Before I started working with Nancy, I was struggling with my weight, nothing seemed to work in the long term. That's when I found Nancy, and everything changed. From the very first appointment, Nancy was attentive, compassionate, and knowledgeable. She took the time to understand my individual needs, preferences, and lifestyle. Over the course of several months, I lost an astonishing 20-30 pounds, all thanks to Nancy's expertise and support. She taught me to make healthier food choices, avoid the foods that were sabotaging my progress, and establish a sustainable eating routine. I have kept the weight off for over five years. "Good health is a journey, not a destination". I continue to see her when I start to wander off the good food path and need food accountability. What I appreciate most about Nancy is that she didn't just focus on the numbers on the scale. She truly cared about my overall well-being, ensuring that I felt energetic, strong, and healthy. If you're in search of a nutritionist who can guide you toward lasting, life-changing results, Nancy is the one to see. Don't hesitate to make an appointment - you won't regret it!

Picking an individual for a guided fishing trip of the Internet is taking a chance. The well done web sites sets expectations for a great trip well. The e-mail communication to set up the trip was excellent. Jason is a great e-mail communicator. He explained potential custom trips in detail. He explained what kind of fish to expect, what tide times are good etc. We meet at a beach parking lot in South of Santa Barbara. He is friendly, personable, and knowledgeable. He was very well equipped with fishing rods, baits, tools, and everything. He explained the casting to us. He offered us the different fish to target on the beach and how to target them. The place that he took us to had a school of surf perch. Almost every cast had a tuck of one of them. When we found the school head-on, almost every cast turned into a catch. We kept a dozen or so for cooking and returned extra ones to the ocean. He was very knowledgeable on any fishing topic. Particularly vividly remains in my memory the description for fishing shark at night from the shore. That seems to be a big experience. In the end, Jason cleaned up the fish for us. He was very helpful and prepared for everything. He had a camera to take photos of our catch each time. He switched us to try different baits to target other fish species. He had fresh water and gutting station set up at his truck to clean the fish. I highly recommend Break Water Tours.
