Eight years later… I still stand by this.

One nutrition trend I’ll probably never get behind is glorifying eating the exact same meals every single day as the gold standard for health.

Can you lose weight that way? Absolutely.

But as a dietitian, I’m thinking beyond the number on the scale.

Every food brings something different to the table—different vitamins, minerals, fibers, phytonutrients, healthy fats, and resistant starches that help support a diverse gut microbiome. Even the way we prepare our food can change the nutrients available to our bodies.

Our bodies are incredibly adaptive. They’ll compensate for a long time.

But my goal isn’t to see how long your body can compensate. My goal is to support it before it has to.

That’s why, when I’m creating meals for my clients, I’m intentionally rotating proteins, grains, fruits, vegetables, legumes, herbs, spices, and cooking methods. Those small differences add up over weeks, months, and years.

This doesn’t mean you can never repeat meals. We all have favorites, and consistency can absolutely be helpful.

It simply means that over time, your body thrives on diversity.

✨ That’s the invisible work of a dietitian. Looking beyond today’s meal and thinking about your health years down the road.

Chicken thighs are one of my favorite examples of why nutrition should never be reduced to “good” or “bad.”

For someone trying to lower LDL cholesterol, chicken breast may be the better choice.

For someone with high energy demands, a physically active lifestyle, or who simply struggles to eat enough throughout the day, chicken thighs can be an incredible option. More calories in a smaller volume can make meeting nutrition needs much more realistic.

The key is looking at the entire meal—not just one ingredient.

Every component of this plate had a purpose.

Because I chose chicken thighs for additional calories and fat, I balanced the rest of the meal with a protein-rich aji verde made with nonfat Greek yogurt, heart-healthy fats from olive oil and avocado, and a fiber-rich roasted corn salad. It isn’t about maximizing or minimizing one nutrient—it’s about creating an overall dietary pattern that supports someone’s individual health goals.

That’s what personalized nutrition looks like.

Not eliminating foods.

Not labeling foods as “good” or “bad.”

Looking at the whole picture and building meals around the person eating them.

✨ I’m currently onboarding a limited number of households for my private, in-home nutrition concierge service. Every menu is thoughtfully designed around your health goals, schedule, preferences, lifestyle, and medical needs. If you’re ready for nutrition that’s truly tailored to you, I’d love to connect.

This morning, while sipping decaf coffee on my patio and listening to the birds, I found myself thinking about something that comes up often with the women I work with.

Many women navigating perimenopause are looking for that one supplement, that one food, or that one thing that’s going to help them sleep better, have more energy, improve digestion, and feel more like themselves again.

And while those things can absolutely play a role, I’ve noticed something else.

Boundaries.

Not just boundaries with other people.

Boundaries with work.

Boundaries with food that doesn’t make us feel our best.

Boundaries with workouts that leave us depleted instead of supported.

Boundaries with our schedules, our energy, and the constant pressure to push through.

As I’ve been navigating perimenopause myself, I’ve noticed that the better I get at honoring my boundaries, the better I tend to sleep. The better I digest. The more energy I have. The more resilient I feel.

I’m not saying boundaries fix everything.

But I do think perimenopause has a way of shining a light on the places where we’ve been overriding ourselves for far too long.

What if, for some of us, the answer isn’t more discipline?

What if it’s more support?

An organized refrigerator is nice.

What matters is what it represents.

Every meal in here was planned with a specific person in mind.

(Truly tailored by a master’s level registered dietitian and medical chef to their goals, preferences, lifestyle, and needs.)

Most people already know they should eat more protein.

They know they should eat more vegetables.

They know meal prep would probably make their lives easier.

The challenge usually isn’t knowing what to do.

It’s having the time, energy, and capacity to do it consistently.

This is where being both a dietitian and a chef matters.

It’s not just knowing what someone should eat.

It’s knowing what they’ll actually eat.

What will still taste good on Thursday.

What will hold up in the refrigerator.

What fits their schedule.

What supports their specific goals and health needs .

What feels realistic for the season of life they’re in.

A lot of thought goes into every container before it ever makes it into the refrigerator.

Then I stock the shelves, clean up the kitchen, and leave my clients with one less thing to think about.

Because healthy eating gets a whole lot easier when the planning, shopping, cooking, and decision-making are already done.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, stepdads, grandfathers, father figures, and men who show up for the people they love.

Today, we’d like to recognize a dad who has been an important part of the Tailored Bites journey: THE Grill Master, David.

Many of you have seen David behind the scenes over the years. Whether he’s at the grill, making deliveries, helping with events, troubleshooting equipment, or stepping in wherever he’s needed, one thing has always been true:

David shows up.

Beyond Tailored Bites, David is a devoted husband and father of five. The same qualities that make him an incredible dad are the same qualities that make him such a valued part of our team—integrity, reliability, kindness, humility, and a willingness to serve others without expecting anything in return.

Over the years, he’s made countless deliveries, solved countless problems, survived air conditioning breakdowns, made emergency Home Depot runs, and grilled more chicken than any human should reasonably be expected to grill.

More importantly, he’s been someone people can count on.

As we celebrate Father’s Day, we’re grateful for fathers like David who remind us that strength isn’t always loud. Sometimes it’s simply being dependable, keeping your word, and showing up again and again for the people who matter.

Thank you, David, for everything you do for your family, our clients, and the Tailored Bites team.

Happy Father’s Day to you and to all the fathers and father figures making a difference every day. 🫡

Starting a new series:

Things Rachel Said While Running Entirely on Cortisol.

Most of these videos were recorded live from my tiny first commercial kitchen while I was waiting for clients I didn’t have, writing meal plans for the ones I did, and trying to build Tailored Bites from scratch.

This was years before ChatGPT, AI content tools, caption generators, and all the things people use today.

It was just me, a phone, a lot of caffeine, a lot of cortisol, and apparently some very strong opinions about nutrition.

What’s funny is that I’ve started digging through these old videos, and I still agree with most of them.

Including this one.

Yes, nutrition can help us look good.

But I’ve always cared more about what nutrition helps us do.

Move well.
Feel well.
Stay independent.
Maintain our health.
And yes… wipe our own ass for longer.

The delivery may have been aggressive, but I stand by the message.

Get ready. There are a lot more where these came from.

Putting on this apron for the second-to-last Friday in this kitchen feels a little surreal.

It’s been a little quieter around here lately because I’ve been doing a lot of soul searching and getting clear on what I want the next chapter of my life and business to look like.

One of the hardest lessons I’ve learned as a business owner over the last nine years is that not everything is meant to scale.

For years, I tried to build systems, teams, and processes that could replicate the level of care I wanted clients to receive. What I didn’t fully appreciate was the cost of carrying all of it—the kitchen, the overhead, the team, the training, the management, and the responsibility.

For a long time, I told myself that was simply the price of growth.

But eventually I realized something important:

Just because I can carry something doesn’t mean it’s supporting me.

As someone who spends her days helping clients create lives that better support their health and wellbeing, I realized it was time to start asking myself the same questions.

The answer wasn’t getting bigger.

The answer was getting more aligned.

I have two more weekends cooking out of this kitchen before I close a chapter that has shaped so much of my life over the last nine years.

As bittersweet as this transition is, I know it’s the right one.

Because I’m not walking away from the work I love.

I’m moving closer to it.

Leaning into a model that allows me to fully bring my clinical expertise, culinary background, years of experience, clinical judgment, creativity, and attention to detail to every client I serve.

I’m still here.

Still a registered dietitian.

Still a medical chef.

Still helping people use food as medicine.

Just with a model that’s a lot more aligned.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey.

Now it’s just gonna be me, the client, the care, and the food.

Because at the end of the day, Tailored Bites is me. 💗

Special diets aren’t a niche. They’re a need.

Celiac. Food aversions. Performance nutrition. We build around all of it, with the clinical knowledge to back it up and food ready to go when life doesn’t slow down.

One of the most overlooked parts of a diagnosis is the overwhelm that comes after it.

The appointments.
The lab work.
The Google searches.
The fear.

And somewhere in the middle of it all, someone says:
‘You should change your nutrition.’

But almost nobody explains how to make that sustainable in real life.

That’s the work we do every day.
Helping people reconnect the dots between health recommendations and actual human life.

She gained weight.
Her cardiology team was thrilled.

This is one of those moments that deserves to be talked about more.

A recent client came to us needing support around her cardiac health, with a goal of gaining weight in a way that still supported her labs.

Because that’s the nuance most people miss.

It’s not just about weight loss or weight gain.
It’s about how the body is supported in the process.

Instead of restricting, we focused on what her body actually needed.
Nourishment. Structure. Consistency.

Over time, not only did her cardiac markers improve…
her weight increased in a way that supported her overall health.

That’s not accidental.
There’s an art and a clinical strategy to doing that well.

Not all weight gain is a problem.
Sometimes, it’s the solution.

This is what happens when clinical nutrition is actually implemented in real life, not just recommended.

So proud of our team—especially Sam, who’s been overseeing this case and implementing the work behind the scenes every single week.

If you’ve been trying to figure this out on your own, you don’t have to.

This is what we do.
