You Are What You Eat: The Basics About Food

Learn about food and how to eat right at iNSiDE Out STUDiO barre with Craig Pollard of AFitter.Me to guide you. We have worked with enough people over the years to know that fads and gimmicks do not work. If you’re like most people, then you probably just need to understand food better. This 6-session course teaches you the basics–what food is (carbs, protein, fats, when you should be eating, and what food does for your body.

The Sessions

The session structure is simple. Together, we will:

Identify your goals.
Track what you are currently eating.
Learn the basics about food and its effect on your body.
Change what you eat and when you eat it so you can reach your goals.
We work with you closely for 5 weeks. Each week, you and Craig will review your last weeks’ eating and discuss the progress you are making. And then you are on your own for 30 days after which we have a final meeting to see how you’ve been doing on your own and what you have learned about food and about yourself.

Support from Start to Finish

When making a lifestyle change, one of the key success factors is having the support you need to make those changes. When you sign up for You Are What You Eat, each session is with Craig himself… you will never get passed to someone else. Your session meetings can be done face-to-face or over Skype, whichever works best for you. Between sessions, you can always reach out to Craig for support by e-mail or text message.

Knowledge is Power

If you, like so many others, just want to achieve a healthier lifestyle, then You Are What You Eat is perfect for you. Professional trainers like Craig understand that only 20% of your fitness goals happen in the gym. 80% of your lifestyle change needs to happen in the kitchen. Pre-made meal plans don’t work because you can only eat what you’ve been told to eat. You haven’t been taught why.

Our solution is to teach you what foods your body needs, how much them and when is the best time to eat. By understanding what proteins, carbohydrates and fats are, and in which foods you find them, no matter where you are you can choose a delicious and satisfying meal that will fit your nutritional needs.

In addition to the nutritional guidance, we can offer assistance in creating workout plans that will help you reach your goals.
