It seems as though we barely have time to do the important things in life, like taking care of our health (or those long naps on a comfy couch, who am I kidding?!). It is increasingly difficult to be able to budget our precious time to make it out somewhere to achieve our health goals. Being that we are so connected to those crazy interwebs these days, I figured I would try to take care of my wellness through an online format. Enter: Expertory.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"skype call\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/10\/digital-weight-loss-consultations-on-expertory-virtually-eliminate-all-excuses-for-skipping-meetings\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-91935\" alt=\"skype-call\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/skype-call.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/skype-call.jpg 600w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/skype-call-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.expertory.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Expertory<\/a> <\/strong>is a website dedicated to educating on YOUR terms, not the schedule of someone else you have to work around. <strong><a title=\"weight loss excuses\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/slideshows\/5-resolution-excuses-busted\/\">I had no excuse<\/a><\/strong> like \u201cOh, I can\u2019t make it at this time because of this, or this time because of that.\u201d Your workouts or counseling sessions are achieved through video chats that you schedule with their enormous panel of experts, which range from fitness and nutrition experts to people who can teach you to speak Mandarin!<\/p>\n<p>Being several years off of the Biggest Loser, I have a stubborn 20 pounds I wish to lose which have crept back on me (much better than <strong><a title=\"mark pinhasovich biggest loser winner\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/08\/mark-pinhasovich-biggest-loser-10-contestant\/\">the 213 pounds I had to lose originally<\/a><\/strong>!). I am pretty happy where I am now, as I am fit and healthy beyond my wildest dreams, but just want to tone up a bit more. Since I work out like a fiend, I know it is my diet that needs cleaning up, which is why I decided to book a session with Amy Goldsmith, a nutritionist, whose session was titled \u201cBoosting Your Metabolism.\u201d<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Right off the bat, Amy was very friendly and willing to get to it. She had a nice setup in the background with health inspiring posters as well as a whiteboard that she offered to write out anything I needed. She said I was along the right track with my workouts, as increasing muscle mass helps boost metabolism, but suspected my <strong><a title=\"how much sleep do we need\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/08\/how-much-sleep-do-you-really-need-new-research-points-to-a-magic-number\/\">sleep habits were not good<\/a><\/strong>. Correct!<\/p>\n<p>She asked me to take her through a typical day with my diet and lo and behold, it turned out I wasn\u2019t eating enough! That\u2019s right, folks, by eating more, you can actually lose weight! Now that doesn\u2019t mean you should hit the buffet or go to town on the dollar menu. She wanted me to eat more quality foods, and quality carbs actually, like fruit and sweet potatoes for example. She also suggested to change up the foods I eat to make it more interesting and also to keep my body on its toes and constantly fired up!<\/p>\n<p>Per her recommendation, I need to make REALISTIC changes, not DRASTIC ones as we can be so accustomed to doing.<\/p>\n<p>I have to say, I was a bit skeptical about doing an online session, as I am definitely more of an in-person type of guy. But in this fast paced world where time is so fleeting, a service like Expertory virtually eliminates all excuses.
