Success Stories

"I want to thank you for all your help. I could honestly say for the first time in my entire life I actually have a healthy relationship with food and I attribute most of that to you. I read the book "Intuitive Eating" over the summer, which was also phenomenal. The book really helped me come to terms with many of my issues. I can't say I am a true "intuitive eater", but I am getting there and I have definitely made progress. So, thank you!" Kristina, Boston, MA & NY, NY

"Thank you for all the wonderful information! You're such a terrific resource! You answered a lot of my questions and really helped me focus on what I need to improve upon." Kelley, Boston, MA

"Working with Robyn has provided immense benefits. She sees all the facets of my life, and understands the interactions between health, food, and stress. Robyn has counseled me primarily via telephone, a system that has worked with my travel schedule and has allowed us to maintain regular contact. Putting together a plan that took into consideration my past eating disorder, current health concerns, a hectic travel schedule and marathon training turned out to be a surprisingly manageable endeavor. I didn't feel overwhelmed. She created (and helped me stick to) a plan that made changes in "bite sized" increments. In short, she found an approach to health and nutrition that I can live (well) with." Bethany, Washington, D.C.

"After 3 months of suffering with intestinal problems and multiple visits with my
primary care and specialist (GI) physicians -- not to mention several not so
pleasant tests -- no one could diagnose my problem other than to say it was
nothing serious. It got lumped into the general category of 'irritable bowel
syndrome' and I was told to eat more fibers. Robyn helped me develop a more
comprehensive nutritional regime and incorporate some other holistic treatments
(like acupuncture and meditation) into my life so that literally within weeks
of starting the program she outlined my symptoms were gone! It wasn't a
miracle - just good common sense from a nutrition professional." Scott, Charlestown, MA

"I began working with Robyn with the goal of developing better eating habits. As a result of my sessions, I’ve begun to focus on an overall healthier lifestyle. Robyn's knowledge and guidance have both educated and motivated me. I've become disciplined in keeping a food diary and am learning to identify the good and bad choices I make each day. Robyn always focuses on the "good", reinforcing that behavior with menu planning tips and recipe ideas. Robyn has also encouraged me to continue with and build upon my exercise routine. She listens to my health concerns and provides suggestions for addressing those concerns. Robyn is a warm and personable individual and I am pleased to be working with her as I continue work on improving my health and eating habits." Barbara, Winchester, MA

"Soon after I began to get nutrition counseling from Robyn, I realized it was one of the best decisions I ever made. She quickly put me on an easy to understand plan to help me reach my goal. She spent time with me going over my eating habits, answering all my questions, and advising me how to make changes that would help me lose the weight. She also educated me on specific aspects of nutrition – helping me to understand the principles that would enable me to best go about losing weight. Within three weeks, I started to see results. I was able to get through my day without having to starve myself. I started to feel great and have more energy. The results I was seeing inspired me to keep going. Robyn is a fountain of knowledge, and her caring, charismatic personality will help anyone who needs a supportive "coach" to help them along." Rob, Los Angeles, CA

"Robyn's ideas and approach toward weight loss management for me as an individual have made my weight loss goals much more attainable.  With her encouragement and support, I have been able to make better, more satisfying food choices, and have learned portion control without being extremely restrictive. I believe this is why I have been able to more easily maintain my weight loss over time. Her guidance in implementing an exercise program that I can actually do and fit into an already hectic schedule has proven invaluable.  Robyn's assistance spells success!" Peggy, Cambridge, Massachusetts

""Robyn has given me the insight to understand the benefits and importance of making positive food choices, as well as providing me with unconditional support and guidance in my goal to reach a healthy weight." Nancy, Boston, MA
