River North Nutrition's Online Review Report Card

Ever since working with Maya, I have become so much more aware and knowledgeable about how to help my body get the best nourishment. Growing up as a vegetarian, I always struggled with finding new meals and recipes that were both delicious and healthy. Maya has showed me the way to do so. I was also able to learn about my eating habits and how small, incremental changes can lead to big results. I highly recommend Maya without hesitation. Her knowledge and advice has truly helped me gain a better understanding of what I need to do on a daily basis to live a healthier and happier lifestyle in a realistic manner.

Maya is so wonderful! She provided me with so much guidance and made it so that it wasn’t a chore - I learned so much about how I should be fueling my body and have (finally!) seen the results thanks to her.

I recently completed Maya’s “kickstart nutrition program” and lost 10 pounds over the past month. I’ve never looked and felt better in my life (I’m 38). Maya was alongside during the whole journey, supporting me and giving me valuable feedbacks and information. Not only is she a super knowledgeable and passionate dietitian, she also has the most beautiful soul! I am forever grateful for having found her. Her guidance made a real impact in my life and I could not recommend her enough!

I was fortunate enough to find Maya through my girlfriend who had tremendous success with her. Maya has an extraordinary amount of nutritional information and she is very enjoyable to work with (she never makes you feel badly when you have an off day bc she’s know we’re all human). She has developed a really slick Mobile App that makes it easy to communicate, but also tracks your food, exercise, and weight. Maya was most supportive in helping me alter my diet to more healthy substitutes for the things that I enjoy. I would highly recommend May to anyone who is looking to improving their eating habits.

Working with Maya gave me the confidence I needed when going out to eat, grocery shopping, and cooking food at home. Maya tells you how to eat while not being restrictive in any way. She doesn't just give you supplements and tell you to not have alcohol or desserts. She is REALISTIC and that's why I felt so empowered on my weight loss journey. Since starting with Maya, I am down 20 lbs with a goal of dropping another 15 lbs. Thanks to Maya I will be able to accomplish this goal. I have never lost weight without doing a crazy diet where you gain it all back the minute you eat something off of the plan. What I have learned from Maya I will carry with me for the rest of my life. Couldn't recommend Maya enough!!!

Words cannot describe how amazing it was working with Maya. The last two photos is when I was weighing in at my 170'ws. By the time I started with Maya, i had somehow managed to lose weight after months of trying. MY weight has fluctuated all my life. I started working with Maya right at the end of Oct. By Jan, I was down to my 120s. No gimmicks, no pills, or crazy dieting. I didn't even exercise! (had intended to just didn't have the right tools to do so) Maya helped me find recipes and would adjust them to keep them healthy, listened to my concerns, was there when i needed help the most, helped me learn portion control, AND was an awesome support system to have. She stayed on top me with making sure I was meeting my goals, and motivated me to keep going. I never really knew how helpful it could be to work with a dietician until I was given the opportunity to do so! Maya became my friend and confidant. If you're willing to put in the work, stay dedicated and are looking for someone who you can talk to, Maya is your girl. *most recent pic was me 02/13/2022

Working with Maya was absolutely great. I was looking for a nutritionist who was also vegan--and in Maya I found both! I did her 3 week kickstart program, and not only did I learn a TON about nutrition and rethink my relationship with food, but Maya made the whole journey feel personal and customized. She was my accountability partner the whole time, and really set me up to have an informed and positive relationship with food that fit within my busy lifestyle and catered to my wants & needs. Highly recommend working with Maya!

Maya has completely changed my relationship with food in the best way. She learned my schedule and the foods I enjoyed and then worked with me to introduce more balanced meals/snacks. I was able to lose weight while still going out to eat and enjoying the foods I love. Maya made the whole process stress-free - I highly recommend!

I had been struggling with crashing in the afternoon almost daily for many weeks. After my meet and great with Maya, I decided to give a three month session a go. Working together with her, we examined some food behaviors and made some changes to my diet. I followed her advice on salt, caffeine, and vegetable intake. At the end of our time together, I had gone a whole week without crashing in the afternoon. I'm really jazzed about this and glad to get additional time and energy back in my day.

Working with Maya made me realize this journey is not about giving into the hype of trying new diets or fads, but rather going back to the basics and fueling our bodies with proper nutrition. Although my journey is still going, Maya gave me all the tools to be successful through this journey and made it super simple to follow. She helped guide me through portions and how to balance my meals better. She was attentive and available to answer all my questions and helped me feel satiated without having to give up treats completely. This program helped me see the progress on the scale that I hadn't seen in a long time but also helped me feel good in other aspects of my life like having improved energy. Thank you Maya for all your support!
