What have you learned through nutrition coaching?

The biggest thing I’ve learned in the last 3 months is that you don’t have to be perfect but you need to be consistent for results. I’ve had a few meals that slid off plan, but a vast majority have been to the macros Krista has set for me. 

What is the biggest thing you’ve changed that has most led to your success? 

The biggest thing has been a mental shift from “you have to be perfect”. I’m consistent 90-95% of the time and there have been weeks where I’m 100%, but I also went on a honeymoon, celebrated some birthdays and navigated a few holidays. Allowing myself a little grace and then getting back on the wagon immediately has allowed me to keep going. Before I would have used those occasions as an excuse to not try. 

What advice do you have for someone considering nutrition coaching?

I’d say make the investment in yourself and trust your coach. It’s not hard- just takes consistency and there’s a team of people behind the scenes cheering you on!!
