Our family recently hired Shannon Garcia of Lone Star Nutrition to help us address some health challenges with our daughter. If I had the time and space to write a "book" detailing how awesome Ms. Shannon is as a professional and a person, I would. However, I will highlight what our family found to be her most helpful qualities.
Flexible. We loved the fact that she met with us in our home. Furthermore, if something she suggested we do didn't work for us, Shannon was always willing to offer other ideas to meet us where we were at. This was especially beneficial for our teenage daughter.
Accountability. Shannon would help each of us set a goal and then follow up with us on the next session. Simple but not easy without that accountability. This helped us alot.
Encouraging. Shannon made a point to focus more on what we were doing well rather than on our 'nutritional misbehaviors'. As she did this, we were all more inclined to keep doing the right things toward success. We need more cheerleaders like Shannon in this world (I think!).
Passionate. Shannon truly enjoys her calling. When I asked her what led her to this career, I loved her story. Hire her for yourself and hear her story. It's...
Read moreIf I could give Mrs. Garcia triple the amount of stars I would. In a nutshell, SHE TOTALLY ROCKS!! She can tell you anything and everything there is to know about leading a healthy lifestyle and the best part about it is that she makes it your own! It is nobody else’s healthful lifestyle plan but YOURS. We are all different and we all have different likes and dislikes as well as tolerances and metabolisms etc...Mrs. Garcia takes ALL of this into account, turns it around and makes an amazing healthy lifestyle just for you! Anything I write in this review will not do her any justice, you need to hire her to find out for yourselves just how awesome it is to have someone that takes your personal lifestyle into account before throwing you a diet plan that you may not even enjoy. Don't think that what works for everyone will work for you, let Shannon personally guide you to YOUR health goals in a manner that you can understand and enjoy doing! So again, SHANNON GARCIA ROCKS and they only way to know how much she rocks, is to let her guide you to your future healthy goals no matter...
Read moreShannon is passionate about her work, and always comes with a smile and a bagful of ideas and recipes. Her TV videos give great insight into what a session with this bubbly personality is like. The fact that she is an accomplished, registered (pediatric) dietician, gives me comfort. No crazy plans. Her website and blog are a wealth of info.
I am a senior who loves to cook, and Shannon has helped me develop a plan for healthy eating and exercise that is very doable. She,has introduced me to a myriad of new products and simple tips to lighten favorite dishes . She is never judgmental, and always very encouraging. It is a luxury to have someone who comes to my home or my office, and customizes a healthy roadmap that is...
