✨ Proof that you don’t need another fad diet ✨
When you find an approach that actually fits your lifestyle, the results speak for themselves. 💬

I love when clients share how sustainable changes—not restriction—finally make things click. 🫶

✨ If you’ve ever felt like calorie counting should be working but it just…isn’t — you’re not alone. ✨

The truth is, our bodies aren’t calculators. Calories in vs. calories out oversimplifies a very complex system.
👉 Macros matter.
👉 Protein is your fat loss superpower.
👉 Tracking apps aren’t as precise as you think.

If you feel stuck, it’s not YOU — it’s the method. Calorie counting can be a helpful tool, but it’s not the only way. Focusing on balanced meals, satiety, and sustainable habits is what actually moves the needle. 💪

💡 3 Things Every Woman Should Know About Metabolism 💡

1️⃣ It’s more than calories. Metabolism isn’t just how fast you burn energy—it’s every process that keeps your body running. Hormones like estrogen + progesterone shift metabolism throughout your cycle, pregnancy, and menopause.

2️⃣ Muscle = metabolic gold. Muscle tissue burns more energy than fat, even at rest. Women naturally lose muscle with age, which can slow metabolism—but strength training + protein help protect it.

3️⃣ Metabolic health ≠ weight. You can be a “healthy weight” and still have blood sugar swings, high cholesterol, or hormonal imbalances. True metabolic health means stable energy, hormones, and reduced risk of chronic disease.

✨ Your metabolism is complex, powerful, and influenced by more than diet alone.

Stop trying to “save” calories by eating small meals in the beginning part of the day! It’s not working! I can’t tell you how many clients consume a less than 200 calorie breakfast or no breakfast at all and then consume 1800 calories between the hours of 4pm and 10pm 🤦🏻‍♀️

Eat breakfast. Two eggs is not enough food (or protein)! Aim for 30g, this can be done by adding an additional egg, 2 slices of whole wheat toast with some peanut butter. Breakfast is a great place to utilize Greek yogurt, cottage cheese and or protein powders to meet protein needs.

Don’t be afraid to snack. When you go hours without eating you’re more likely to over eat at the next meal.

Snacking throughout the day or making your meals larger in the beginning part of the day will prevent you from eating your entire house when you get home from work.

Trust me on this one. 👊🏻

✨ Eating healthy but the scale’s still creeping up? ✨
Here are 5 sneaky reasons why weight gain can still happen — even with “good” food choices:

1️⃣ Portion control – Yes, avocado and nut butter are healthy, but calories still count.
2️⃣ Liquid calories – Coffee drinks, smoothies, cocktails… they add up fast.
3️⃣ Stress – High cortisol can make your body hold onto weight.
4️⃣ Hormonal shifts – Things like thyroid changes can slow metabolism.
5️⃣ Low daily movement – Sedentary jobs = fewer calories burned. Exercise matters!

You’re allowed to outgrow “all or nothing” thinking — especially when it comes to nutrition. ✨

Building sustainable habits doesn’t mean being perfect. It means choosing progress over extremes, consistency over restriction, and giving yourself permission to show up even if it’s not 100%.

Your health journey isn’t black or white — it’s a whole lot of grace in the middle. 🤍

Feeling overwhelmed? Start here. 💛
When stress hits, it’s easy to forget to eat—or reach for something that won’t actually help. These 8 simple snack pairings are easy to make and satisfying—each one combines two food groups to help support your body and mood.

Think:
🥜 Banana + peanut butter
🍓 Greek yogurt + berries
🥕 Carrots + hummus
🍒 Yogurt-dipped cherries
🧀 Cheese stick + almonds
🫑 Bell pepper + guac
🍑 Cottage cheese + peaches
🥬 Celery + cream cheese

✨ Save this for the next time you’re overwhelmed and don’t know what to eat.
You deserve nourishment—even in the chaos.

Struggling with cravings all day long?
Before you blame willpower… try this 👇

These 3 things might just change everything when it comes to your energy, cravings, and how your body feels:

1️⃣ A balanced breakfast with protein helps curb those late-day cravings.
2️⃣ Hydration—because your body sometimes confuses thirst for hunger.
3️⃣ Sleep—yes, not getting enough can actually increase your hunger hormones.

OR sometimes it's as simple as honoring that craving and moving on

No gimmicks, just small shifts that actually work. 💛

In honor of ..... allow me to reintroduce myself and my new brand look

Hi! I'm Aurora, registered dietitian and owner of Nourish RD. Since 2021, I have been working in nursing homes and currently oversee nursing home dietitians! Don't you worry I still have plenty of time to provide one on one nutrition counseling and medical nutrition therapy.

I created Nourish RD as a way to provide accessible nutrition care both in person and virtually. I love women's health but am well versed in most chronic illness management.

Most of my clients will vouch that my approach is nonjudgmental and digestible (pun intended).
