CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

"Robyn has gracefully transitioned me and my family’s unhealthy eating habits into a much more conscious way of life. She was patient and had the best sense of humor in watching us struggle to make this transition. She has never been militant or judgmental and has always helped us find ways to enjoy food without sacrificing the fun in eating. This family loooves to eat! But we like heart attack food, so Robyn stepped in to make us heart ‘healthy n happy’. More importantly she is ALWAYS available to her clients and she makes it easy with a lot of simple literature. Plus she has a great bod! So she must be doing something right!"

"Robyn has been teaching various nutrition courses for the Wellness Program for the Motion Picture Industry Health Plan Participants and Dependents since 1999.  Her classes have helped many people to be more informed about how they eat. She also has presented material for out residents at The Motion Picture & Television Fund. Her presentations are interesting and easy to assimilate.  Her knowledge, and passion for nutrition keeps people coming back to learn more!"
Tina Johnson

"Little did I know that a year after starting work with Robyn, I'd be eating -- and really enjoying -- lentils, brown rice, spelt crackers, flax cereal, and all those servings of fruits and vegetables that I never paid much attention to. Not only has Robyn helped me to dramatically revise my daily diet and control my cholesterol levels, but she's also given me great tips on products and vendors (Harry's Berries! Justin's Peanut Butter!) that I might never have encountered.  Robyn has had a great way of slowly but surely revising what I eat -- not forcing me to eat anything I didn't want to -- but encouraging me to try lots of "new" things, thereby making "better choices".  She has been caring, thorough, resourceful, and very professional in our work together. I heartily have recommended her -- and continue to recommend her -- to anyone looking to become healthier."
Lisa Crane Greer

"I have been a patient, client, friend, and disciple of Robyn Goldberg, R.D. for the past two years. While I am not the size 2 that I fancied myself, there is no question that I have lost weight, maybe twenty pounds, and I still do cheat... While I do not offer my self as a paragon of virtue, I can clearly state that Robyn Goldberg, R.D. improved my well being and I continue to visit her monthly to be sure I don’t slip into old habits."
Rhoda Sharp
Educator
"After being fed up with “fad” diets, I went to Robyn with a picture of a body type and weight that I wanted to achieve. Taking everything into consideration (my body type, work schedule, and non-willingness to cook), we agreed upon a realistic goal for me. She introduced me to a new way to eat and made suggestions for my workouts... Robyn has become my mentor on healthy living, teaching me how to eat nutritiously, be good to myself, and not give into societal pressures of body types."
Kerry Giannantonio
Hugo Boss
"Robyn thanks so much for all your help for sharing with me your prodigious knowledge about diet and nutrition. Since I’ve started coming to you, I’ve lost almost 15% of my bodyweight, lowered my cholesterol by at least twenty points and no longer need my blood pressure medication. Additionally, I’ve begun a walking program that I truly enjoy and, although I’ll never be a jock, I somehow am managing to be relatively consistent in attending the gym. I’ve never looked or felt better.

Working with you has been a pleasure. You made my goals seen within reach and even made the entire process palatable. I appreciate your kindness and understanding about the difficulties in beginning and maintaining any kind of health program.

Thanks again for all your help. I’ve recommended you to all my friends."

"What an incredible journey it has been, in developing a healthy relationship with food.  With Robyn's help, the process has been an exciting one.  I'm losing the weight I've been wanting to and I have not felt deprived at all!  She has given me an education as well as inspiration."
Evelyn Poplawski
Therapist
"Losing weight, for me, has been in incredible journey. Robyn Goldberg has been there, been patient and supportive and has encouraged me to pursue a healthy relationship with food and eating.  I now understand that it's not about dieting, per se, but about eating a more healthful, effective manner. Robyn has opened my eyes to the possibility of living a happy, healthy long life free from the obsessions of food, eating and dieting."
