CUSTOM NUTRITION
BY DASHA
Hey KB & Anderson’s Fam,
CALORIES? PROGRAM EXERCISE?
How Important Is this?
(This study speaks for itself)
READ THIS:
A study examined the discrepancy between the actual number of calories consumed
and exercise performed and progress (in this case, fat loss).
*REMEMBER – you do NOT want to lose weight, you want to lose fat and gain strength, muscle.
In obese subjects who are struggling in their weight loss endeavors, the researchers found that all of the participants (obese subjects who believed that they had “diet resistance”) in fact had normal metabolisms.
It turns out they were underestimating/ underreporting their caloric intake by a 47 percent and overestimating/ over-reporting their physical activity by 51 percent!
The subjects thought they were eating half of the calories they actually were, and, they were burning a lot less – hence why knowing your intake and quality of food is crucial, not forever but for the beginning of your lifestyle changes.
AND, why strength-training properly will help with calorie expenditure, fat loss through having metabolically more active tissue (muscle).
This way you don’t have to run around on a hamster wheel or eat lettuce for breakfast, lunch, dinner.
*BY THE WAY, MY FIT FRIENDS
If you haven’t seen all the results you want, here’s why…
In other studies, lean subjects tend to under report by 30 percent, and even nutritionists under report by 20 percent.
As soon as people learn how to track their calories and macros accurately, voila!-they start making progress.
Knowing what you are doing in your training, and WHY, as well as knowing your specific caloric, macro and food pairing needs (for your body type and goals) is crucial.

IS NUTRITION YOUR MISSING LINK?
If you have been on a ‘cleanse, diet or have simply agonized about your food – be it for weight loss, muscle building, overall health, or something more specific like lowering cholesterol or optimizing your energy, mood, and/ performance – nutrition just may very well be your missing link.
Diets Don’t Work for Two Reasons :
1. They are not sustainable (a restrictive eating plan is not a life plan)
2. The quality of the food you take in (nutrient density) determines the quality of your tissue (muscle, bone, organs, the function of the brain), as well as how your body recovers and rebuilds.
The only way to get to the exact place you want in your goals, be they aesthetic or otherwise is to rebuild your habits, learn about your body’s personal needs, identify how it functions best and then, place that, along with high quality, satisfying nutrients, and optimized food pairing into the body.
Dasha believes in custom nutrition because, simply- we all look, feel, and function differently. We respond to stimuli differently, and our body makes its adaptations based on our unique lifestyles, habits, and regiments.
Custom nutrition programming with Dasha is outlined below, and like everything else, it’s a journey of transformation and education – an investment in yourself.

DETAILS ON 12 MONTH
CUSTOM NUTRITION PROGRAMMING
Dasha’s programming prioritizes your unique goals with, health, longevity, wellness, strength, and sustainability.
What it takes: 12 months of casework; you and Dasha (don’t panic, you’ll learn a TON about your body and yourself).
Plus Dasha will layout every step into easy monthly plans and adjustments.
Dasha’s 3 Phase Custom Plan
Phase 1: A custom plan requires investigation:
After an initial 14-day food log and goal discussion, Dasha will present an outline of the first several months.
During that period, you will begin to make adjustments in your nutrition in a way that will not send you into a spiral or starvation.
Calories, Macros, Food sources – Your lifestyle!
You will log feedback on how you feel and function, and Dasha will examine your results with your feedback, further adjusting.
Adjustments are made monthly, and education on food substance, grocery lists, ideal pairings for optimized digestion, easy substitutions, and nutrient-dense varieties are all a part of Phase 1.
By the end of this phase, you will have gotten rid of poor habits, began to eat real good food, and learned how to pair and substitute for optimal health, digestion and body composition.
Phase 2:
Your energy levels, moods, and overall health are always the main focal point, however, body composition like muscle or weight-loss will be a big and very satisfying bi-product, and we will focus here in Phase 2.
In Phase 2 Dasha will make the adjustments to make sure you reach your initial and most ideal goals seamlessly, in a healthy and satisfying way.
Phase 3:
Is all about making a lifestyle you can live with, all while keeping heh results you have achieved in Phase 2 & 3.
The goal is to take 12 months, refine, adjust, identify, re-adjust, and transform your body, making your results and new habits a sustainable lifestyle. Yes! you can still have your favorite cake and enjoy life with family and friends at the dinner table while we get you to your optimal body composition, and your strongest, healthiest self.
Important Note:
Dasha does not believe in food group elimination (unless doctor prescribed), quick fixes, diets of any sort (no matter how ‘great’) elimination. She will also do her best to work around any ‘musts’ you have, making this a lifetime change and not a diet. Imagine yourself one year from today.
Requirements
Much like Dasha’s custom exercise programming, this is not one-sided work.
Be ready to get candid, and honest and to put in detective work to identify where your body lives its best life.
* you will need to get Dasha’s feedback, ask questions, present food logs (not daily so do not worry- think 7-10 days out of each month), as well as give real and honest feedback.
