Testimonials

Gracious words from our “Know It All” Clients:

“Lisa and Lynne are amazing professionals who have helped us to make positive changes in our lives.  After a lifetime of sitting behind desks all day and sitting in front of the TV at night, we decided we needed to improve our health — by changing how we ate and by getting up and moving, but we didn’t know where to start.  We needed help. Lisa and Lynne were just what we needed.  Michael sees Lisa and I see Lynne.  Each developed (with our input) personalized eating and exercise plans that helped us to gradually lose the excess weight we wanted to lose and improve our overall health. We lost weight six years ago and have maintained the weight loss.  And we have kept moving — through the gym, classes and in-home exercise.  Our personalized goals have changed as our needs have changed.  They’ve been with us through our initial goal of weight loss to our current goal of long-term health throughout our retirement.  And they’ve helped each of us as we’ve faced changing health issues.  We continue to see them five years later for periodic check-ins and check-ups!  They are a skilled and talented team with proven techniques for helping you to achieve your personal goals. Many thanks to our registered dietitians at “Know It All Nutrition.”

“For most of my life I have been overweight, a typical yo-yo dieter. Then I met Lynne a few years ago and followed her when she opened Know It All Nutrition. She has walked every step of my weight loss journey with me – guiding, teaching and supporting me in whatever I needed. Lynne was able to discuss weight loss options with me and was there to support me when I decided to pursue sleeve gastrectomy surgery. I have lost 80 pounds so far and I’m just beginning. I have learned to eat in a whole new way without feeling deprived but satisfied!! She is the best!! I would not have been able to make this journey without Lynne and I’m so happy I didn’t have to!”

“I was referred to Lisa Staas-Houser from my Primary Care Physician after I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. My blood sugar had gone through the roof and I decided I had to get serious and try to get my blood sugar and weight under control. I had reached an all time high weight of over 250 pounds and had tried several diet plans including Weight Watchers and Nutri System, among others in the past.

After working with Lisa, I am currently at 181 pounds and I am close to my goal weight of 160 pounds. Lisa has helped me work towards my goal. Lisa established an exercise plan along with an eating plan.She has been educating me on quality foods to eat offering several ideas and alternatives.

My diabetes has been under control for several months and my Primary Doctor recently told me I could stop all diabetes medicine ! It has been a long road and it hasn’t always been easy, but Lisa has helped me get and stay on track with her encouragement. Lisa is flexible with appointments in the morning, evening or even weekends.

I would recommend Know it All Nutrition to anyone who is looking to improve eating habits or get blood sugar under control.”

“For most of my life my weight has always been something that I have struggled with. I tried different types of diets and workouts but nothing ever stuck or seemed to produce any real results. Working out was something I always had enjoyed doing yet I never saw great results from it due to the fact that I didn’t put much consideration into my diet. Everything changed for me once I met Lynne. She taught me how to calculate not only my calories but also how much fat and protein I needed in my diet as well. She taught me how to be aware of what I was eating and also introduced me to alternatives that were healthier. I became much more aware of what I was putting into my body by journaling and how it affected my daily life. I never felt as though I was on a diet; and I didn’t crave all the unhealthy foods that I used to live on. I quickly began seeing results and in the year that I have been working with Lynne I have lost 40 pounds and my cholesterol went down from 267 to 183 and my Vitamin D went up from a very low level of 26 to 59!! Going in for my weigh in’s has always been a positive experience, there have been ups and downs and there is not always a loss of weight when I get on the scale. Yet Lynne is always there to talk me through it and to help me get myself back on track. Lynne has helped me to see that I do not need to deprive myself of foods that I enjoy; I still eat chips or ice cream and found that they are foods I don’t crave often anymore! Know It All Nutrition has helped me to change my life for the better and I will forever be thankful for the guidance Lynne has given me!”

“From my first visit, Lisa has been extremely informative and beneficial for me.  She has made a lot of useful suggestions that fit into my daily life.  Lisa is always friendly and I feel comfortable talking to her about my dietary concerns.  I think anyone could benefit greatly from nutritional counseling from Lisa.”

Lisa M., Marlton, NJ

“Before I met Lynne Nugent at Know It All Nutrition I was seriously concerned about living for another year.  I was overweight and my cholesterol and blood pressure were high. I had already experienced one heart attack and was frankly scared.  I decided it was time to change my life and fortunately started to consult with Lynne.  I started one to one nutrition counseling sessions centered on teaching me nutrition basics and quickly learned how easy healthy eating can be. Some of the most important tools that have lead to my success are how to journal my intake, meal planning and taking ownership of my actions. As I progressed Lynne helped me set goals and advised me on how to integrate proper exercise into my program.  Throughout it all we have had weekly or biweekly meetings to measure my progress. Lynne has been a positive mentor and coach. I am so pleased with the results that I am continuing as I feel I need the accountability of the visits. If I slip she is there to get me back on track. Now, when I see my primary physician, my blood work is near perfect, I have energy and a better mental outlook on life!  I may never be skinny, but I am headed in the right direction.  So far I am down 22 pounds and most importantly I am no longer gaining weight and struggling. I truly feel this program with Lynne helped me save my life.”

“Dear Lisa:

George and I wanted to thank you for your help in getting us on the right track for losing weight and understanding how to do it the healthy way.  Before coming to you we were fad dieters.  I have been to many other weight loss programs, but always gained the weight back.  Now, after meeting with you, and keeping a food journal, which I liked, but George not so much, we realize how to lose weight the healthy way.  We go out quite a bit and with your help and guidance, we now make better choices. We have kept off the weight for a few months now and with the tools that youhave given us, we will keep losing weight.  I look forward to the holidays this year because I will be healthier and able to enjoy our 7 grandchildren when we go on vacation in the Poconos for New Year’s Eve.”

“I have worked with Lynne Nugent, RDN for a number of years to achieve my weight loss goals.  More important than losing the weight, Lynne has helped me develop a plan to maintain my loss, stay accountable and focus on making healthy lifestyle choices that impact my overall well being. After losing a great deal of weight with Lynne, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and put on medications which lead to weight regain. I wanted to prevent reoccurrence and have continued working with Lynne to optimize my health and nutrition.
Lynne is a true professional. She is extremely compassionate and knowledgeable in her field. I highly recommend Know It All Nutrition for anyone that wants to stop dieting and begin living a healthier life.”

Debbie A., Marlton, NJ

“I came to Lisa because I wanted to lose body fat and have a healthy relationship with food.  I love food, and I didn’t want to have to give up going out to eat or baking because I was on a “diet.”  I needed a plan that I could stick with for the rest of my life.

Anyone can crash diet.  Drinking shakes and cutting out major food groups can help you lose weight, but can you do that forever?  I can’t.  Eventually all crash diets have led me down the same road…weight gain and guilt.

Working with Lisa allowed me to eat the foods I LOVE, but also achieve MY goals.  Eating was no longer a struggle.  I had a system and a plan.  With the new plan I wasn’t starving, I didn’t crave sweets after every meal, and I still could enjoy my favorite foods.

Lisa empowered me.  She provided me with knowledge and encouragement.  In 44 days I lost 4% body fat and no longer stressed out about food. If you are looking for an eating plan that you can sustain, helps you lose weight, and still enjoy your favorite foods, the dietitians at Know it All Nutrition are for you!”

Julia T., Delran, NJ

“I highly recommend nutrition counseling with Lynne Nugent, especially for those who like me have heart issues. Lynne has helped me lower my weight as well as my cholesterol through proper nutrition. My energy level and overall well being have increased as well. She is a very personable professional who is encouraging and understands the difficulty in weight reduction. Through her I have learned the value of proper daily nutrition and I am very much aware now of the nutritional value in the foods that I eat so that I can continue to make good choices. She has worked with me to improve my eating lifestyle for the better and I am very grateful. I feel that if I had this type of nutrition education/intervention much earlier in my life I could have prevented many of my current health issues. It is a priceless service!”

Sincerely, Bobbie V., Voorhees, NJ

“Lisa brings in-depth expertise, empathy, and a genuine appreciation for the day-to-day challenges of the real world!  She does a fantastic job of assessing what I need during our sessions to keep me motivated and on track (it can range from tough love to compassion!)  Since I haven’t been able to accomplish this on my own, I am so glad I found Lisa to help guide me to a healthier, happier place.”

Helen D., Haddonfield, NJ

“When I first heard about Lynne I was so desperate to lose weight. My knees hurt, I had heartburn and was just unhappy with myself and how I looked in the mirror. Well, that was 7 years and 43 pounds ago. Talk about an eye opening education on nutrition! Lynne’s expertise and friendly approach not only benefitted me, but also my entire family. I have to say that a couple of girlfriends who were amazed at watching my transformation were so excited at the potential for themselves that they also started with her. We had all failed with the usual diets and large meeting center venues. I could finally stop using the word “diet”. This is a tailor-made comprehensive ‘back to basics’ revelation to healthy eating. Who knew? For me, my success came as a result of my one-on-one interaction with Lynne in the privacy of her office. Right now I’m in the ‘maintenance’ phase and always will be. No more up and down on the scale for me! Do yourself a favor and visit with Lynne – you deserve it!”

“I began seeing Lisa Staas-Houser a few months ago after I was diagnosed with diabetes, obesity and high cholesterol.  Lisa is an outstanding dietitian and nutritionist; she is knowledgeable and professional, as well as friendly and engaging.  Lisa takes a holistic treatment approach with her clients; she incorporates the mind-body connection into an individualized plan that works best for you.  She is very positive and encouraging too!    Lisa is also working with my teenage daughter to help her make healthier food choices.  I am very happy with my experience at Know It All Nutrition and would highly recommend Lisa to anyone who needs nutritional health counseling.”
