Amy Kowinsky

I have been a registered dietitian since 2000 and have been a nutrition and fitness enthusiast all of my life. I have worked primarily in the hospital setting educating clients about their diets and healthy eating, but have recently begun providing nutrition counseling/assessments/and menus for mentally challenged adults in a group home setting. What has recently refueled my passion for nutrition and fitness is two years ago I joined a biggest loser contest and lost 25 pounds by dieting and taking up running and working out. Since then i have completed several 5K's and even a 34 mile endurance hike in a day. I am "re-energized" to help clients lose weight and improve their well being and fully understand what we as dietitians learn in school, "its not a diet its a lifestyle change". I am eager to help others learn it is not as hard as you think it is and it can even be fun.
