As an overweight, middle-aged dude, I was concerned that Rebecca's background seemed to be working…read morewith athletes. But, after interviewing her, I was comfortable it was a good fit. We have worked together for about a year, and she has patiently helped me put together a plan that includes a food log, and exercise that fit my lifestyle and schedule. She has been non-judgmental and firm but encouraging through my numerous stops and starts. She truly understands the emotional component of food addiction. It 's not enough to intellectually know what to do. She helps you deal with the "inner kid" who keeps you from doing what's in your own best interest. I highly recommend her whether you are an elite athlete, or just beginning your journey toward healthy living.

I did not know what I was looking for in a nutritionist, but I did know that I was done with diets…read moreand wanted to develop a healthy relationship with food. Rebecca is leading me on a journey to do just that. She identified my core problems with food, mainly that I was prone to over-restricting (and therefore under-eating) with intermittent binges. After only a few sessions with Rebecca, I feel so much happier and healthier. Until Rebecca identified my emotional eating habits, I did not realize that I was using food to stifle difficult feelings. Now Rebecca is working with me to help me get in touch with my "intuitive eater." My only regret is that I did not have time for more sessions this summer, since I will be returning to school soon. But Rebecca has promised to stay in touch via email, Skype, and phone, and after only a week away she has stayed true to her promise. Rebecca can help you get to the bottom of your problems with food, and she will guide you in developing a lifestyle plan that works for you and your body. I really could not be happier with this experience.

I completed Lindsay's 6 week program and wow! I can truly say that it was a life changing…read moreexperience!! In the past 4 years, I had gained 40+ lbs due to some special medicine I was taking (and probably some overeating of hamburgers too haha). I tried EVERYTHING to get rid of it. Juice cleanses, special diets, pills, multiple private trainers, you name it and I had done it. Unfortunately, nothing stuck. Knowing my wedding was just around the corner, I had to do something to get the weight off for good. I wanted to feel confident on my wedding day! I found Lindsay through a quick yelp search and was intrigued. Let's get this straight. This is not a special fad diet or some strict eating plan, its a way of life! Lindsay gives you the tools, skills, and mindset to make a long lasting change in your lifestyle. During the course of the 6 weeks, I lost 8+ lbs and now (more than 3 months later) I'm still continuing to lose weight by following what she taught me. I plan to be at my goal weight in the next 3 months (in time for my wedding!) And most importantly, I feel fantastic!!!!! I feel like a whole new person. Yes, it's a monetary investment but it was worth every penny :) do it!!!

I'm very happy I decided to use Lindsay! I just completed her 6-week program. As someone who has…read morealways been fixated on the latest diet and exercise trend, I feel like this time I actually learned how to have a healthy lifestyle versus temporary fixes. What I appreciated the most was her accessibility. She would review menus of restaurants I was eating at or provide me with customized recommendations. When I was frustrated with results or what the scale said, she was non-judgmental and offered helpful advice for how to overcome cravings or emotional reactions. In fact, I was surprised (in a good way) by how much of the program was centered around mindfulness and balance. Even though the program only includes 4 sessions, I felt like I was in constant communication with Lindsay and she genuinely cared about my progress. She frequently sent email updates and checked in, and when I had questions, she was never more than a text away. I am excited to see continued progress. I would recommend Lindsay to anyone!

After putting on 15 pounds of baby weight and unsuccessfully trying to lose it on my own for…read moreseveral months, I decided to start working with Olga. I already had a pretty healthy diet and am a regular exerciser, but at 40, my usual methods were not working. After working with Olga for 2 weeks, I've already lost 4 pounds. She taught me more about the science of nutrition, reviewed my daily food logs, and pointed out where my well-meaning efforts to eat clean were actually counterproductive. So I've been following her guidance, and it is working! I also appreciate that she is knowledgeable about vegetarianism (I have been a vegetarian for 30 years) and has helped me create an eating plan within my lifestyle preferences. Lastly, Olga not only has wonderful expertise about nutrition, but she helped me with digestion and blood sugar issues too. She has been reliable, responsive, on time, and detail oriented. She even helped me pick out what to eat from some restaurant menus when I was on vacation. She has been great overall and I have learned a lot in a short time.

Prior to working with Linda of Simple Well Being I struggled with my diet and nutrition to get down to my goal weight for my triathlon and bike racing. With Linda, I got practical and very helpful advice to help me work towards my personal goals. I learned a lot about the foods I should be eating more of and some eye opening food errors on my part. I have since made several small tweaks to my eating and meal preparation that have paid big dividends. Linda has helped me focus on my meal planning, basics to have in my kitchen, and foods to avoid. I have since lost weight, increased my energy level, and friends are asking me what I am doing differently since the changes are so pronounced. If you are looking for someone to help you tweak your diet and get you into living a healthier lifestyle then I strongly recommend Linda and Simple Well Being.

She was so knowledgeable about nutrition and lifestyle-I could tell by her pointed questions that kept changing based on what I said that she was truly engaged and analyzing my responses. The consultation was about an hour long, and I have never felt more understood or comfortable with a health care professional. At the end she gave me a summary of her understanding of the root of my problems- it's hard to analyze your own situation objectively, and hearing someone else describe it is quite cathartic. She recommended some dietary changes and a couple of supplements and I will be following up in the next month. Really a wonderful, intelligent professional, and I recommend you speak with her before wasting your time and money seeking out traditional health care professionals or self-diagnosing and self-treating your issues (like I did for so many years...!) Can't say enough!

I took my first class at FitCrushDC recently and had a positive first impression…read more Parking: The studio sits on its own with parking out front. A spot for your car is not something most boutique studios boast, so yay FitCrush. Studio: Beautifully decorated, with motivating quotes and zen-boosting decor. You can tell the level of detail put into making it feel home-y and not sleek, which can sometimes make studios come across as cold and pretentious. Equipment: Top-notch fitness equipment like thick non-slip mats, knee pads, and colorful weights (to make lifting that much more fun). Down to the safe cleaning products. Class: Pop pilates was a lot of fun and complemented the previous day's weightlifting with long stretches and bodyweight movements. -- I'm not sure if this occurred because of the change into the new year, but I had previously signed up for certain classes/slots that were then moved, with no notification sent to me. Luckily, I was able to spot and drop in time.

The Barre Body by Lisa class was challenging with enough mix of cardio and core strengthening. It was more of a yoga flow feel than small receptive movements like other barre studios.

After leaving class and being 15 minutes out on the beltway, I realized I left my winter jacket at the studio. I called immediately and the owner answered and was kind enough to wait 40 minutes for me to come get my jacket! Thank you FitCrush for the positive experience.
