This is not your average weight loss program. As registered dietitians who work with clients towards sustainable weight management on a regular basis, we know that you need (and deserve) adequate time to make new concepts become habits.

By investing the time now, we know you can save yourself a lot of time (and money) on something that truly works rather than on temporary fixes. 

Insurance-based counseling is based off the approval of your insurance provider and specific plan, and only covers 1:1 visits with a dietitian. Many plans may have specific limits on visits or require certain health diagnoses. While 1:1 nutritional counseling itself can be very helpful for a variety of conditions, we find that specifically for weight management, continuous support and ongoing accountability is the game changer in achieving your goals and keeping them.

We developed this program because the structure that insurance-based counseling allowed for weight loss was not often sufficient for effective change. Clients needed additional support and sometimes felt they would "fall off the wagon," prolonging their health journey

Great question!

There’s the saying “all dietitians are nutritionists, but not all nutritionists are dietitians.” It’s a little confusing, but the difference is that anyone can proclaim themselves as a nutritionist. They may have a keen interest in nutrition and may have studied some.

A registered dietitian however is a credentialed healthcare provider that must receive at least a Bachelor of Science in nutrition, complete post-graduate coursework and an intense internship of over 1000 supervised hours in clinical, business, and community dietetics, then pass a gnarly registration exam in order to become credentialed. Then, in Texas, they are required to become licensed by the state. They must then complete at least 75 hours of continuing education every 5-year cycle and more if they have other certifications.

When needing nutrition guidance, we always recommend seeking a registered dietitian, especially if you have medical conditions.

One that is balanced and that can be sustained for life. We will show you how to accomplish that! If you are on a diet at this very moment, ask yourself if you can eat that way for the rest of your life. 

We live in a world of so much “right now” that it is very easy to forget the long-term consequences. For those who diet cycle, or “yo-yo diet” frequently, it can cause disordered eating patterns, poor relationships with food (often fear) and difficulty with metabolism and losing weight in the future.

At Food 4 Success, we also often see individuals develop digestive problems, have injuries, or develop vitamin/mineral deficiencies from not getting balanced nutrition that can lead to a whole other domino effect of complications.
