Creating an approach to food that works for you -
Diets aren’t the answer. There is no one right way to eat.
Figuring out what to eat and how to navigate our incredibly abundant food supply is challenging for most people. More information doesn’t seem to be the answer. Maybe it is time to find out what approach to food works for you, than listening to one more relative, friend, or expert tell you how to eat. (MORE….)
There is more nutrition information available today than ever before, and it doesn’t seem to help people bridge the gap between knowledge and behavior. Maybe it’s time for a different strategy. Let Bonnie help you develop an approach to food that works for you.
Counseling with Bonnie is more collaboration than instruction. This is a chance to be truly heard and have your concerns and personal experiences taken into consideration. You know what you like, and what you don’t. You may know where you want to go but not how to get there. My mission is to help you develop an approach to food that works for you in the real world.
