Meet me!!
I'm Josh, the owner of Fundamental Dietetics. I grew up in the city of Wagga Wagga in the Riverina region of New South Wales. The only child of a single mother, food was an early hobby and obsession of mine. Knowing that food wasn’t always going to be plentiful, I never turned food back and ate whatever I was given with minimal fuss. Because of this, I never truly learnt about the fundamentals of eating, especially that of appetite regulation. I gained a lot of weight and was bullied mercilessly as a result. At the age of 8 I was diagnosed pre-diabetic and had to start to work on my diet and food education. I learnt how to read a food label and the importance of fruit and vegetables for low calorie eating.
10 years later I was off to the University of Wollongong to study a Bachelor of Science majoring in nutrition. I graduated in 2015 and was accepted into the Masters of Nutrition and Dietetics program also at UOW, of which I was graduate in 2017.
Over the last 7 years I have developed an approach to dietetics which is based on feasibility and realness. I develop meal plans with the client at the forefront and I educate in a manner which truly brings the fun back into the fundamentals of food and nutrition. If you are ready to make a change to your diet or want to learn the basics of cooking at home on a budget, please reach out!
