Nadia Solberg

Registered Nutrition Educator & Weight-Loss Writer

About Nadia Solberg

Nadia specializes in sustainable weight loss and metabolic health basics. Her writing avoids extremes and focuses on repeatable habits: meals that satisfy, routines that stick, and progress that doesn't depend on perfection.

Core principles

  • Prioritize satiety: protein, fiber, and volume
  • Design defaults: make the healthy choice the easy choice
  • Track what matters (and ignore what doesn't)
The best plan is the one you can repeat on your busiest week—not your best week.

Credentials & experience

Nadia has worked in nutrition education programs supporting behavior change, meal planning, and long-term adherence. She is known for translating complex nutrition topics into clear, non-judgmental guidance.

Reader outcomes she prioritizes

  1. More stable energy and fewer cravings
  2. A simple weekly plan you can execute
  3. Confidence in building meals without rigid rules

What you'll see in her articles

  • Weekly meal templates (not strict meal plans)
  • Protein-forward snack and breakfast ideas
  • Travel and restaurant strategies
