Frequently asked questions

The first session lasts about 45-60 minutes. We talk about your health history, medications, eating habits, daily routine and expectations, and take measurements such as height, weight and waist circumference. At the end of the session, we plan together how to build your personalised nutrition plan and how follow-up will work.

It helps to bring blood test results from the last three months, a list of the medications and supplements you take, and any reports or recommendations from your physician. If possible, briefly noting what you eat for a few days before the session makes it easier for us to review your habits together.

Online sessions take place via video call applications. Once your appointment is confirmed, I send you the meeting link by email. You take your measurements at home, and I explain how to do this in detail in the first session. Your nutrition plan is sent to you by email after the session.

At the start we usually plan a follow-up session every two weeks. Follow-ups are shorter than the first session, lasting around 20-30 minutes. As habits settle in, the intervals can be extended according to your needs. We decide on the frequency together based on your goals and daily routine.

If you would like to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please let me know at least 24 hours in advance by phone, email or message. This allows me to offer the time to another client. We will then find a new day and time that suits you.

Your plan is prepared around your habits, the foods you enjoy and your daily routine. Rather than a one-size-fits-all list, it includes meal alternatives, suggestions for eating out and practical recipe ideas. The aim is not a list full of prohibitions, but a balanced routine you can keep up.
