Last Wednesday, I met with my first client, my friend L. We went to Whole Foods for an educational shopping trip to help her improve her diet with two goals: correcting an IBS problem and losing weight. She learned how to select fruits and vegetables and which to be sure are organic. She also learned how to read labels and how to take fiber to help with both goals. As of yesterday, she said she felt better already and had lost 3 pounds. Our next consultation will be a cooking day to teach how to add more veggies and whole grains (non-wheat) into her diet.
The trip took about 1.5 hours. It was a great experience because I learned that I need to have an option to go shopping at a regular store as well. Kind of a part 2–how to shop at Piggly Wiggly and still make the best choices.

I too struggled with IBS and food allergies, but with the nutritional products I started taking a few years ago, my IBS symptoms have disappeared and I eat whatever I want to! I give all the credit to Infinity2 nutritionals. http://www.infinity2.com/faithavery
