A diet isn't always something you do to lose weight.
A diet includes everything that voyages down that impressive food tube--be it nutritious, artery-occluding, tasteless, or delicious.
​
By using my prescription tool below, you can access a personalized diet prescription that spells out what your body is begging you for today.
Reminder: this is NOT a weight loss plan. Losing weight requires operating within a caloric deficit, created through either diet, exercise, or better yet, both. The prescription below describes what your body needs (to healthily sustain), in its current state, maintaining the status quo.
​
If your goal is to lose weight, consult a physician before starting an exercise program and aim for a healthy loss of 1-2 pounds of fat each week.
​
A single pound of fat stores approximately 3,500 calories; in order to recompose 3,500 calories in a week (7 days), a 500-calorie deficit each day is recommended.
Similarly, a 1,000-calorie/day deficit would convert 2 pounds of fat in a week.

ALL excess macronutrients get stored as fat (yes, even the beloved protein).
