5 Stars: A Great Learning Experience (by Sarah Marie)

Sarah Marie — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 09:00:00 GMT

Having been a former dancer I had a very regimented lifestyle with little to no difficulty to maintain. Exercising and eating changed completely once I retired from performing, and so did my body. I was frustrated with myself for reasons that I could not even understand, until I went to Nutrition Counseling Services. Jennifer is a great listener, and helped me to understand what had changed, why my body was responding to food differently and what I needed to do to reach my realistic goals. I had no concept of what was even realistic until we met. I also had no idea it was so easy to eat well and live almost the same as I had been with minor changes in food preparation and becoming educated about eating out. It is so enlightening to understand what happens when you have the right amount of what you need and the right amount of excercise. It made me think why doesn't everyone learn this in school? Nutrition Counseling Services is a wonderful place to become informed and make positive life changing habits.

Jennifer has been an amazing source of support during a fragile time. She is very knowledgeable and concerned with developing a plan that works for your individual needs. I'm so glad to have met her and look forward to having her around for a while....

5 Stars: helped so much (by waltmull)

Jennifer helped put things in perspective. Still does. I haven't been a (active) client for a while but we still stay in touch.
I learned a lot about health and food but most of all learned how to change things for the long-term. It's made a difference.

Jennifer, you truly deserve "Best Nutritionist" as you've helped so many of us reach our goals in a way that works with our life.
I was a pain in the butt...she dealt with me, made it work, and made me laugh!

5 Stars: Education, Personalization and Attention. (by michellelukezic)

Jennifer is great at figuring out what ratios and foods work best for your unique body & system. She helps tweak your diet so you can figure out what works best for you. Being vegetarian I was excited to work with someone who understood my choice and did not try to alter my foods but rather fine-tune the types of foods I was already eating.

5 Stars: In case you're on the fence, yes it's worth it! (by Lalymar)

Lalymar — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 09:00:00 GMT

I went to Jennifer to get back on track. I had lost weight before but after several years it was creeping back on and I knew that I had lost focus. I wanted to be at a healthy weight and have healthy habits in place in order to start planning a family. Jennifer gave easy to follow advice (I took loads of notes!) as well as motivation and inspiration. I am down to the weight I was at when i lost weight before, and I feel like I can keep going even further! What is great is that while I still do indulge from time to time, I am much more aware of it and I eat a lot less of the indulgence than I would have. All in all, if it's something you're considering, I say your time and money will be well spent!

5 Stars: Couldn't have had a better experience (by mchl09)

mchl09 — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 09:00:00 GMT

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.

5 Stars: She is the GREATEST (by theatre)

theatre — Sun, 05 Apr 2009 09:00:00 GMT

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.

5 Stars: Jennifer Made me a happier person!!! (by EmMcGHorne)

EmMcGHorne — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 09:00:00 GMT

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!!

5 Stars: Progress report...10/23/09 (by jtighe)

jtighe — Mon, 23 Feb 2009 09:00:00 GMT

Well it's been 9 months since my first consultation with Jennifer, so I thought I would give a follow-up on my progress. I have lost a total of 22 pounds and kept it off. It feels nice to fit into those 32 waist pants again. Through Jennifer's advice and inspiration, I can truly say my life has changed dramatically. I look and feel better, and have more energy now than I have had since my teens. Jennifer's personal approach and individualized service is second to none. I would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking to improve their life. Thank you again Jennifer, and I look forward to our next meeting.

5 Stars: AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!! (by EBrooklyn)

EBrooklyn — Mon, 19 May 2008 09:00:00 GMT

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!

5 Stars: awareness!! (by jimmyfootball)

jimmyfootball — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 09:00:00 GMT

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.

5 Stars: Very knowledgeable and helpful (by wendyadrienne)

wendyadrienne — Sun, 10 Dec 2006 09:00:00 GMT

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

5 Stars: Absolutely outstanding (by kjhobbes)

kjhobbes — Fri, 01 Dec 2006 09:00:00 GMT

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.

5 Stars: No Brainer, She Rocks! (by janeinbklyn)

janeinbklyn — Mon, 20 Nov 2006 09:00:00 GMT

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.

5 Stars: proper weight loss (by jimmyepin)

jimmyepin — Thu, 09 Nov 2006 09:00:00 GMT

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.

5 Stars: Life-Changing (by thiram712)

thiram712 — Thu, 09 Nov 2006 09:00:00 GMT

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!

5 Stars: Fantastic!! (by stastasch)

stastasch — Wed, 08 Nov 2006 09:00:00 GMT

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!!!
