Background

Hi, I’m Carla Escribano, a passionate Registered Dietitian specializing in endocrine health and weight management. When you work with me, you’ll receive science-backed, personalized nutrition guidance that goes beyond meal plans. My approach focuses on practical, sustainable changes that fit your lifestyle, helping you achieve long-term success. I specialize in endocrine health, including hormonal imbalances, PCOS, and premature menopause, as well as weight management and metabolism support. I understand that weight loss isn’t just about calories—it’s about hormones, metabolism, and finding a balanced approach that works for your body. Whether you’re struggling with stubborn weight gain, metabolic resistance, or yo-yo dieting, I help clients break free from restrictive cycles and build a healthy, sustainable relationship with food.

For those using GLP-1 medications for weight loss, I provide specialized guidance to help maintain a healthy eating pattern, prevent muscle loss, and avoid the common rebound weight gain once stopping the medication. My approach focuses on optimizing protein intake, strength preservation, and long-term metabolic health so that results are not only achieved but also sustained. GLP-1s can be a great tool, but nutrition and lifestyle adjustments are essential for maximizing benefits and preventing setbacks.

My journey overcoming premature menopause and hormonal imbalances led me to this field, and I’m committed to helping others take control of their health. I hold a Doctorate in Education and have received recognition for my leadership and contributions to the field of nutrition, including the School Nutrition Food Service Director of the Year award and the Achieva Employee Excellence Award. As a bilingual dietitian, I deeply value the connection between culture and nutrition. When I’m not working with clients, I love spending time with my daughter, exploring new foods, and advocating for better nutrition education. Nutrition changed my life, and my mission is to make it accessible, balanced, and effective for everyone.
