My approach
[Inclusive -Realistic - Kind]
Respect of the culture
Impossible that I'd tell you to stop eating white rice or plantains! Respecting and maintaining cultural dietary habits is necessary for physical and mental well-being. In addition, I can assure you that cultural food is nutritious and that is why I have been talking about it since the start of my career.
Advice adapted to your reality
I do not offer one-size-fits-all solutions, but rather personalized advice that fits your daily life. This is why I do not give pre-made food plans (menus) or diets. Since they're not individualized, they are rarely durable. What works for one person won't necessarily work for another. However, I can help you create and plan your menus. My approach aims to support you in adopting realistic, gradual and lasting (lifetime) changes.
Focused on lifestyle habits
Achievement of objectives is assessed based on changes in habits and improvement in quality of life (e.g. increased energy, better quality of sleep, reduction in bloating, etc.). It's not focused on weight lost or calories consumed.
Studies show that diets do not work in the long term for the vast majority of individuals. Also, weight is a multifactorial component including modifiable factors (e.g. diet, physical activity, stress level) but also non-modifiable factors (e.g. genetics, age, diet history, socio-economic status, etc.).
Knowing that we are not 100% in control of our weight, I find it best not to promise weight loss. Not to mention that diets come with their share of undesirable consequences (e.g. stress, digestive problems, nutritional deficiencies, etc.). This is not to say that weight loss is impossible, but it is much more interesting to focus on what is in our control and what we can feel quickly!
