hi.
I’m Jessica.
Before I became a Registered Dietitian, I spent a year in Germany. Yes, THE Germany that’s known for their exquisite chocolate.
Every street corner offered candies, chocolates, and pastries that were so unique, I couldn’t pass them up! So I would vow to limit myself to one a day.
I would try to resist temptation all day, or try to find a way to earn a treat by going for an extra walk. Then I would criticize myself for being weak and giving in.
I’d go back and forth in this exhausting mental tug of war, and I would still always finish the whole package by nightfall.
I hated the way food had control over me. It NEVER satisfied me, and I felt stuffed and gross.
Does that sound familiar to you?

Do any of these sound like you?
- When I snack, I eat until all the food is gone
- I feel guilty about enjoying food
- I don't have enough willpower
- I go to bed at night regretting my eating choices
- I struggle to control how much I eat
- I'm tired of trying different diets
THAT WAS ME
until...
When I started my nutrition degree, I learned the psychological factors behind overeating.
I studied the attitudes it takes to make smart food choices.
I realized that there were scientific explanations for why I never felt satisfied, and couldn’t go the day without finishing those chocolate bars!
This information was like nothing I’d ever heard before.
It’s not talked about because it’s not a quick fix. You can’t bundle it up and market it on infomercials. It takes time, and it takes work.
But it can be done – and the effects last forever.
I’m happy to say that I no longer overeat!
I’m now confident about my food choices.
I eat healthy meals, but I also enjoy indulgent meals, desserts, and snacks. I’ve learned that, unlike the fad diets would like us to believe, all foods have their place!
I’m now secure in the knowledge that I can enjoy a sensible amount and stop eating whenever I want.
Instead of food having control over me, I have control over food and wow, does it ever feel good!
This is a feeling of freedom.
anybody can do this
This is what gets me really passionate.
You might be thinking that you’re too far gone, you love snacks too much, you’ve tried everything to lose weight and failed…
You’re wrong.
I know you’re wrong because I know that babies don’t overeat.
We are all born with the natural instinct to eat when we’re hungry, and stop when we’re full.
You still have that natural instinct within you.
I want to help you rediscover it.
Rediscover what it’s like to eat without worry
You don’t have to fret over fat grams, carbohydrates, or calories.
You CAN learn to listen to what your body is telling you.
You’ll no longer have to worry about restricting food once you
tap back in to your eating instincts.
