great experience!!!

by Anonymous

I wanted to lose 10 - 15 pounds before my wedding so I went to Jennifer. She was so kind and really understood what I needed. She actually made it seem easy! I lost 15 pounds before my wedding and felt great! It wasn't a "diet," it's something I will use forever. I would highly recommend seeing Jennifer.

Couldn't have had a better experience

by mchl09

In about 8 months I dropped 25 pounds with Jennifer's expertise. In the 8 or 9 months following that I haven't put on a lb. back.
Jennifer is interested in educating her clients about holistically healthy living; finding an eating lifestyle that her client will enjoy, but that is reasonable for attaining goals. Jennifer is very results oriented and is greatly invested in her clients' entire well-being. She facilitates a working relationship with her clients that is personable and non-judgmental. And she is genuine, a pleasure to work with. This is how professionalism was went to be, in my opinion.

Jennifer has given me insights into weight management, and thus healthy living, that I will have with me forever. I can not overemphasize the effectiveness of her insights related to eating lifestyle.

Jennifer has a passion for helping her clients meet their goals. She makes her clients feel like a priority in how accessable she is to follow-up meetings or communication via email.

I'm so glad I took advantage of the opportunity I had to work with her. I'm looking good and enjoying eating. And I know that I can always count on Jennifer for support.

She is the GREATEST

by theatre

Jennifer helped my husband and myself turn our lives around by working with each of our individual needs and desires. We were on a quest to make a life style change that we could live with, not a "diet" than would simply shed pounds. She taught us how to eat healthy without feeling deprived, or hungry. I thought I knew how to eat properly but the knowledge we gained from her was eye opening. I lost over 25 lbs, and kept it off because of Jennifer I now know how to eat in a healthy way and still enjoy my 'treats". My husband is about half the size he was when we started with Jennifer. You will not find anyone better.

Pros: everything

Cons: none

Jennifer Made me a happier person!!!

by EmMcGHorne

I went to see Jennifer when I felt like I was helpless and hopeless. She made me realize that if you take one step at a time then any goal is attainable. I'm a much happier woman now that I've lost 22 lbs and I'm still working on losing more. The difference between now and 7 months ago is that I know I can do it! I've kept the weight off and I've changed my life. I feel great and I'm so thankful for all of her encouragement and support. I fit into those jeans that I thought I'd have to give away; they're actually too baggy now! Seriously, if you're truly ready to change your life for the better Jennifer Vimbor is the person who can help you reach your goals!!

Pros: Lost Weight, Feel better about myself, got fit, confidence

Cons: None

Awesome results

by jtighe

As an admitted junk food junkie and couch potato, I decided it was time to start getting healthy as i was basically begging for a heart attack and feeling sluggish. I consulted Jennifer about not so much a "diet" kind of diet, but more about healthy eating and a overall healthier lifestyle. I must say I was impressed. Jennifer did not talk "AT" me, she talked "TO" me. Her knowledge, passion, and personal style bowled me over. It felt like I was talking to a caring friend. Jennifer took her time with me, and explained things in a way that was very easy to understand(this was truly all foreign to me). After just 5 weeks, I have lost 10 lbs and my energy level is already increasing. I'm also getting ready to join a gym(never thought I would say that)!! I never imagined that a healthy diet could be so satisfying. I'm learning more and more all the time and look forward to our meetings. Thank You Jennifer, I couldn't have done this without you!! I've received quite a few compliments from coworkers and friends on how well "I'M" doing, but i tell them "WE" are doing well. You're the best!!

Pros: Personalized service in a non pressure environment

Cons: none

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!

by EBrooklyn

Jennifer is amazing!!!!!!!!!!! I went in and told her I refused to cook and I refused to start eating many of the foods I already dislike and she managed to work with me and helped me lose 45lbs. Even my mother- who never compliments me on such things, is impressed with both Jennifer and I. Furthermore she is energetic and excited about the people she works with in helping them to find a healthier lifestyle that works for them. The fact that she is not judgemental would be reason enough to go, but the fact that she is fun and encouraging makes me actually look forward to seeing her and hearing from her. I have contacted other nutrionists in the past who have bored me, made me feel insecure, and told me they couldn't help me unless I was willing to start cooking and eating foods I know I don't like. Jennifer is not like this, she makes you feel great, even when you are not having a good week. If only all people looking to get healthy could know about her people would find it much easier to do so. To put it simply- SHE IS THE BEST!

Pros: She makes getting healthy fun.

awareness!!

by jimmyfootball

I went to see jennifer and she opened my eyes tremendously. I thought I knew everything about nutrition and losing weight but the small changes she advised me to make made all the difference. It was little adjustments that I never thought of that put me over the edge. Her advise made it very easy to make my goals.

Very knowledgeable and helpful

by wendyadrienne

I went to Jennifer to to help change my diet and lose weight (about 10 pounds). I didn't want to try a "fad" diet that would only work for a few weeks- I wanted a nutritionist to tailor a life-long eating plan for me that would include healthy foods that I liked. Jennifer was wonderful. She went through my current diet with me and came up with many healthier choices. Not only did she guide me with many healthy substitutions, she also went over a lot of misconceptions that I had about dieting. She spent a lot of time helping me and also sent me additional information between visits. I lost the 10 pounds and feel great! I would highly recommend Jennifer as a nutritionist-she is very informative, very positive and fun to work with.- Wendy

Absolutely outstanding

by kjhobbes

My experience with Jen was nothing short of extraordinary. Her professionalism and personal concern were refreshing in a time that has a shortage of both. Jen took the time to listen to my goals and concerns and then created a plan to fit my specific needs. Of course, the ultimate tool for gauging success is results. Wow! Were there ever results. Not only am I 45 pounds lighter but I have a new perspective on food and on how to keep myself healthy without resorting to "gimmicky" plans. Whatever your personal goals for health or weight loss are, I couldn't be more confident in recommending Jen.

No Brainer, She Rocks!

by janeinbklyn

I gotta say I've seen a couple of nutritionists and my experience w/Jennifer was one of best. She is smart, attentive, warm, non-judgemental, has a great perspective and not only appears to be empathetic but actually listens! I benefitted greatly from our time and wish her the best in a new city.

proper weight loss

by jimmyepin

In the business that I'm in, I need to feel confident. If I'm not confident in myself, my clients can tell. I've tried Atkins, but the weight came back on. I needed help. The small changes that Jennifer helped me work on really helped me in the long-term. I've tried so many gimmicks and realiized that they're not the answer. Weight loss doesn't need to be so difficult. Whether I look better or not, I feel better. And that has made a tremendous impact on me personally and professionally.

Life-Changing

by thiram712

I have lost 33 pounds since I first met with Jennifer. She made losing weight easy, and tailored her advice to my veganism. I've been on Jennifer's "diet" for 10 months now, and I never feel deprived; her advice was sensible, practical and healthy- I would recommend her to anyone who wants to lose weight and feel better. I am healthier, happier, and almost at my goal of 40 pounds. Thank you Jennifer!

Fantastic!!

by stastasch

I saw Jennifer because I could not lose the weight I wanted on the diets I was trying. I'm not on a diet anymore. She taught me how to eat so that I could lose weight. The best part is that I'm not starving (like on past diets). I now eat good foods and can still enjoy those "bad foods" once in a while. I'm able to maintain my goal weight now and feel great. Jennifer was compassionate and so informative. She was great for support. Thank you so much Jennifer!!!
