| Health Care Coverage |
Use your health insurance for nutrition counseling appointments (phone and video too!). While we still have the Affordable Care Act (ACA), take advantage of your preventative care benefits.
If you have pre-existing conditions such as diabetes, you may have unlimited nutrition counseling appointments available under your health insurance plan. Use it now, as your benefits could be changing soon.

I believe there is no "one size fits all" plan for nutrition and fitness. We all have individual needs and they need to be respectfully addressed when creating plans for nutrition and activity. Successful programs are a collaborative effort that address your needs and lifestyle as whole. I welcome you to take this opportunity to discover your optimal health. Feel free to contact me with any questions. more about Sheri |

Summer is still here, let's hang on a little longer! Take advantage of the bounty of fresh fruit and vegetables available now. As the COVID-19 numbers continue to rise, we need to double our efforts to stay healthy and keep everyone around us well. Continue to distance and wear masks. You are only as healthy as your neighbor. Get out for a bit of sun and get your vitamin D (good for immune support), wear or bring your mask to wear if you can't stay 6-12 feet apart while outside. And don't forget to wear sunscreen.
Meanwhile, I'm continuing to offer virtual personal training and nutrition appointments. We can still work on strategies for physical and mental fitness, stocking your kitchen with non-perishables and preparing meals with what's available. Let's take care of ourselves and find ways to stay healthy and sane together.
Let me guide you towards sustaining healthy habits in nutrition and fitness with my Health Coaching skills. I've come to appreciate how an established healthy lifestyle has made my life more comfortable and enjoyable. This doesn't mean it's always easy. It takes constant re-evaluation and commitment, often difficult when life gets stressful, busy and complicated.
