"In the last few years, the eating out/entertaining demands of my job have caused my weight to fluctuate. In my quest to lose weight, I was looking for someone who would be able to cater a healthy and balanced plan to my busy lifestyle. Alyse Levine provided me with just that. Her philosophy towards food is not that of a quick fix/fad diet but more so a lifestyle change. She analyzed my eating habits and catered a plan to my food preferences and busy schedule. No food is off limit and I never feel deprived. We set realistic goals which, through her support and encouragement, I have been able to reach. She has given me a strong understanding of healthy eating and has provided me with the toolsets of adapting my plan to all situations. All and all, the plan is very manageable and convenient. In the 8 weeks that I have been with Alyse, I have lost a little over 16 pounds and am well on my way to my ultimate goal. In addition to the weight loss, my skin and hair are healthier and my energy level much higher. I highly recommend Alyse to anyone who is looking to lose weight and maintain an overall healthy lifestyle." JULIA

"Alyse really knows nutrition. I'm a pretty healthy eater and usually go into a meeting with nutritionist feeling like they can't tell me anything I don't already know. I wasn't looking to lose weight, I just wanted to maintain and find new products as my current meal plan was getting boring. Alyse suggested many products I'd never tried that were nutritious as well as edible! In addition, she gave me ideas for what to eat when eating out (so that I didn't have to always have a salad). I feel better than I have in years and would strongly recommend NutritionBite to people with all types of nutritional needs!!" STEPHANIE

"I am currently working with Alyse on my off season sports nutrition. She is very knowledgeable on the mind and hunger levels of athletes. She truely tests and reviews your personal daily nutrition to accurately produce a sound meal plan that leaves you feeling full and satisfied while keeping off the unwanted pounds while taking a break from heavy training levels. Thanks Alyse!" SARAH

"Alyse is the best! I have been to other nutritionists here in LA that refused to let me eat certain "categories" of foods, and I have been on other "lifestyle" diets, but Alyse re-taught me how to look at food for what it does FOR me not TO me (carbs have a purpose!) . To treat each meal as its own special time and not look at the day as a whole (if I eat this now, what will I be allowed to eat later). Now breakfast is just breakfast, lunch is lunch and I can think about dinner when it is dinners turn. It is the first time I have ever had such a healthy relationship with food - in fact, it is so healthy I rarely think about it anymore! Alyse is so wonderful to work with that I too drive 45 minutes each way just to see her! Thank you Alyse!!!" SHANNON

"Alyse, at NutritionBite, is great. She is thorough in her understanding of your specific lifestyle issues that keep you from reaching your nutritional and fitness goals. She not only asks you what you eating and when, but why. She helps you determine your specific goals, and not just the fluffy stuff like I want to fit into this or that, but the goals that lead to a lifetime of success. She then creates a tailored personal plan that helps you deal with the specific issues that keep you from your goals. She tracks what you are doing and gives very helpful feedback without any guilt when you haven't followed through on something as planned. She is very uplifting and gently reminds you of your goals. She helps keep you on track by asking questions and giving suggestions. I always feel better about my situation after my visits with her. I highly recommend her - even if her location is out of your way. I travel 45 minutes to see her regularly and she is worth every mile and dollar!!" CHRISTINA

"I started seeing Alyse a few months ago and have really started seeing the results I've wanted for years. After trying countless diets and a few other nutritionists in LA, I am so thankful I found Alyse. She's incredibly supportive and really listens to what I'm saying. She's taught me to rethink my perception of food and how to eat healthfully and has provided great tips for grocery shopping, travel and social events. The scale continues to trend downward, and I feel more confident and healthy than ever. Thank you!!" MARNIE

"After months of debating which nutritionist to choose, I finally chose Alyse out of the hundreds that are out there in LA. Alyse is personable and highly detailed in her work. She goes over your whole history and chooses the right plan of action for you. She creates personalized menus, knows exactly what the client could eat and where to get food based on the client's preferences. She teaches you not only what to eat, but also delves deeper into ones emotions in order to understand your eating habits. Not only did my eating habits improve, but so did my thinking patterns regarding my life, and the stressors surrounding me. Alyse helped me gain control of my eating, my body, and my life. I feel more in control and confident than ever. Alyse doesn't put you on a "diet." She provides you with the knowledge and the tools to eating right based on your individual needs and your lifestyle. Diets come and go, but knowledge stays." AZADEH

"Being overweight has been a life-long battle. With other weight-loss programs I was one of so many and felt I could skate through. Wonder why they didn't work! But working with Alyse, I've lost over 20lbs and I'm confident I'm going to reach my goal. She's patient, a good listener. Never berates me and is so encouraging. Yet she doesn't let me get away with anything. She really bends over backwards to accommodate my insane schedule. And is genuinely interested in how my life is changing and more importantly, what's going on in my head that affects the choices I make. Her support has literally changed my life. And it's been working with her one on one that has been the key to progress in this area of my life. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to address any nutrition-based health issues. She's terrific." CORRIE

"I first visited Alyse after a bad experience with a "holistic" nutritionist. While that may be your style, it certainly was not mine! I was looking for someone to work with me and my likes/dislikes/needs/etc. and to hold me accountable. Alyse provides me with an easy "outline" for my daily food and its so simple! I never feel deprived and after 5 months I see drastic changes in the way I eat that I know will last me long term. Also, Alyse's website is a great a source of information that I can always use as a reference during the week and if I have a question, she is always easily accessible. If you are looking for a nutritionist, I recommend you give her a try! She's the best!" KAREN

"I had never gone to see a nutritionist before. However, after getting stuck on every other diet I had tried, I did my research and found Alyse. It was the best decision I have made! She listened to what I was looking for and what my goals were. She gave me what I needed...a straight forward plan that fit my likes and dislikes and so far I have lost 20 pounds! I certainly have run up against roadblocks, but she has never made me feel bad...just offered up new solutions. I would highly recommend her to anybody that is tired of dieting and is ready to change their life." AMY

"I have worked with Alyse for over 3 years now and have never felt better or been happier with the results. Before I worked with Alyse on my nutritional intake, I was 22 lbs overweight, chronically constipated (I know, gross!), and very inactive. She diagnosed the cause of my constipation and taught me to re-think my eating habits from A-Z. Today, I have lost the weight, am using the bathroom regularly, and have even found joy in exercising. My favorite part about working with Alyse is she REALLY listens to me, and then we work together to design an eating plan I can live with-- no crazy carb-less meals or elimination of my favorite foods. Her amazingly sunny disposition will get you through the tough times too!" MARNI

"I had 8 months to lose weight before my much anticipated wedding. After struggling with many of the fad diets on the market, I decided it was time to meet with a nutritionist! After doing tons of research, I found Alyse Levine, at NutritionBite. All I can say is Thank God! Her expectations were completely realistic, and for the first time, I finally found someone who really listened! I kept food logs for her, and even emailed her in-between sessions if I was struggling, or had any questions. I actually looked forward to our time together! I learned the "right" ways to eat, and how to look for the correct foods to buy at the store. She helped me incorporate my love for sweets and carbs, AND STILL LOSE WEIGHT!!!! Even when I saw a rise on the scale, (realistically this happens) she always knew the right things to say to put me at ease. Alyse is such a pleasure to work with! Her calm, laidback demeanor makes it so easy to open up! I must have recommended at least 15 people to her, after they saw how much weight I had lost! They all rave about NutritionBite! I live in Manhattan, but Alyse is now located in LA.. After much debate, and much anxiety with her departure, I decided to still work with Alyse via phone conversation and email! It has now been 1 full year working with Alyse, and I still learn something new each and every time we connect! Alyse- Thank you for all of your continued support and guidance! :)" MELISSA

"My experience with Alyse has been phenomenal. My life has changed positively since I first consulted with her. She creates healthy and realistic eating plans to suit your needs and lifestyle and makes it so easy where you do not feel like you are on a permanent diet. Alyse is very smart, extremely personable and I felt absolutely comfortable with her from our first meeting. I highly recommend her to anyone who is interested in eating healthy for the rest of their lives." LISA

"Alyse is a true professional. She is extremely knowledgeable about diet and nutrition. She works with you to achieve your goals in a realistic manner. She offers great diet suggestions and encouragement to stay with your program. In addition, she is a delightful person and extremely likeable." EVA

"Alyse is fantastic - I work and travel a lot and often eat on the go or at odd times - I needed clear direction (but with flexibility!) to fit my unique schedule and Alyse created a targeted plan that works for me using foods that I like. She gives lots of choices so you never feel like you are on a rigid plan. One amazing characteristic that I doubt you can get anywhere else is Alyse's attention to your needs and questions on an as need basis - she is available for questions at any time - and always gives thorough and researched answers. Alyse's personalization, her ability to work around specific needs, likes and dislikes make her an extraordinary nutritionist - and one who can really get you on the right track." JESSICA

"Alyse's friendly, no-nonsense style helped me get my act together and lose weight-- healthfully. She definitely tailors her approach which was important for me. She is responsive and very knowledgeable. I was always impressed with her level of preparation for each of our sessions. I would recommend her to anyone serious about learning how to eat smartly." GARY

"My experiences working with Alyse were fantastic. She created a plan for me that was completely individualized to my needs and preferences and she taught me how to eat well without depriving myself. I was able to easily lose weight and reach my goals without feeling like I was on a diet. Alyse is wonderful to work with and extremely knowledgeable. I would recommend her to anyone." ANA

"I used to be 20 pounds overweight and had to be dragged to see Alyse by my girlfriend. Alyse has turned my life around. Her style is incredibly straightforward, intelligent and comfortable. In addition to truly caring about her clients, she went to an Ivy League school and has an RD from a top East Coast graduate program--she knows what she is doing. She doesn't believe in "quick fixes" or faddish diets, but worked hard to create a program that fit my specific needs (ie. I need to be able to eat a sweet snack late night. I know, it's a problem)."
