Bonni London – The Woman I Love To Hate is a top Sarasota Nutritionist

I am a confessed food junkie.  And the junkier the food, the more I crave it.  My car nosedives into every Taco Bell and McDonalds and I have never met anything fried that I did not like.  However, as the clock keeps ticking and the metabolism changes, I knew that I had to make changes as well.  So, a friend did an intervention and suggested I make a visit to London Wellness for a  tune-up.  It was hate at first sight.  Ms. London, is thin, trim, in great shape and beautiful as well.  I doubt that an unhealthy carbohydrate has ever passed her lips.  After testing which the results of I will not share concerning my body fat ratio she began to speak to me of nutrition.  Huh?  I then gave her a list of my food consumption on a normal day and waited for her to come out of shock.  She calmly took the eating plan she had prepared and put it back on her desk.  I was thankful since I had no idea what anti-oxidents, tofu and bean sprouts were for anyway.  She realized that we were going to have to take baby steps.  As resistant as I had felt when entering, I begin to actually hear what she was saying and decided that I could probably make a few changes and not feel totally deprived.  She gave me a list of the foods to totally avoid and we really had to negotiate.  I thought that just cutting out the Caramel Frappe and Sausage McMuffin each morning was a huge move and she was not all that impressed.  So, I also let go of the Hagen-Daz before bed.  I am two weeks into the program, have cheated like crazy but still cut my intake of “bad” food by about 40% and know that she will not see it as the huge improvement that I do.  But, I look forward to seeing her next week and getting the kick that I need to do even better.  I still hate her.  Please take a look at her webpage because she really does make sense.  I just don't want to hear it.
