She immediately shut me down after I used the words "I'm trying to improve my diet." Because she doesn't approve of diet culture. And neither do I, I just didn't know the proper terminology. She has a very aggressive demeanor, and does not specialize in any of the areas listed on her site. Eating disorders specifically and weight loss, she sent me a referral for someone else. Sorry, but false advertising, and super rude human! Would avoid her services, if this happened within 30 seconds of meeting with her.

In 2011, I saw Alyse for some nutrition-coaching sessions, after turning 40 and feeling flabby and…read moreout of shape. Her techniques helped me lose about 25 lbs then. But the reason I'm writing this review in 2019 is to attest that her advice has stood the test of time. By adhering to the good habits she taught me, I've found it easy to keep my weight low & my fitness high. And as she claims, there is no sense of deprivation or being on a permanent diet. It would sound like an overblown cliché for an Angeleno to say that a nutritionist's advice was "life-changing". But I can't think of a more appropriate word -- and going in, I was a skeptic. Better eating habits and fitness have improved every part of my life: I sleep better. I'm more productive at work. I'm nicer to children and animals. And I still get to eat nachos and beer.

I found Jamie's nutrition services after a long search for a dietician in LA. I opted for her…read more4-week + meal plan program. My schedule has been crazy since my husband has been battling cancer, and I needed some support to help reset my eating habits (which had been in rapid decline). On top of my demanding schedule, I have a complicated history with food. I've had disordered eating; have followed special diets ranging from veganism to the very meat-heavy autoimmune protocol; I have a ton of food allergies; and I am ridiculously picky. Jamie was incredibly supportive and empathetic. She listened carefully to my history and targeted her plan and advice to my individual needs. In my case, because I am dealing with overwhelm, she took a very practical, gradual approach to incorporating changes. For example, while she developed a full meal plan for me, she set the incremental goal of incorporating just two or three new meals in our first week. Jamie also did an excellent job with creating a meal plan that was realistic, delicious, and tailored to my picky taste. Coming from various experiences with disordered and overly strict eating, I really appreciated that Jamie was not judgmental or dogmatic about any particular food types. She didn't even criticize me for the random bowls of cheese puffs that appeared in my food journal. : ) Perhaps most importantly, Jamie is an excellent listener and asks great questions to target her program to your needs. She doesn't rely on the one-size-fits-all approach that I've seen with so many other dietitians. Wherever you are on your health journey, whether you need to make slow changes or if you're ready to hit the ground running full force, I am sure she will be able to help you meet your goals.

My mom has a lot of chronic conditions and is also prediabetic, making her dietary needs more complex. My mom loved her experience with Jamie and felt very comfortable right away, despite the visits being virtual because of distance (my mom is based in the Bay Area). Jamie provided compassion and empathy, while patiently listening to all of my mom's concerns and answering all questions. Jamie provided dietary recommendations taking into account my mom's cultural and dietary preferences. The plans were structured in a way that made it very easy for my mom to understand and follow. We have been very pleased with my mom's experience and highly recommend Jamie for your nutritional needs.

It gets rather difficult when you think that you know everything but realize that having someone just look over what you're doing will pay huge dividends. I have been working with Jeff for a couple months now, and through some minor adjustments that we have made in my overall approach to nutrition, it has made huge improvements. My sleep, performance and overall well being has been a lot better. Also, a huge thing we have worked on is how to fuel workouts properly, which is something that has been the most difficult for me to grasp. My training sessions now have gotten much better with the proper nutrition guidelines. Jeff is definitely great to work with, I highly recommend hiring him as your own personal coach!!

I cannot say enough good things about Weight MD. Dr S has literally changed my life. I have lost…read morealmost 30lbs since I started at Weight MD and feel like I have the tools to keep it off this time. When you walk into the office you are greeted with a smile by Brooke. Not only is she kind but she welcomes you by name as you walk in the door. You really feel the joy of the smaller practice. The practice is like a group of 'care bears' each person has a specialty. In addition to Dr S he has a mental health specialist, a nutritionist, and a physical fitness pro on staff. It is a one stop shop to get you back in shape. The first visit was the longest. It's where Dr S and I talked extensively about my goals as well as what I had tried in the past. I never feel rushed during an appointment. I always feel like the only patient on the schedule for the day (not like he needs to scoot out to the next patient). I have felt so supported through the entire process. The weekly meal plans make meal prep a breeze. If you want to lose the weight, this is the place to go!

I was greeted by the team, and they were so welcoming and professional. I was apprehensive about what the visit would entail though. Dr. Sapozhnikov was so kind, with no sense of judgment at all. He asked a thorough set of questions to understand my goals and any barriers. He then put me through a battery of tests which was really fascinating. It was so high-tech. In the end I received personalized, detailed information that made it so clear what I needed to do and eat to reach my goals. It has only been a few days but already I feel this is something I can do, and have been making changes. I can't wait to go back for my next visit to check my progress! ​

Since I wasn't aiming for dramatic change or preparing for any vacation/wedding, I'm more seeking a way to shift my life style and better control my body. It works great.

Normally not a problem but it was difficult for my 70 yr old mother.
