you’ve most likely tried at least 1 fad diet. Over the age of 30 and you’ve probably tried 2. Over the age of 35-40 and that number probably doubles or triples.
The longer you’ve been around the more fads you’ve seen come through the nutrition marketplace. In addition, as we rotate around the sun more and more times in our life (aka “get older” – rotate just sounds better) we experience the lovely changes that come with age like slowed metabolism, postpartum bodies, hormone changes, job stress – the list goes on.
This makes for a messy situation. Desperate to see change. Overwhelmed by choice. Frozen with overwhelm.
Type in the words “best diet” in Google and you’ll get 890 million hits.
Where would one even start with something like that??
At CrossFit Hutt Valley Nutrition, we believe that something as fundamental as Nutrition shouldn’t be complicated. Food is fuel at it’s purest definition and it can either help us or harm us.
We also believe that changes to your body (both outer and inner) are best done at a rate that is sustainable and realistic.
Quick fix fad diets and supplements are short term (and often drastic) solutions that provide instant (and only potential) results. 80% of people who lose weight in this manner WILL gain the weight back – often plus some.
So, how do we create permanent change?
With a Nutrition Coach, you’ve got a pretty good chance.
1.) We make S.M.A.R.T. goals together:
Specific
Measurable
Attainable
Realistic
Time Sensitive
2.) We keep it simple and build off SMALL changes one at a time to gradually reach BIG success.
3.) We together decide on realistic and actionable steps that fit your lifestyle, preferences and desires.
4.) We track results closely. We recommend regular progress pictures each week to indicate the success we’re experiencing. Spending too much time on the scale can be a very negative feedback loop.
Let’s get the ball rolling today. Book your appt with us and we can come up with a game plan. Best part? Your first session with us is FREE!
