Weight Loss Nutritionist San Francisco - San Francisco, California

Julie Cattiau

This review is for anyone who, like me, struggled to lose weight after pregnancy. 18 months after giving birth, I still had 10 stubborn pounds clinging on and felt frustrated and uncomfortable. I had tried different things on my own, but nothing seemed to work. I had almost given up when I met Rania!

Rania focused on helping me develop healthy habits that fit my lifestyle. One of the biggest changes we made was to progressively stop the evening snacking, which made a huge difference. Rania also helped me create a balanced diet that was actually delicious and sustainable with go-to recipes and go-to options at my favorite restaurants.

In just over 90 days, I finally reached my goal and lost those 10 pounds! But more importantly, I feel empowered with the knowledge and habits to keep the weight off for good (or at least, until the next pregnancy!).

Rania is amazing and if you're looking to lose weight in a healthy and realistic way, I highly recommend her! I'm beyond grateful for her help and am convinced I could not have reached my goal without her. Thank you Rania!!

I had the pleasure of working with Rania for the last few months, and she and her plan are truly incredible! Rania doesn’t teach a diet, she teaches you an eating strategy you can use in any situation. I was able to lose 12 pounds in 90 days with her, while eating all my favorite foods. I highly recommend working with Rania!

I have been working with Rania from Essential Nutrition for about ten weeks now, and hands down, it has been one of the best things I ever did for myself. For me, it was, literally, life-changing!
Up to this point, I’d not been successful in moderating or changing my eating habits. But working with her changed that! I’ve never worked 1 on 1 with a nutritionist before and was worried that I would have to count calories or make some special dishes for myself.
Rania and her book 'The One One One Diet' gently introduced me to the world of proper nutrition, without starving or deprivation, and I was astounded that with her guidelines and strategies, my body responded by dropping over 22 lbs in 10 weeks.
I am feeling great, I eat with my family and don't count carbs, calories, or macros. Just normal, proper nutrition. Best of all, my portions and cravings reduced significantly. I feel like a different person.
Rania is kind and compassionate in addition to being professional and knowledgeable. My outlook on food and myself has completely changed, and I’m sure I wouldn’t have gotten to this place without her.

Rania has helped me to lose weight when all other strategies and "diets" failed. Her 1,1,1 strategy approach is effective, doable, and a sustainable way to eat. I don't feel punished, deprived, or left out of social eating. Rania has taught me the “tricks” for handling situations like dinner parties, family events, etc. that could stall progress and instead I look forward to being included. She is extremely practical, compassionate, and not at all judgmental. I highly recommend her for anyone who needs advice and support for losing weight without all of the nonsense. She is the best!!”

I have been following the One One One lifestyle plan since the beginning of the year and working with Rania since March. I am just shy of losing 40 pounds! I feel so much better, have so much more energy, and I can't say it has really been all that difficult, unlike other diets I've tried in the past. It's super easy and even the fitness and self care ideas have been helpful to make me a much more balanced person. I highly recommend Rania!

I worked with Rania in preparation for my upcoming wedding and I couldn't be happier with my results. Following her plan that we created together allowed me to continue to enjoy the foods I love while still losing weight at a comfortable pace. I'm down 18 pounds from my heaviest point and couldn't be happier with my results! Rania was amazing with check ins and being my biggest cheerleader / helping me course correct when necessary. Amazing services!

Working with Essential Nutrition For You has made a positive impact in my life. Rania provided me with a clear roadmap, guiding me through each step of my journey. The best part of this program besides working with Rania is that it is structured to fit your lifestyle. There are minimal restrictions on what you can eat while utilizing the easy to follow formula of 1:1:1.

The program's structure and duration were just right to jumpstart my journey to wanting a healthier relationship with food. In my never ending quest to simplify my life, this eating approach has allowed me to make sustainable changes and reframe my attitude towards food and eating.

Rania supports her clients from a place of warmth and compassion. In this day and age, expensive online/PDF programs with generic support are far too common and impersonal. The one on one with Rania allows clients to get a customized program that is suited for the individual and their goals. If you want to reset your relationship with food and need some additional support, consider Essential Nutrition For You.

Rania really helped me change the way I think about eating. Before meeting with her I was really struggling with my weight, my energy, my body changes, etc. I felt that I needed to make big changes to my diet and eating habits in order to feel a change. But with her method and coaching, I realized that what I really needed to do was just make simple changes to what I was already doing and I really felt and saw a big difference. She is very encouraging and helpful and has great advice and great recipes to go along with her coaching. I would highly recommend her!
