Ask the Nutritionist

I can’t speak highly enough of Sari. She’s my go-to person when I reach that point when I know I need professional help to reduce my weight. My PCP recently recommended I lose 7% of my body weight to improve overall health, but of course didn’t tell me how. I figured Sari would know what I need to do, as I had consulted with her a couple of years ago. She listened, made sure she understood my goals and food preferences, and came up with an easy plan to follow that fit my lifestyle. What I appreciate most about Sari is, she doesn’t try to make me switch and eat foods that are totally different from what I like; but rather recommends similar but more nutritious options to try out. I also like how she instills key concepts without resorting to technical jargon: Instead of referring to “macros,” she emphasized having protein and fiber at every meal; to help manage portion sizes, she advised measuring foods to get an idea of portion size, and then using the “Plate Method” of distributing protein, fiber and veggies, for portion control. To reinforce our conversation, she followed-up with a summary of key points, links to nutritional resources, and an easy personalized eating plan based on my tastes to help jumpstart my weight loss journey. I highly recommend Sari to anyone looking for practical nutritional advice! Read Less

I have been meeting with Sari and have had nothing but a positive experience with her. Sari has helped me to design an eating plan that fits me. This will help make my being successful more obtainable because it is centered around my food dislikes and likes and lifestyle/workschedule. For the month leading up to surgery to now a month post surgery Sari has helped me prepare for the lifestyle changes needed to meet my goals. I really enjoy meeting with Sari and look forward to working with her to help me have a healthier lifestyle. Read Less

Sari is the best! A neighbor referred me to LBS/Sari and I am thrilled to be working with them.

Everyone at LBS is just fantastic. I can't express it enough. Friendly and knowledgeable, but most importantly, patient care is #1! I am never worried about reaching out if I have a question between appointments. Lauren really cares. They follow up and show how important your health is to them. I really can't say enough good things about LBS. Read Less
