My name is Joshua George, I was born in Philadelphia & raised in South Jersey where we are raising my amazing 8 year old daughter. In high school, I attended a vocational school for Culinary Arts and received a Bachelor's degree in Culinary Nutrition from Johnson & Wales University before going to graduate school at Immaculata University and becoming a Registered Dietitian in 2010.
I have worked in restaurants since I was 15 years old including working at a restaurant in Montecchio Precalcino, Italy; personal chef for a family in Cape Cod, Massachusetts; developing recipes for low fat & low glycemic index foods used in research studies for childhood obesity at Children’s Hospital in Boston; and various styles of restaurants sprinkled in between. I also owned a medical meal prep business for 4 years for individuals on diabetic, cardiac, & bariatric diets as well as for general weight loss, developing & producing new menus for breakfast, lunch, & dinner as well as snacks on a weekly basis.
In health care, I worked as a Registered Dietitian at various hospitals and long term care/short term rehab facilities as well as for a bariatric & metabolic surgery center and at various doctors offices. I have also worked as a Director of Food Service and as a Clinical Nutrition Manager in various hospitals & long term care facilities.
I’m passionate about helping others & being a part of their progress towards reaching their short & long term goals through education, motivation, coaching, and holding individuals accountable. Also passionate about the Philadelphia Eagles, Phillies, Flyers, & 76ers. I love to cook and teach individuals the basics of cooking as well as teaching more advanced techniques.
You can expect me to be positive, energetic, empathetic, as well as challenging during our sessions to get you to where you want to be. We will set small achievable goals and collaborate on road maps to achieve long term goals and maintain success. I look forward to working with you and being a part of your progress.
