I went on my first diet as a dietitian and it’s the most successful diet I’ve ever done started. -10 lbs in 8 weeks. In my lifetime I’ve tried clean eating, low carb, high protein, flexible dieting/counting macros, pescatarian, vegetarian, and even Atkins in my younger days. Never had I lost as much weight by […]
I was not lucky enough to get accepted into the first dietetic internship I applied to, which was a Coordinated Dietetic Program (CDP) where I didn’t have to go through DICAS. My dreams were to get into this CDP and only this CDP because it was the very first thing I learned about when I […]
I know I promised to write this a while ago, but I finally got to getting it done… Here are a few things that worked for me while being a dietetic intern: Dietetic Intern Key to Success #1: Google Calendar One of the most helpful ways to success during a DI (and in your personal […]
Happy Monday, everyone! I want to share some healthy meals as a reminder to always stay meal-prepared, so you can nourish yourself properly no matter what gets in the way! Do any of you ever find yourself forgetting that you have ingredients or already prepped food in the fridge? That happens to me all the […]

This was especially convenient for the day I had during a rotation where I was on the road travelling from to site to site. I actually ate […]
Here’s my meal prep for the week! Not a fancy dish, although it does look like it. Just plain, simple soyaki chicken over brown rice with half of my plate filled with veggies!!! Beets and beet greens are so delicious. BEETS are one of the healthiest vegetables on this planet. Fresh beets have a natural […]
I bought this cookies & creme protein powder from Muscle Milk recently and didn’t end up liking the way it tasted, even though I love cookies and cream. I decided to use it to make cottage cheese pancakes since I also had leftover cottage cheese. How convenient! The combination of flavors tasted great! Using cottage cheese sounded weird to […]
Grocery shopping for one is just as hard as shopping for 10! Writing out my meals for the week keeps me under budget and quantity, so food doesn’t get wasted. This is what I usually do before I head out to the market. 1. First, ponder what you would like to eat for the week. […]
Happy Spring, everyone! I’m so sorry that I missed a post, but last week was extremely hectic with taking a field trip with all the other interns to visit the State Capitol in Sacramento, starting a new rotation and volunteering for National Nutrition Month. The workload is piling up and I’m starting to feel the […]
Happy Monday, everyone! Spring is just around the corner and I am very, very excited! A really good friend of mine gave me this mason herb garden kit and I finally had time to plant some seeds. It’s only been a little over two weeks and the parlsey is already sprouting! I’m really happy about getting this mini garden started […]
