My Approach to Nutrition Coaching

Benefits of Nutrition Coaching

Nutrition coaching often feels like a blend of counseling and life coaching. We’ll dive into the things preventing you from staying on track—like stress, mindset issues, emotional eating, or time pressures. Whether you’re located in Tustin, Anaheim, Orange, Costa Mesa, Yorba Linda, or elsewhere in Orange County, once we identify those triggers, we’ll develop real-world strategies to help you stay consistent, motivated, and healthy for the long haul.

In many ways, nutrition coaching is a form of psychological counseling and life coaching. We don’t just focus on food—we uncover what’s really holding you back. Whether it’s stress, poor sleep, emotional eating, or lack of motivation, we’ll work through the root issues together.

Once we identify your roadblocks, we’ll create practical strategies to overcome them and get you on a sustainable, healthy path—no matter if you’re located in Tustin, Anaheim, Orange, Costa Mesa, or Yorba Linda.

Why Do We Need Nutrition Coaching?

In today’s hectic world, it’s easy to see why people are gaining weight and living unhealthy lifestyles. After all, we sit all day, are stressed to the max, and eat ginormous portions.

Here are the startling statistics:

  • 74% of Americans are overweight or obese
  • 80% do not meet the CDC’s recommendations to exercise 150 minutes per week
  • more than 1/2 of all Americans will develop type 2 diabetes during their lifetimes

Why is this happening?

  • We don’t have time to plan our meals so we go for convenience food
  • Restaurant dining and super-sizing have distorted our sense of portion sizes
  • We eat way too much processed food that doesn’t keep us full
  • We buy junk food and then use it to satisfy our emotional needs
  • Chronic stress and scrimping on sleep lead to weight gain
  • We sit all day and rarely make time for exercise

How Does Nutrition Coaching Work?

  • I teach you how to live in the real world with all the temptations
  • I help you become more aware of your eating habits so you can start changing them
  • We work together as partners; I don’t tell you what to do
  • We set specific goals which are small steps that will get you to a healthier lifestyle
  • I hold you accountable for meeting your goals
  • We explore your relationship with food and learn how to put it in its rightful place
  • You learn how to stop using food to satisfy emotional needs
  • You learn how to successfully navigate restaurant dining, vacations, etc.
  • You develop a new sense that you are in control of your eating habits
  • When you have completed your coaching, you will have the skills you need to keep the weight off!

🤔 FAQs: Nutrition Coaching with Lorie Eber

You’ve got questions, and I’ve got answers. Whether you’re wondering how nutrition coaching works, what to expect, or whether it’s right for you—this FAQ section covers the essentials to help you feel confident and informed before starting your journey.

Nutrition coaching is a personalized, one-on-one process that helps you create sustainable, healthy habits around food, mindset, and lifestyle. It’s not just about what’s on your plate—it’s about what’s going on in your life that affects how you eat. Think of it as a hybrid of life coaching and food therapy, designed to help you break patterns like emotional eating, stress snacking, and “all-or-nothing” dieting.

A nutrition coach helps you get to the root of why your eating habits are off-track. Maybe it’s stress. Maybe it’s time pressure. Maybe it’s late-night mindless snacking or just not knowing where to start. I work with you to uncover those roadblocks, then we build simple, real-world strategies to improve your habits and stay consistent. It’s not about rules—it’s about results that last.

Pricing varies depending on session length, frequency, and the level of support you need. I offer custom packages and flexible options to fit your lifestyle—because no two people are alike, and neither are their goals. Contact me at EberLorie@gmail.com or call 714-357-9946 to know about what’s right for you.

While anyone can give you a meal plan, a certified nutrition coach has the training and background to guide you through lasting behavioral change. I bring both education and experience—so you’re not just getting advice, you’re getting to coach that works.

Sort of—but not the kind that’s taped to the fridge and followed for three days before life gets in the way. I’ll help you understand what works for your body, your schedule, and your preferences. You’ll learn how to build your own balanced meals, navigate restaurants, and ditch the guilt after a night out. No more cookie-cutter plans. This is about flexibility and freedom.

Many clients start to notice mindset shifts in just a few weeks—less stress, more energy, better control. Physical results typically follow within 2–3 months, depending on your goals and consistency. Remember: we’re not chasing quick fixes. We’re building habits that actually last.

Both! If you’re in Orange County—Irvine, Tustin, Anaheim, Costa Mesa, Yorba Linda—you can schedule in-person sessions. Not nearby? No problem. I offer virtual coaching too, so you can work with me from anywhere. Same support, same transformation—just in your time zone.
