Am I Ready to See a Nutritionist?

​This is a subject that I’ve been debating writing about but I’ve decided to do it since I feel it’s important to me in order to do my job the best way I can.  I am just starting in this nutrition business and I have to admit that it hasn’t been easy.  I’m just going to come out and say it…if you are looking for quick and easy fixes then I’m not the person for you.  There! Plain and simple, black on white, there it is.  I know that a lot of people think they understand this and still think they are ready to make some changes but as soon as I tell them my recommendations, they decide It’s too difficult and some don’t even try!  They run the other way.  I’m not an evil being trying to deprive you of all your “little pleasures”.  If I tell you that what you are eating is causing your complaints and issues (this could range from weight gain to blood sugar imbalances to acne and bloating) then maybe it’s time you stop eating those foods and try something new.  If a doctor said you were allergic to peanuts, would you eat them?  If a doctor gives you a pill to “fix” your stomach issues or headache, do you take it?  Yes, you do, why?  Did you know that most doctors don’t have nutrition courses in medical school?  Am I saying you shouldn’t listen to your doctor?  Of course not.  I am saying that if you seek help from a nutritionist then why aren’t you doing what he/she recommends?  In order to make changes in life, whatever it might be, it takes sacrifice and dedication.  You don’t get something for nothing.  There are no magic pills or miracle solutions for nutrition.  You need to understand that you will have to make some changes, sometimes big, sometimes small, in order to better your health and well being.  Please if you are thinking of hiring me to help you with your dietary lifestyle, come ready and come with an open mind.  You must be prepared to not like what I have to tell you and you must be prepared to do it anyways and reap the benefits.  It is a process that can take over a year for some people depending on their health issues.  I am not writing this to discourage you from seeking nutritional counseling, I am simply preparing you to face the fact that things that are worth doing are most times difficult to do, or else everybody would be doing it.
