In my association with Donna Wolf I have found her to be an extremely knowledgeable and positive person. Her approach to weight reduction is incremental healthy changes at the clients pace. Her vast knowledge of nutrition, positive approach and flexibility makes her program effective.
I can highly recommend working with Donna and her Healthy Directions program.
Sincerely,

Donna
is a great resource for nutritional information. Her healthy cooking
classes are amazing. She is able to use ingredients I would not have
thought to use and makes delicious recipes for my entire family. Her
presentation, instructions, and the information she provides is
professional. I would recommend her services anytime.

Everyone
should try Donna's cooking classes! Healthy and tasty, they can be
prepared in the blink of an eye for the whole family.

Your
breakfast demo was good. The variety of recipes is helpful. I'm
feeling a lot better. Being in the program is giving me presence of
mind to keep tabs on my body and the fuel it needs and constantly
watching the food that I eat. For so many years, I just threw whatever
in my mouth. Thank you for all your help and encouragement.

I
really enjoyed attending these cooking classes. If you know anyone else
who may enjoy any of the services Healthy Directions offers, please
pass this on! "Donna
Wolf is a Registered Dietitian and a friend of mine. I've attended her
cooking classes in her own kitchen; such a lovely, friendly
atmosphere. I'm planning to attend more! She is genuine and knows how
to make eating & cooking healthy and do-able! I'm learning how to
cook better for my family (and me too). If you love to cook, or you
need to find healthier food choices, come with me to a class or check
it out on your own. Donna is awesome!"

The
pizza class last night was terrific...so much fun, just what I needed.
Let me know your schedule for the next series. Thanks!

Healthy
Directions, what an awesome name! It is NOT about dieting, but about
lifestyle changes toward a path of mindful behaviors which develop
lifelong good habits. I went in with a rebellious attitude and have
traded that in for the knowledge that I CAN follow good habits of
exercise and "normal" eating. Donna Wolf gives gentle guidance and
support. I've been aided by insights from others in the group. I
started seeing results almost immediately. The gentle weight loss of
1-2 pounds per week was good enough for me! After 5 months, I have
lost 30 pounds and 29 cholesterol points! I have been able to
discontinue one of my blood pressure medications and foresee going off
the other soon. I am so happy to be able to MOVE more comfortably and
I can't alter my clothes (down 2-3 sizes) fast enough!

It
seems like 5 lbs. ago I thought I couldn't get the scale to go down. I
have made a lot of changes in my life this year and I am happy to say
that I am much healthier now.

I
enjoyed the tour and felt like the "hands on" was more real to me than
just talking about it. We all had questions about foods that pertained
to each of us and you gave answers which further helps in making
decisions when we are shopping. Comparing food labels in the store
takes loads of time, but with you there to interpret some of the
language, it became easier to see that it is very important to continue
to do this. The fact is becoming clearer to me that the more basic the
food, the better for you. I enjoyed the field trip and hope you do
other trips in the future.

The
Healthy Directions of Poway program has taught me how to keep my body
properly fueled with energy, thus strengthening healthy eating habits
and mindful eating. I have lost 20 lbs. in 4 months and I am getting
ready to achieve my major goal, which is running a complete marathon
(23+ miles). If your goal is to improve eating habits, accustom to it,
and consequently lose weight, then I recommend to you the Healthy
Directions of Poway program.

Katie
and Jessica had a great time! It was their first cooking class ever,
so they weren't sure what to expect, but I think they were pleasantly
surprised! Katie has been saying that she wants to make that pork dish
for us for dinner soon. Who am I to say no?...I was looking for a
regular cooking class that she could take during the summer, but
couldn't find anything. I like that your class was about healthy
cooking (so often the classes offered elsewhere showcase more
fat-laden, caloric recipes that I would never choose to cook for my
family). I know that Jessica's mom wanted the same kind of class for
her daughter. Thanks again for the great class.
