Thank you so much! I really do appreciate that!! I am looking to getting into a sort of weight loss/life change coaching. I had thought about dietician but to be honest, I'm not sure that's the route I wante to take. I see the value in such a career...and know just how important it is to understand what your body needs..but I'm not sure I want to be quite so restrictive in how I "coach". Because I wasn't that restrictive with myself! I mean, I was to an extent..but I didn't deprive myself of anything really. I just learned a new way of incorporating them into my life. So I want to teach that approach. I think it's more realistic and someting people can stick with, again not to devalue what a dietician does. I just need to figure out what sort of legit credibility I need for such a title as weight loss coach.

Best of luck to you! I know you can do this!! :flowerforyou:
