It took me many years in clinical practice as a Gastroenterologist to find the proper diet to support—the right "diet" for me.
Welcome to my new blog. I will use this space to connect with my patients, readers, and community in a current and exciting way.

Why am I sharing my diet with you?
I lost 15 pounds in 3 months. Decreased ~5% body fat. I changed my approach to eating and portion control. I saw a shift in my life on many levels.
"To me, a diet is the kinds of food a person eats, the lifestyle choices that surround those decisions and overall balance of one's life." — My coach
What is my diet?
One based on simple, healthy choices and easy-to-prepare meals.
This is not a starvation diet but an entire lifestyle change.
What is the general idea?
No pills. No supplements. No purchased meals.
Even I needed resetting and coaching.
I started to reassess how I ate. How much. How often.
I went to a "coach." Even as a Gastroenterologist—I needed coaching to "reset" my "healthy" eating, nutrition, and dietary choices. I needed accountability.
Personally
I eat a high-fiber, mostly plant-based 🌱 diet, no red meat, drink 4 liters of water a day, exercise, and am focused on keeping nutrition simple. I am sharing what works for me and what I routinely recommend to my patients.
"Balance. Portion control. Keep nutrition simple. Eat Smart. Eat Healthy. 🌱 🌾 🌿"
