The session was educational and I felt like we made good progress on steps I can be taking to improve my digestion/overall nutrition. The pace feels manageable and flexible/not overwhelming so I feel like I can accomplish the goals we've set

Lauren was extremely kind and thoughtful when speaking to me. I felt like she was truly listening instead of trying to give me a quick fix and she made sure I was comfortable moving forward instead of feeling forced.

Lauren is absolutely amazing at her job. I've been in and out of therapy for most of my life and she has made some MIND BLOWING connections for me. I had no idea how much I need to "unpack" regarding my relationship to food. I don't have an eating disorder like anorexia or bulimia, so it never occurred to me that it could be having a major impact on my thinking (depression and anxiety), cognitive functioning at work and at home (fuzzy, confused, negative self- talk).

I am getting my emotional eating under control without weighing or measuring. I feel great. My nutritionist gives me personalized advice.

Kaela has listened to all of my needs and concerns and has provided the utmost care and fact based recommendations. She has helped me every step of the way throughout my pregnancy and I'm so grateful for her guidance and support. Nutritionist appointments through Nourish has made all the difference in this pregnancy compared to my last pregnancy and I can't recommend it enough to all the moms I know. I'm excited to see how nutrition improves my second postpartum and breastfeeding journey with Kaela's guidance.

My dietician is very knowledgeable, gives great tips (especially the dialed in/more minor ones), and helps guide an intuitive approach to food. I really appreciate our conversations and this is exactly the kind of support I was looking for. I'm so glad I've found it.

Elizabeth is a fabulous, knowledgeable, down to earth person! I was so unsure of how I'd feel after my first appointment, but Nourish's ability to match you with your ideal nutritionist for your specific needs is so accurate it was an almost perfect pairing!

It is not like any other place I have tried before. I feel seen and heard by my dietician. I am not just a number on the scale. My dietician takes into consideration so many things that are not even related to my weight which I had never even realized myself were contributing to my health. She has been kind and supportive. I couldn't be happier.

I find the meetings with Ruth to be very on target with my goals. She encourages me and moves me forward, gently with a good understanding of my goals.

I have literally the best dietitian. I’ve already recommended her to a friend

I really think my diet has improved and the help is very personalized. With my dietician's help I have been able to expand my diet.

My dietitian, Katie, is awesome. She has been very helpful and supportive and I feel like I have a better understanding of what I need to be eating. She's given me excellent suggestions and has taken the time to do a pretty deep analysis of my food log.

When I first met with a Nourish dietitian, I was expecting the same treatment as usual. Any specialist I had met told me to just not eat certain foods, have a structured meal plan, and my problems would go away. All the recommendations felt so generic, and I was incredibly tired of hearing that my only option was to eat only a few ‘clean’ foods for the rest of my life. Instead, my dietitian listened to my whole history and all the issues that I was experiencing, then worked together with me to develop our plan of attack. I was tired of having the same experience over and over again - I needed someone who would actually improve my life and found that here.

He's making changes based on Taylor's suggestions and encouragement that are helping lower his A1C.  Due to the dietitian's instruction on nutrition, he is now reading food labels, making smarter choices, and is consistently monitoring his blood glucose levels.

Instead, my dietitian listened to my whole history and all the issues that I was experiencing, then worked together with me to develop our plan of attack. I was tired of having the same experience over and over again - I needed someone who would actually improve my life and found that here.

Since that first meeting, my dietitian has completely changed my view around food. I’ve been able to work with her to find out what food, patterns, and other factors influence my stomach pain.

Every dietitian I had used prior had just given me suggestions on what to change, with no real plan or guide for how to implement the changes. My Nourish dietitian is the first one who has actually helped guide me through a true lifestyle change, and has been supportive and by my side every step of the way. Now, I virtually never have stomach pain, and on top of that, I have a much healthier and well-rounded mindset towards food in general.

Before I started with Nourish, diabetes was seriously hurting my entire life. My A1C was much higher than I was hoping and it was creating stress and pain. I really did not feel like myself, so I was desperate to find a solution that worked for me. Luckily, I found Nourish online and was able to get the perfect dietitian that would work for my specific situation.

From day 1, Nourish helped turn my life around. Yes, my dietitian was incredibly knowledgable about type 2 diabetes, but more importantly, she also took a big interest in my whole life. She helped me better understand my own diagnosis and where that fit into my overall nutritional journey. We worked together to create a clear path forward that made sense for me. It was the first time in my life that I truly felt like I understood my diabetes, and it has had a lasting impact on my mental wellness.

I am so thankful that my dietitian was able to help me in such an impactful way. I’ve already seen my A1C drop 3 points, but perhaps most importantly, I am starting to finally like I am in control. Without Nourish, I know I’d still be feeling completely physically and emotionally drained. I have felt so much better mentally and physically since I started seeing a dietitian with Nourish.

The part of her care team that my daughter Becca always struggled with the most was her dietitian, because that was the one member who was forcing the most change. That’s why I was so thrilled when Becca actually came to me about a new RD that she had seen on instagram - I thought there may finally be an opportunity for Becca to connect with her dietitian.

Immediately, things were much easier at Nourish than our experiences elsewhere. Our dietitian was able to find a time that worked within Becca’s difficult schedule. With sports, school, friends, and all her other extracurriculars, it can often be hard to fit important appointments in, but with Nourish it was easy.

There was an immediate impact. She’s been feeling better, which I’ve had the opportunity to hear both from her and from her dietitian because Nourish involves the parents in their own sessions, too. Her improvement in health has led to her getting a lot of her confidence back, and I have finally been able to see her happy again. It feels like such a relief to watch my happy girl back with her friends.

My daughter Julia had been going to a psychiatrist to deal with her disordered eating, and the topic of getting a dietitian had come up. I was completely desperate to help her in any way I could, so I jumped at the opportunity and was connected with Nourish by her psychiatrist.

Immediately, the dietitian connected on a teenage-level with my daughter, which I think has been crucial for my daughter’s recovery. She was incredibly kind and really engaged with Julia, which I know can be difficult at times with teenagers. Our dietitian went above and beyond to 'meet Julia where she was at’ - going so far as to adjust appointment times to align with Julia's school schedule, and being flexible with any goals or strategies she set with Julia so that Julia could accomplish them while still getting to experience a ‘normal’ teenage life. I could finally start to see Julia turn a corner, and seeing the hope in her eyes finally return was incredible for me to watch.

I have appreciated how much I am kept in the loop by Julia's dietitian. We finally have someone helping both of us deal with the nutrition challenges that she is constantly facing. My daughter went from eating basically nothing to having 3 meals and 4 snacks a day consistently. So much of her pain is gone, and that is all thanks to our dietitian. I highly recommend anyone looking for a guiding and supportive figure in their child’s life get a Nourish dietitian.

My dietitian has been with me every step of the way the last year and a half as I have battled my eating disorder and countless other health issues that I have. Oftentimes, my doctor or other health care professionals will only focus on the problem that they are treating me for, but my dietitian has really considered everything about my health and life when determining the best path forward for my treatment.

Having an eating disorder can be really complicated, and sometimes other doctors do not understand exactly what I am going through. They’ll ask me questions or prescribe treatment plans that go completely against all the progress I’ve been able to make with my eating disorder. Every time I have had an issue, my dietitian has been there to speak with my doctors to ensure I am getting the best treatment across the board.

I finally feel like I have a champion who believes in me, and my dietitian believing in me has allowed me to believe in myself. The progress I’ve made in 18 months is more than I could have imagined, and I cannot wait to continue my journey with Nourish.

I have had a long battle with my eating disorder, with time spent with dietitians in both residential and outpatient care. I had felt like I was at a pretty good place in my recovery, but then during Covid everything took a turn for the worse. I was quickly slipping back into some of my bad habits. I was stuck in an overly structured recovery program and I needed to find a new approach that worked for me.

After reading up on Nourish, I realized that it was the perfect fit for me - it wasn’t just a one-size-fits-all approach. My dietitian was exactly what I needed to finally start to feel more confident in my ED recovery progress. She has been incredibly compassionate and supportive throughout our time together. She knows about my unique battle with ED, and takes into account my personal preferences in every meeting we have together. She also never judges me for anything I say or do and makes sure I view our sessions together as a safe and supportive space to open up.

I know not every day will be easy, but since starting with Nourish I’ve had more wins than I can ever remember having before. I feel confident that I’ve found the right match to always support me when I struggle, and ultimately help me overcome my battle with ED. I never imagined I would be in such a good place and am finally so excited to see where the future takes me!

What is Anorexia? 

Anorexia nervosa (also known as just anorexia) is an eating disorder characterized by an obsession over weight and food. If you have anorexia, you are likely to severely restrict your food intake in order to control your weight. You are also likely to suffer from a distorted body image, and you may even see yourself as fat even when your actual weight is dangerously low. 

People with anorexia will take extreme measures to continue losing weight or avoid weight gain, such as compulsive exercise, purging food after eating by intentionally vomiting, misusing laxatives, or extreme dieting. Regardless of how much weight is actually lost, you maintain an intense fear of weight gain. 

Anorexia affects approximately 1-2% of the global population and is most common among female adolescents and young adults, though it also affects men and is increasingly common among children. 

Anorexia is a serious condition that can have severe complications if left untreated, including malnutrition and death. Anorexia also has significantly higher mortality rates and suicide rates than other mental disorders. With treatment, however, you can take back control of your body image and eating habits and manage the risks of living with anorexia.

What’s the Difference Between Anorexia and Bulimia?

The principal difference between anorexia and bulimia is that while a person with anorexia takes extreme measures to lose weight or avoid gaining weight, a person with bulimia employs strategies to consistently purge food from their body after an episode of binge eating by taking laxatives or making themselves throw up. People with anorexia and people with bulimia both tend to fixate on their body weight and shape and have trouble accurately assessing their body image. 

Anorexia Signs and Symptoms 

Early signs of anorexia are often difficult to recognize. You do not have to be underweight in order to have anorexia. While the physical signs of anorexia are related to starvation, there are typically also behavioral and emotional signs and symptoms of anorexia as well.

While a low weight does not always indicate anorexia, the most common physical sign of anorexia is having a low body weight for your height, sex, and stature. Other physical signs of anorexia include significant weight loss in a short period of time (weeks or months) and extremely thin appearance (emaciation).

The behavioral signs of anorexia center around taking extreme measures to lose weight such as extreme dieting or fasting, compulsive exercise, and self-induced vomiting after eating.

The emotional signs of anorexia tend to focus on body image and self-worth, including a preoccupation with food and weight, frequently skipping meals or refusing to eat in public, and repeated weighing the body or looking in the mirror for perceived flaws. 

Causes of Anorexia

While the exact cause of anorexia is unknown, it likely stems from a combination of factors spanning biology, psychology, and environment.

Anorexia can begin as regular dieting that ultimately develops into extreme food restriction and unhealthy weight loss. People with anorexia tend to tie their self-worth to being thin.

Anorexia also often runs in families — children of parents that have eating disorders are significantly more likely to be diagnosed with anorexia themselves. Anorexia is not caused by a lack of willpower or inability to control your behavior, and it’s a very difficult condition to control.

Anorexia Health Risks

The health risks of anorexia are very serious and primarily linked to the medical complications associated with malnutrition and starvations, which can negatively impact nearly every organ in your body. If left unmanaged, severe cases of anorexia can irreversibly damage the function of vital organs like your heart, brain, or kidneys. In the most severe cases, anorexia can cause abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias) or an imbalance of electrolytes that can ultimately be fatal. 

Other serious long-term health risks associated with anorexia include:

  • Irregular heartbeats
  • Electrolyte imbalance
  • Low blood sugar and seizures
  • Anemia
  • Loss of bone mass
  • Delayed puberty and physical growth
  • Infertility
  • Insomnia
  • Osteoporosis
  • Kidney and liver damage
  • Low potassium
  • Cardiac arrest
  • Depression and severe anxiety
  • Alcohol use disorder and substance misuse

Anorexia Treatment 

The right approach for anorexia treatment typically depends on the severity of your condition as well as your age, overall health, medical history, and other factors. In more severe cases, urgent medical care is needed to address physical health complications. 

Nutrition counseling from a registered dietitian that specializes in eating disorders is a critical part of recovering and managing your anorexia. The specialized anorexia treatment team at Nourish will work with you to understand biological, psychological and social contributors to your eating disorder. First and foremost, intervention at a behavioral level is imperative to stop restricting. Secondly, your treatment team will seek to understand the psychological issues that contribute to your eating disorder and help identify and treat root causes.

At Nourish, we have a team of anorexia dietitians that specialize in working with patients at all stages of recovery and patients that have atypical anorexia. We offer nutrition counseling over telehealth and accept insurance in order to make accessing care as easy and affordable as possible.
