Let's take this journey one step at a time!
Step 1
Before we dive into strategies or meal plans, we’ll start by defining a clear, meaningful goal together. This isn’t just about weight or macros, it’s about identifying what truly matters to you, whether that’s feeling more energized, building strength, improving your relationship with food, or simply showing up for yourself consistently. A well-defined goal gives us direction, purpose, and a way to measure progress that feels empowering and not overwhelming
Step 2
Once your goal is clear, we’ll calculate your personalized energy needs and how much fuel your body requires to function, move, and thrive. This isn’t about restriction; it’s about clarity. We’ll factor in your lifestyle, activity level, and body composition to estimate a sustainable calorie range that supports your goal whether that’s fat loss, muscle gain, or improved energy. From there, we’ll build habits around nourishment, not numbers. We will look at protein, fat and carbs intake.
Step 3
Protein plays a key role in body composition, recovery, and appetite regulation especially when you're working toward fat loss or muscle gain. Based on your goal and body weight, we’ll set a personalized protein target, typically between 1.2 to 2.2 grams per kilogram per day. This range supports lean mass retention, metabolic health, and satiety. Don’t worry we’ll break it down into simple, doable meals and snacks that fit your lifestyle and preferences.
Step 4
Fat is essential not just for hormone production and brain health, but for flavor, satisfaction, and nutrient absorption. Based on your total calorie needs, we’ll set a fat intake target that typically falls between 20 to 35% of your daily calories. This range supports your goals while keeping meals enjoyable and balanced. We’ll focus on quality sources like avocado, nuts, seeds, olive oil, and fatty fish, and tailor your intake to fit your preferences and lifestyle.
