Nutrition coaching · Online & in person
One-to-one coaching and custom meal plans built around the week you already have. No fads, no banned-food lists — just small changes that survive a busy Thursday.
“We start with the week you actually have — not the one a diet plan wishes you had.”
Ivan · Registered Nutritionist
Meet Ivan
Most nutrition advice assumes you have a free afternoon, a second fridge and no opinions about food. Real life is a commute, a deadline, and someone at home who won't eat quinoa.
So I work the other way around. We start with the week you actually have — the shifts, the takeaways, the Sunday roast — and we build from there. Small, boring changes that stack up, rather than a reset that collapses by Thursday.
You keep the foods you love. You learn why things work. And when life goes sideways, you already know how to get back on track without starting over.
— Ivan
Ways to work together
Pick the level of support that fits right now — you can move between them at any point, and nothing is locked into a contract.
Ongoing coaching built around your week. We set the direction together, then adjust it as your life, training and appetite change.
A two-week rotating plan written around your budget, your kitchen and the foods you genuinely like eating. Shopping list included.
The recipe library and the Sunday email. Everything I'd tell you in a first session, given away before you ever book one.
Not sure which fits? Send me a message and I'll tell you straight.
How it works
From first call to a plan you can actually run, most people are up and going within a week.
You tell me what's going on and what you've already tried. I tell you honestly whether I can help — and if I can't, who can.
A proper consultation covering food, sleep, training, health history and the shape of your week. No judgement, no food diary shame.
Three or four changes to start with. Not thirty. Written down, with the reasoning, so you're never just following orders.
Regular check-ins to see what stuck and what didn't. The plan bends to your life — that's the whole point.
In their words
I'd been on and off diets for fifteen years. Ivan was the first person to ask what my actual week looked like before telling me anything. Six months in and I'm not 'on a plan' — I just eat differently now.
The meal plan changed how our whole house eats. My husband didn't even notice it was a 'diet', which was very much the point. The shopping list alone saves me an hour a week.
What I appreciated most was being told what the evidence actually says, including when it says 'we don't know'. No supplements pushed, no scare tactics.

Straight answers
If yours isn't here, ask it directly — I answer every message myself.
No. Restriction is the reason most plans fail. We work out how the things you love fit into a week that still moves you toward your goal — and if something genuinely needs to change, I'll explain why rather than just banning it.
Not usually. Some people find tracking useful for a short period to build awareness, and I'll show you how to do it properly if so. For most clients, a few structural habits do more than a food diary ever will.
That depends on where you're starting and what you're aiming at. Most clients notice energy and digestion shifting within two to three weeks. Body composition takes longer, and anyone promising you otherwise is selling something.
I work alongside your GP or specialist, not instead of them. For some conditions I'll refer you to a registered dietitian — I'll tell you that on the first call rather than after you've paid.
Online by default, which means we can work together wherever you are. In-person sessions are available locally if you'd prefer — just mention it when you get in touch.
Then we change it. Coaching is month to month with no lock-in contract, and you can stop whenever you like. I'd rather you left honestly than stayed unhappily.
