Hey there! I’m Jill Weisenberger …
… a registered dietitian nutritionist, certified diabetes care and education specialist, certified health and wellness coach and certifiable food lover.
Changing my habits and thoughts brought me greater health and more joy. I’ve helped thousands of others improve their health too.
I remember when I thought it was a personal weakness that my lunch started at a fast food restaurant and ended with chocolate. Why didn’t I simply do what I knew was right? After some soul-searching and a few (or a lot) of missteps, I did. Bit by bit, I created my healthy habits and a bucket of energy by setting myself up for success, relying on solid routines, changing my mindset, and dropping that useless view that eating and exercise are either all good or all bad. With relief, I discovered that not eating perfectly isn’t a personal weakness.
I can help you too.
Whether you have diabetes, prediabetes, heart disease or you simply need a better way to lead your life to avoid health problems down the road, you’ll find answers to your questions about food, nutrition and healthy habits right here.

My background includes a B.S. in Professional Writing from Champlain College and certifications in cognitive coaching, Ashtanga Yoga, and personal training. Back in the day, I set 15 records in drug-free amateur powerlifting with record lifts of 190 lb. bench press, 265 lb. squat, and a 300 lb. deadlift. (You can find old competition videos on YouTube!) No more heavy lifting for me these days, but you will find me using most of my free-time jumping rope, lifting light weights, walking my dog with my handsome fella, sprinting up and down the sidewalk, and scootering with my kiddos in empty parking lots.
Today, I am a mother of two little ladies, living in Vermont with my handsome fella and the world’s most loyal pups, Petey and Wilma.
