.Hi Reginald, how are you doing? Thanks for being my friend. I would like to share some things with you. I struggle with my nutrition, I am a very picky eater always have been. If food does not look good or smell good I will not eat it even though I know it is good for the body(example: turnip greens stinks to me when cooking). This year when I had my annual physical which I have every year in June. I learned that my body is lacking vitaminB-12 and vitaminD which is very critical for my body. I need a nutritional plan that might change my eating habits and get me out of this picky eating phase. I do wanna change my way of eating. Can you assist me on this? Thanks Justine

I sure can! I actually create nutrition programs for people based on the foods they enjoy. Many people I talk to are shocked to see that they are actually healthy eaters but all they needed was a structured program. If you're interested in me creating you a program let me know and I'll send you my nutrition composition sheet I have all of my clients fill out and then create you a couple of meal plans to see what you think about them.

Hey Reginald, I am sorry about the late response but some how I missed your response. Things have changed since my last message, I was just diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I am totally shocked, I guess all these years of being a picky eater and a junk food junky Lol! has caught up with me. I am taking a pill to control the diabetes, have to change my diet and exercise. I am not use to eating three meals/snacks a day. I really appreciate your response back and any help is appreciated. Thanks Justine

I am on the pills,2 pills 2x a day. I have tried the exercise,the diet which I only gained more.I didn't know at the time but now, I realize that I am addicted to food. I would love for you to send me one of your plans.
Thanks Vickie

Dear Vickie,

Sounds like what we need to do is become more consistent with your workout program and find a meal plan program that you would enjoy. There's nothing wrong with enjoying food but it's the kind of foods we eat that causes the problems. this week what I want you to do is write down everything you eat and then send it to me so I can provide you with some suggestions to alter your current eating habits.

Hello Reginald,
First I'd like to say that I do not have any health issues or take any prescription medications which is amazing considering my family history. I must say that it is a must that I loose weight to remain healthy. I took a step to join a gyp but sometimes I feel so overwhelmed because I don't always know what to do to target areas of my body. I've noticed the photos on the machines but the machine is not always user friendly. I want to target my back, sides and stomach most of all. What do you suggest as a routine? Thanks in advance for your comments.
