What Clients Say
“Janet Zalman’s program works. It combines nutrition education with a coaching strategy for success — helping individuals lose weight, decrease cravings, and manage their food at home, at restaurants, and while traveling.”
— David A. Kessler, M.D.
Former Commissioner, U.S. Food and Drug Administration
“My primary care physician recommended Janet Zalman for nutrition counseling to achieve my weight loss goal. No more attempts to do this solo.
Janet has proven to be a superb “Coach” who provides great support, encouragement, and guidance. Since January 2023, I have enjoyed great success in weight loss. I look and feel so much better.
If I can do it, so can anyone else, but the key for me has been Janet Zalman. Your body will thank you.”
— J.C.
“Janet helped me lose nearly forty pounds and keep it off for years. Her sensible, non-judgmental, and wise approach permanently changed my relationship with food. Janet coached me through the guilt and emotion around eating and replaced it with practical, common-sense planning that has stayed with me.”
— Niki C.
“All of my life I had been able to eat whatever I liked without gaining weight or having health problems. But in my retirement I gained 20 pounds, and my blood sugar spiked to pre-diabetic levels. My internist recommended that I see Janet Zalman, and it has been a game changer.
Without experiencing hunger I have lost almost 20 pounds, and my fitness for and enjoyment of tennis, golf and biking has greatly increased. And my blood sugar has dropped to healthy levels (to be verified — I am getting a blood test tomorrow!).
I am now optimistic that I will be healthy and strong for the foreseeable future. thanks to Janet Zalman.”
— Adam W.
