I was overweight for a good amount of my life. From a very young age, I tried diet after diet. It was always a miserable process that yielded temporary results. I will never forget the excitement I felt during my first nutrition class in college. The topic of food and its profound impact on the body ignited a passion I was unaware existed. I realized that nutrition can revolutionize people’s lives in the best way possible. I quickly decided that I wanted to share this knowledge with everyone, and started my journey to become a registered dietitian.
