I worked with Angela for one month. My goal was/is to reduce pain. Angela has helped me clean up my diet and remove all of the sources of gluten and dairy that cause inflammation. I feel much better now. I have less pain and I am sleeping better. Thank you!

I’ve noticed a HUGE difference in how I feel and how I’m eating. For the first time in my life I feel like I’m the one controlling the food I eat rather than the food controlling me. I’m also feeling awake and energized in the morning and find that I’m drinking less coffee.
Thanks!!!!

I’ve only worked with Angela for a few months and during that time she has helped me to understand how carbs work (and don’t work) for healthy eating. It’s been hard to give up a lifetime of unhealthy eating habits and try to put new ones in place. I’m almost halfway to my goal weight and reaching out now to increase my activity level purposefully!
I highly recommend Angela to anyone desiring or having to make changes in their eating habits as she is encouraging, knowledgeable and never condescending or judgmental. One could not ask for a better guide!

After two weeks of sticking pretty strong to the new plan, my IBS has improved (noticeably) – so thank you! The daily urgency is definitely decreased. Thank you so much for the advice – it’s really the first time in 15 years that I’ve noticed any substantial difference, so I am definitely grateful!

I’ve struggled for years with developing healthy habits. Each time I would feel like I was making some headway, life would take back over and I’d be right back to square one. Working with Angela has given me the knowledge and support necessary to make dramatic and lasting changes in my lifestyle. I feel better and more confident about my health, body and overall approach to nutrition as it touches all aspects of my life. I would recommend Angela for anyone who is trying to make a healthy change for the better.

In one week, you gave me the knowledge I need to make the life changes I need. I have more energy, have lost 4lbs over the last two weeks and definitely feel a difference in how my clothes feel. I have to laugh, I have had 3 people ask me if I have found the fountain of youth – no joke.
I still have a lot of work to do in regards to getting in the habit of meal planning but the tools you gave me are a great start. Thank you again – you are awesome. I have told several people about my experience.

Since I’ve been working with Angela, I’ve seen a huge difference in the way I think about food. I’ve been working with a fitness trainer for over 3 years, and though I feel much more fit than when I began, I didn’t see a huge shift in my weight. I knew I had to address my eating habits. Angela’s suggestions are realistic and I haven’t felt deprived of things that I like to eat. She is encouraging every step of the way. I can’t say enough about how much she has helped me.

Last November I decided to tackle my weight issue head-on and researched nutritionists, diet doctors, personal trainers, life coaches (you name it) until I found someone whose philosophy resonated with me. Angela puts the emphasis on health which has consequently helped me focus my efforts and given me a sense of accomplishment each week even when the scale didn’t move as much as I had hoped! Close to 30 pounds lighter I’m healthier and happier than I have ever been.

I was hesitant to work with a nutritionist. I am such a picky eater and I thought I wouldn’t be able to eat the foods that they suggested. I am SO happy to have found Angela! She created a plan that includes quick, convenient healthy foods and healthy foods that I can cook. She also helped me figure out the best resources and restaurants in my area. I’m able to eat well even when I’m too busy to think much about it. She’s always responsive to my questions and follow-up call and she’s so wonderfully friendly. I am recommending her to all of my friends.

I lost 50 pounds working with Angela!! For the first time in a long time, I am confident that I will keep this weight off. My take home message is that, ‘it isn’t all about food.’ My on again off again past dieting always led me back to old habits and weight gain. I’d focus on cutting calories and lose weight, but I wouldn’t address my happiness, stress, sleep, activity AND food. Angela helped me create a healthier lifestyle and that weight loss is a side effect of this lifestyle. I thought I needed to count calories for the rest of my life. I am amazed everyday at how I feel and what I’m able to accomplish. My work with Angela made my new, healthy, thinner life possible!

I thought I knew what to do and how to eat to lose weight. I learned that I knew too many ideas to put an effective plan in place. When I first met with her, I told her up front that I like to eat out. With Angie’s knowledge of this area, each time I’d mention a favorite restaurant she could tell me the healthiest choice to order. She even reviewed my favorite take out menus and highlighted her recommendations! She was always available to answer questions, and responded to my many emails – with such quickness, that I am sure that there is two of her.

If diets worked, I’d have been svelte back in 2002.
I started working with Angela in Jan 2010, and remain grateful each day for what I learned from her. Her approach is holistic, practical, focused on results, and the learning process continues to unfold for me two years later.
After working with Angela and still having problems losing weight, she referred me to an excellent metabolic specialist. If not for the work with Angela, I’m convinced that I’d have been diagnosed with Type II diabetes before now. Fortunately, because of her skill and access to excellent resources, I have a solid shot at preventing diabetes, I have more energy than I’ve had in years, and I enjoy what I eat

Calling Angela was one of the best decisions that I have ever made. Thanks to her (and a lot of hard work at the gym), in a matter of months, I lost 75 pounds,…and I didn’t starve myself. As I lost the weight, I worked with Angela to adjust my diet… and she made sure that I was including foods that I really enjoy. And for a 35 year-old guy, I look better than ever, and I feel better than ever. And to top it off, I really enjoy cooking and eating again (Now I know how to eat!)

My 4 basic food groups are cookies, cake, ice cream and candy. So, if Angela can help me lose weight, and I’ve lost 33 lbs and halfway to my goal in just over 4 months, she can help anyone. She’s encouraging, extremely patient and understanding. And just as important as losing the weight, Angela has taught me how to eat properly, in moderation, and still be able to enjoy the foods I love.
If you’re heavy… And, you know who you are… You owe it to yourself to go see her.

I debated going to a nutritionist for a very long time. The thought of discussing my weight issues has always made me feel uncomfortable. I finally decided to give it a try after a good friend recommended Angela.
Over the past several months I’ve found her to be extremely knowledgeable and she’s managed to teach me a lot about nutrition. I finally feel empowered to take control of my weight. Angela deserves a 5 star rating because she helped me change my life for the better. She has been extremely supportive and makes our sessions very worthwhile. She’s always made me feel very comfortable about discussing my eating habits and I’ve never felt like she was judging me. If you’re serious about getting help with your weight you will never find someone better than Angela. She’s truly the best. I’m down 40 lbs. and I plan on losing more with her help.

Angela changed my life one mindful meal at a time, by helping transform my general views toward food and what it means to be healthy. I came to Angela because I felt like I had lost my way with food and was tired of trying to figure out my own (incorrect) path. I was skeptical at first, but that quickly changed when I realized how easy Angela made it to stick with meaningful and realistic goals and expectations. After each session, we tried to set up goals that were important for me, and reflected challenges that I expected to encounter in the weeks to come (i.e. – the holiday season or vacations). Knowing that the control to succeed was solely in my hands made each challenge that much easier to succeed.

I’ve been working with Angela for about 8 months. She is fantastic since you helps you change your eating habits instead of putting you on a diet. I lost the weight I wanted to lose and now I am just maintaining my new weight. Angela teaches you a way of eating and enjoying food without being on a restrictive diet. This is the right way to control your eating and your weight.

Angela is just what I was looking for in a nutritionist……I needed an approach that would teach me how to eat, not to diet so I could simply get to an ideal weight, only to have it fail……AGAIN. She has left no stone unturned and continues to provide meaningful and realistic goals each week. If you are looking for a radical but very practical view of food and diets and what is actually healthy, Angela is the only person I would ever suggest.

I first saw Angela after having my son. I had tried for a year to drop my pregnancy weight without much success. I had a solid understanding of nutrition and worked out regularly but I have to say after 40 years Angela changed my perspective about food entirely. Unlike so many fad diets and rigid food plans, Angela allows her clients to eat real food without over thinking it. No item is taboo, she is completely open and she’s an excellent partner. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Angela was not the first nutritionist I had tried working with so I was quite skeptical when I got started with her. Looking back, I cannot believe how much my life has changed due to her guidance and support. I believe I have lost nearly 30 pounds and to be honest, it was the easiest time I have ever had losing weight. We made small tweaks to my favorite meals, adjusted the times of day I was eating, and optimized my workouts. With her expertise, in some ways I am eating more and exercising less (a.k.a. more effectively) and it has really paid off. I have a NEW ME!

This review is written by someone who has extreme difficulty with food. I’ve battled my weight for a long time and I’m still having problem. Seeing Angela is like going to school and learning tips from a caring teacher. It’s not a diet. She will not put you on a diet. So, if you’re someone who is looking for a “quick fix”…then, you’re not ready for Angela. You really need to be committed to make a life-long change in your food intake.
Angela will give you tools and teach you life-long lessons about nutrition. She will be there every step of the way and provide you with additional tips to help you. You will literally learn how to eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You will learn what makes good choices and what makes bad choices. You will learn how to snack healthily. It isn’t easy to do (if you’re like me and come with 20 years of bad baggage) but it is worth the commitment.
She caters to your specific needs – this is not a “one size fits all” plan…she really looks at what you eat and analyzes what is best for you. It is amazing, simply put. I mean, I drive at least two hours round trip just to see her…would I do it if she wasn’t worth it?

If you are sick of dieting and having your weight yo-yo every month… go to Angela. She literally made losing weight effortless. I don’t even think about it anymore- its so easy and I feel healthy. I used to do 5 spin classes a week and still not lose pounds… after my first visit with her, i was already losing about a pound a week. She is very smart and always works with me and my picky eating habits. I recommend her to anyone looking to make a positive difference in their life and get off the “diet wagon” for once and all. This is just knowledge and a simple way of life that will affect you all around.

My biggest regret is not going to Angela sooner. Last year I reached my all time heaviest. I spent hundreds of dollars a month doing food delivery services and taking exercise classes. I was only able to lose about 5 pounds, I realized I needed help.
For the first time in my life, I finally have control over food. Angela helped me figure out food options that worked with my busy lifestyle. I am still able to eat out and enjoy food without an impact on my waistline. In less than 3 months working with Angela I was able to lose over 28 pounds and I have honestly never felt better! Do this for yourself and visit Angela. You can spend years doing crash diets and workout fads but she will help you change your life in a way that you can maintain a healthy, beautiful body weight. I really can’t say enough about what she taught me and how thankful I am that I found her when I did.

Your advice is WONDERFUL! I just wanted to check in and let you know that, brief as our time was together, I have followed your suggestions. The plan is extremely “life friendly”! I have already lost 10 pounds, and my husband has lost 7 or 8! We are both delighted that it is possible to enjoy life, not feel deprived in any way, and still lose weight. Of course the other benefits are coming along naturally, lower blood pressures, more energy, better sleep and happier moods.

I came to Angela after reaching my highest weight in 5 years. After trying by myself to watch what I was eating, counting calories and exercising about an hour a day, and not seeing results, I was at my wits-end. I had lost weight before, but gained it all back, and I needed a solution that worked. I figured I should try a nutritionist. After seeing all of Angela’s reviews, I thought that she was the best in Seattle. At my initial consultation, I was nervous, but Angela talked with me for over an hour and a half. I knew after that I was in good hands. The first week, I lost three pounds, the second week I lost two pounds, the third week I lost a two and a half pounds and the scale kept going down. None of the directions she gave me left me feeling hungry, and they were all quite simple and direct. In fact, I eat more now than I did before, and work out less. After four months, I’ve lost 18% of my body weight, and am 2lbs away from my goal. Before Angela, I truly didn’t think this was possible. The best part is that unlike some “diets,” these are changes I can maintain the rest of my life, and I can still eat pizza! I truly recommend Angela to everyone who is struggling with weight loss because I’m not sure where I would be without her. Trust the reviews you see, she is as good as everyone says!

I have lose 35 pound and I am down four dress sizes and almost to my goal weight (17 more pounds to go). The cool thing is that I don’t feel like I am eating on a plan. I simply eat and this has become a way of life for me. I still get to have some fun (never thought I’d hear my nutritionist say, “Go have more fun…you have to have dessert from time to time!” Angela is bright light in the world of gimmicks and fad diets.

I went to Angela to get back on track. I had lost weight in the past but it kept coming back on. I wanted to be at a healthy weight and have healthy habits in place in order to start planning for a family. Angela offered easy to follow advice as well as motivation and inspiration. I looked forward to our weekly calls – just like looking forward to a call from a friend (though I knew I would get sound advice!) I am down to the weight I was at when I lost weight before, and I feel like I can keep going even further! Plus I have the healthy habits in place like I had hoped. This is what happens when you go to a professional I guess (and give up all the gimmicky dieting phases)! What is great is that while I still do indulge from time to time, I am much more aware of it and I eat a lot less of the indulgence than I would have. Also because my diet is generally better balanced, it seems like the occasional dessert isn’t such a train wreck. All in all, if it’s something you’re considering, I say your time and money will be well spent!

My daughter reports that now she doesn’t feel angry all the time and is not always tired. She has lost a bit of weight and is eating so healthy! Angie really helped us to understand what was going on and how to make changes and heal without feeling deprived from things that my daughter loved to eat.

After years and years of uncontrollable hypoglycemia and inability to feel good enough to exercise, Angela assessed my eating habits and pointed out what was working and what needed to be changed. It wasn’t easy at first and took a little while to let go of old habits and learn new ways of eating but it worked; especially with Angela’s encouragement! Gone are the ups and downs of low blood sugar and energy. For the first time in my life I enjoy working out at the gym and the food anxiety is gone. Thanks to Angela’s support, patience and knowledge I feel healthy, energetic and present. I wish I had worked with Angela years ago.

I’ve worked with a few nutritionists in the past and I can honestly say that this was one of the best experiences I have had. I truly appreciate how detailed Angela is and that she addressed my specific concerns and needs. Her program is definitely not a canned product. In one month she addressed three specific health conditions and was able to help me lose 12 pounds. My blood sugars came into check within a week and a half and I have more energy than I ever remember having in the past. I am taking a short break over the holidays and then will pick up my time with Angela again in January. Like her other reviews, I can’t stop talking about my experience!

Outstanding Experience
I was referred to Angela by my doc a few months back. I didn’t want to go on medication, but I knew that I’ve had a tough time in the past sticking to a diet. I have been more than pleasantly surprised by how easy Angela has made this on me. I get to eat real food and have still kept a few of my vices – all while losing weight and seeing my numbers come back into line. I didn’t know eating healthier could be this easy and this effective. I always tried to do things too fast – too drastically. I’ve told everyone about my experience with Angela. Like her other referrals, my only wish is that I found her sooner. She is on top of things, extremely responsive, really listened to me and created a plan that I can follow forever.

Angela Made a Huge Difference in My Life!
I attended a workshop over the weekend which included several opportunities to pair up with a partner you didn’t know to talk about various subjects related to food. I talked to so many people who struggle with the ‘eat when you’re hungry’ and ‘eat what your body wants’ concepts — and I used to too – but not since my work with Angela Pifer.
Restriction and deprivation are no longer a way of life for me. I still work on these every day and don’t expect perfection, but am aware of the behavior. What I realize more than anything is that the way I live/eat now is a gift, so thank you to Angela! Not just a gift of health, but a gift of feeling free and not feeling guilty. Now I’m working to incorporate more conscious eating principles into my life, as well as being more aware and tapping into the issues beyond the food. As we all know, there is no magic bullet and new habits and patterns take time, so I’m working each day on new things that help me reach my goals. I just want to tell everyone what working with Angela meant to me – she made a difference in my life and I appreciate it very much.

Angela Helped Me!
I am a 49 year old woman who was treated this past year for Celiac- Sprue Disease. When I was looking for a nutritionist in Bellevue, Angela was my first choice for many reasons. I knew that I would need a certain level of support to help me address my health concerns and to help me stick with a new plan. Angela paid great attention to details. As I got to know Angela, I began to realize the depth of her knowledge about nutrition, diet, exercise, and disease prevention to name a few, was superior. She has a strong desire to find different ways to help patients, especially women, be healthier and to solve difficult health problems. As a registered nurse for almost 30 years myself, I am impressed with her drive to find holistic, healthy ways to help our bodies heal and to prevent further problems. A great many women would be thankful in years to come for what she can contribute to health care.

Angela is a one of a kind nutritionist!
I have been working with Angela for over 10 weeks and I cannot tell you how her program has changed my life. Angela is very knowledgeable and she is able to bring an individualized, one-on-one, element to weight management that is missing from other programs. I lost weight on my own before working with her but I had reached an impassable plateau. Once I began following my personal eating and lifestyle plan, I started seeing results. Not only have I been able to loose additional weight but I have developed lifestyle changes which will benefit me for the rest of my life. It is amazing how alert and energized I feel since beginning the program. Thank you Angela! I look forward to seeing you soon.

Great Nutritionist!
I highly recommend Angela. I have had on again, off again issues since I was a kid. She figured out my digestive issues and I have been symptom free for five months now! I am impressed with how much help I received. I called her on a Saturday to ask a question and she answered.

I highly recommend Angela!
I had the pleasure of meeting Angela this winter when I contacted her for nutrition and weight loss counseling. Throughout my lifetime, I have tried many different ways to lose weight and have always failed. With Angela’s program I learned how to understand the food I eat and how my body works with this food. Angela did not restrict my eating habits but showed me how to introduce healthier things into my life. Angela taught me which foods encourage a healthier lifestyle and healthier living. She also showed me how to increase my exercise so that my body would work more efficiently towards my goal. Through Angela’s program I stopped thinking about weight loss and began thinking that I was learning to change my life.

Five Star Nutritionist
Angela has changed my life. I wish my doctor had recommended that I see a nutritionist, but then I don’t know if he would have recommended that I see this specific nutritionist (I don’t feel I would have experienced this level of results with anyone else). I needed accountability, a structure that was realistic and that I could do long term. I weigh less now than I did before I had my kids. I have kept the weight off for 8 months now (longer than ever before) and I know that this time my success will be long term. I am calmer, off many of my medications and I have learned to believe in myself – truly trust myself and my choices again. After 30 years of emotional eating, I didn’t think that was possible. If you are ready – I HIGHLY recommend Angela.

Angela taught me how to eat and now I am teaching my family
Angela hasn’t just shown me how to eat, she has taught me how to eat. I get it. I used to think it was willpower and now I realize that I was just going about eating and exercise all wrong (she would say ‘some right and some that needs in improvement’). I felt like I was spining my wheels month after month. If only we were taught this at an early age. I’ve lost 17 pounds over the past two months. The best feeling is that my family is starting to eat healthier too. I had to visit my doctor to have my blood pressure and diabetes medications reduced. My long term goal is to come off of these completely…I am well on my way. Don’t wait another second, call Angela!

Truly Amazing Experience
I have cancer and was losing too much weight. My ND referred me to a nutritionist. My clothes were literally hanging off of me and my energy was in the dumps. Through my (daily!) work with Angela, we had my weight stabilized within a week, she worked within my lifestyle and appetite level (which has been nill, do to my treatment) and offered me plenty of fast, convenient, tasty and healthy options. I am really blown away by the amount of time and energy she put in to help me. This has allowed me to stop worrying about my weight and get back to living and enjoying my little girl. I HIGHLY recommend Angela Pifer!

Figured out and impossible Situation
I sent Angela a personal note thanking her for the extra amount of patience she had with me, then thought it a good idea to let everyone know how truly amazing she is. It was wonderful to have her to go to with all my questions. Her help and advice was invaluable. I now know how to eat! She did a great job putting together menus – considering I am gluten intolerant and allergic to dairy, eggs and other specific foods….being hypoglycemic didn’t help either. I know from experience that it is next to impossible to figure out how to eat healthy and balanced in my situation. But, she did it! I can’t say thank you enough!! I tried to figure this out on my own and just kept finding that my choices were becoming more and more restrictive. I wasn’t making any progress. Angela changed my life. Thank YOU!

Grateful for new eating principles
After 40 years of emotional eating I am finally feeling like I am in control and not the food. I have lost 5 pounds and 2 inches off my waist and I’m not even hungry! I give full credit to you and your principles. Thank you to Angela for coming into my life!

Angela Pifer from Nutrition Northwest is great!
I have spent a considerable amount of time with Angela understanding her business and how she runs it. I am very impressed with her level of knowledge, her ability to explain what she does and how to identify those that could benefit from her services. Based on that information and the consistency of her professionalism and integrity, I have recommended Angela to friends and family members and will continue to do so. Angela works with people that have problems and helps them recognize the problems and either manage or solve the problem. I am proud to know her and recommend her to others.

Best investment I could have made – my health
After diagnosed (with Type II diabetes) I felt helpless. I can?t believe that I was told I would be on medication for life and after working with you for two months, I was taken off my medication and my sugar levels are normal.

We are done dieting
Working with Angie has been life changing. Her program is what you do when you are done dieting.
It is a great feeling to not be so hung up on food. It is just absurd that the diet industry has brainwashed the public when the truth is so simple. I have to say though, I can’t remember overall feeling this good. I am noticing so many changes. And, to be honest, we (my husband & I) are actually having fun with all of this. It is challenging, but I think we are doing it in such a way that sets us up for long-term success.

So smart and professional!
Angie is a dream to work with: organized, thoughtful, and a true networker. She has big plans for making a positive contribution in this world, and with her connections and follow-through, she is going to do huge things. I have seen first-hand her ability to impact a life both directly and through a series of other connections. Angie’s generous spirit, high intelligence, and drive to make the world a better place make her someone definitely worth having on your team

Life Changing Weight Loss
My experience with Angela has been life changing. I have lost 102 pounds and counting. I had given up thinking that I would ever lose this weight. It has taken work on my part, but now I know what to eat and I get to make the choice to be good to myself everyday. Angela gave me the support and the kind ear that made this happen. I give her all the credit and she gives me all the credit; we are quite a pair.

Holistic approach is easy to understand and practical to implement!
Angela Pifer is a gifted nutritionist. Not only does she have a very thorough knowledge of food, nutrition and dietary restrictions, she can translate this knowledge into practical applications that help people implement her advice. She has a vast storehouse of resources at her fingertips including specific products for restricted diets and where to buy them, recipes and referral partners. Her instruction makes complex ideas easy to understand and includes a holistic approach to leading a healthy lifestyle that goes beyond basic nutrition.

Whether it is a small group setting or one on one, her ability to take the complex world of nutrition and human behavior and blend together a custom plan to help each of us achieve our personal health goals is a rare combination.

5I worked with Angela for one month. My goal was/is to reduce pain. Angela has helped me clean up my diet and remove all of the sources of gluten and dairy that cause inflammation. I feel much better now. I have less pain and I am sleeping better. Thank you!
Review by B.B., February 14, 2012-





5I’ve noticed a HUGE difference in how I feel and how I’m eating. For the first time in my life I feel like I’m the one controlling the food I eat rather than the food controlling me. I’m also feeling awake and energized in the morning and find that I’m drinking less coffee.
Thanks!!!!
Review by MW, January 31, 2012-





5I’ve only worked with Angela for a few months and during that time she has helped me to understand how carbs work (and don’t work) for healthy eating. It’s been hard to give up a lifetime of unhealthy eating habits and try to put new ones in place. I’m almost halfway to my goal weight and reaching out now to increase my activity level purposefully!
I highly recommend Angela to anyone desiring or having to make changes in their eating habits as she is encouraging, knowledgeable and never condescending or judgmental. One could not ask for a better guide!
Review by M.C., January 30, 2012-





5After two weeks of sticking pretty strong to the new plan, my IBS has improved (noticeably) – so thank you! The daily urgency is definitely decreased. Thank you so much for the advice – it’s really the first time in 15 years that I’ve noticed any substantial difference, so I am definitely grateful!

5I’ve struggled for years with developing healthy habits. Each time I would feel like I was making some headway, life would take back over and I’d be right back to square one. Working with Angela has given me the knowledge and support necessary to make dramatic and lasting changes in my lifestyle. I feel better and more confident about my health, body and overall approach to nutrition as it touches all aspects of my life. I would recommend Angela for anyone who is trying to make a healthy change for the better.
Review by Beth, January 26, 2012-





5In one week, you gave me the knowledge I need to make the life changes I need. I have more energy, have lost 4lbs over the last two weeks and definitely feel a difference in how my clothes feel. I have to laugh, I have had 3 people ask me if I have found the fountain of youth – no joke.
I still have a lot of work to do in regards to getting in the habit of meal planning but the tools you gave me are a great start. Thank you again – you are awesome. I have told several people about my experience.
Review by Jennie K., January 23, 2012-





5Since I’ve been working with Angela, I’ve seen a huge difference in the way I think about food. I’ve been working with a fitness trainer for over 3 years, and though I feel much more fit than when I began, I didn’t see a huge shift in my weight. I knew I had to address my eating habits. Angela’s suggestions are realistic and I haven’t felt deprived of things that I like to eat. She is encouraging every step of the way. I can’t say enough about how much she has helped me.
Review by Kelly B., January 22, 2012-





5Last November I decided to tackle my weight issue head-on and researched nutritionists, diet doctors, personal trainers, life coaches (you name it) until I found someone whose philosophy resonated with me. Angela puts the emphasis on health which has consequently helped me focus my efforts and given me a sense of accomplishment each week even when the scale didn’t move as much as I had hoped! Close to 30 pounds lighter I’m healthier and happier than I have ever been.
Review by Tina W., January 12, 2012-





5I was hesitant to work with a nutritionist. I am such a picky eater and I thought I wouldn’t be able to eat the foods that they suggested. I am SO happy to have found Angela! She created a plan that includes quick, convenient healthy foods and healthy foods that I can cook. She also helped me figure out the best resources and restaurants in my area. I’m able to eat well even when I’m too busy to think much about it. She’s always responsive to my questions and follow-up call and she’s so wonderfully friendly. I am recommending her to all of my friends.
Review by Brenda P., January 11, 2012-





5I lost 50 pounds working with Angela!! For the first time in a long time, I am confident that I will keep this weight off. My take home message is that, ‘it isn’t all about food.’ My on again off again past dieting always led me back to old habits and weight gain. I’d focus on cutting calories and lose weight, but I wouldn’t address my happiness, stress, sleep, activity AND food. Angela helped me create a healthier lifestyle and that weight loss is a side effect of this lifestyle. I thought I needed to count calories for the rest of my life. I am amazed everyday at how I feel and what I’m able to accomplish. My work with Angela made my new, healthy, thinner life possible!
Review by S.A., January 6, 2012-





5I thought I knew what to do and how to eat to lose weight. I learned that I knew too many ideas to put an effective plan in place. When I first met with her, I told her up front that I like to eat out. With Angie’s knowledge of this area, each time I’d mention a favorite restaurant she could tell me the healthiest choice to order. She even reviewed my favorite take out menus and highlighted her recommendations! She was always available to answer questions, and responded to my many emails – with such quickness, that I am sure that there is two of her.

5If diets worked, I’d have been svelte back in 2002.
I started working with Angela in Jan 2010, and remain grateful each day for what I learned from her. Her approach is holistic, practical, focused on results, and the learning process continues to unfold for me two years later.
After working with Angela and still having problems losing weight, she referred me to an excellent metabolic specialist. If not for the work with Angela, I’m convinced that I’d have been diagnosed with Type II diabetes before now. Fortunately, because of her skill and access to excellent resources, I have a solid shot at preventing diabetes, I have more energy than I’ve had in years, and I enjoy what I eat

5Calling Angela was one of the best decisions that I have ever made. Thanks to her (and a lot of hard work at the gym), in a matter of months, I lost 75 pounds,…and I didn’t starve myself. As I lost the weight, I worked with Angela to adjust my diet… and she made sure that I was including foods that I really enjoy. And for a 35 year-old guy, I look better than ever, and I feel better than ever. And to top it off, I really enjoy cooking and eating again (Now I know how to eat!)
Review by R. U., December 1, 2011-





5My 4 basic food groups are cookies, cake, ice cream and candy. So, if Angela can help me lose weight, and I’ve lost 33 lbs and halfway to my goal in just over 4 months, she can help anyone. She’s encouraging, extremely patient and understanding. And just as important as losing the weight, Angela has taught me how to eat properly, in moderation, and still be able to enjoy the foods I love.
If you’re heavy… And, you know who you are… You owe it to yourself to go see her.
Review by Charlene F., November 27, 2011-





5I debated going to a nutritionist for a very long time. The thought of discussing my weight issues has always made me feel uncomfortable. I finally decided to give it a try after a good friend recommended Angela.
Over the past several months I’ve found her to be extremely knowledgeable and she’s managed to teach me a lot about nutrition. I finally feel empowered to take control of my weight. Angela deserves a 5 star rating because she helped me change my life for the better. She has been extremely supportive and makes our sessions very worthwhile. She’s always made me feel very comfortable about discussing my eating habits and I’ve never felt like she was judging me. If you’re serious about getting help with your weight you will never find someone better than Angela. She’s truly the best. I’m down 40 lbs. and I plan on losing more with her help.
Review by Annie P., November 19, 2011-





5Angela changed my life one mindful meal at a time, by helping transform my general views toward food and what it means to be healthy. I came to Angela because I felt like I had lost my way with food and was tired of trying to figure out my own (incorrect) path. I was skeptical at first, but that quickly changed when I realized how easy Angela made it to stick with meaningful and realistic goals and expectations. After each session, we tried to set up goals that were important for me, and reflected challenges that I expected to encounter in the weeks to come (i.e. – the holiday season or vacations). Knowing that the control to succeed was solely in my hands made each challenge that much easier to succeed.
Review by Pauline T., November 11, 2011-





5I’ve been working with Angela for about 8 months. She is fantastic since you helps you change your eating habits instead of putting you on a diet. I lost the weight I wanted to lose and now I am just maintaining my new weight. Angela teaches you a way of eating and enjoying food without being on a restrictive diet. This is the right way to control your eating and your weight.
Review by Leslie E., November 5, 2011-





5Angela is just what I was looking for in a nutritionist……I needed an approach that would teach me how to eat, not to diet so I could simply get to an ideal weight, only to have it fail……AGAIN. She has left no stone unturned and continues to provide meaningful and realistic goals each week. If you are looking for a radical but very practical view of food and diets and what is actually healthy, Angela is the only person I would ever suggest.
Review by Marwa N., November 3, 2011-





5I first saw Angela after having my son. I had tried for a year to drop my pregnancy weight without much success. I had a solid understanding of nutrition and worked out regularly but I have to say after 40 years Angela changed my perspective about food entirely. Unlike so many fad diets and rigid food plans, Angela allows her clients to eat real food without over thinking it. No item is taboo, she is completely open and she’s an excellent partner. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Review by Trace M., October 20, 2011-





5I give Angela my highest recommendation! She is professional, thorough, and possesses a wealth of knowledge about nutrition. She offers structure and encouragement to help you achieve your goals and teaches you how to think about eating. Angela will explain how to integrate healthful eating into your personal lifestyle. If you follow Angela’s advice eating healthy will start to become second nature!
Review by N. T., October 13, 2011-





5Angela was honestly the first time that I felt I was making a permanent lifestyle change rather than a temporary diet. She is amazing and I truly felt so comfortable sharing everything I was worried about. I truly reccomend it for anyone not only trying to lose weight, but also trying to create and maintain a healthy lifestyle!…which INCLUDES sweets and treats we all know we can not live without! I truly learned how to eat to live and live to eat in a positive way!
Review by Katie, October 11, 2011-





5Angela was not the first nutritionist I had tried working with so I was quite skeptical when I got started with her. Looking back, I cannot believe how much my life has changed due to her guidance and support. I believe I have lost nearly 30 pounds and to be honest, it was the easiest time I have ever had losing weight. We made small tweaks to my favorite meals, adjusted the times of day I was eating, and optimized my workouts. With her expertise, in some ways I am eating more and exercising less (a.k.a. more effectively) and it has really paid off. I have a NEW ME!
Review by Jane S., October 8, 2011-





5This review is written by someone who has extreme difficulty with food. I’ve battled my weight for a long time and I’m still having problem. Seeing Angela is like going to school and learning tips from a caring teacher. It’s not a diet. She will not put you on a diet. So, if you’re someone who is looking for a “quick fix”…then, you’re not ready for Angela. You really need to be committed to make a life-long change in your food intake.
Angela will give you tools and teach you life-long lessons about nutrition. She will be there every step of the way and provide you with additional tips to help you. You will literally learn how to eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You will learn what makes good choices and what makes bad choices. You will learn how to snack healthily. It isn’t easy to do (if you’re like me and come with 20 years of bad baggage) but it is worth the commitment.
She caters to your specific needs – this is not a “one size fits all” plan…she really looks at what you eat and analyzes what is best for you. It is amazing, simply put. I mean, I drive at least two hours round trip just to see her…would I do it if she wasn’t worth it?
Review by Ashley S., October 3, 2011-





5Angela has been my nutritionist for over 6 months and I think she is great! She worked closely with me to create a nutrition plan that fit my needs and lifestyle. And in addition to our regular follows up, she was great about checking in or answering questions via email. I also love all the information available on her website.
If anyone is looking for a great nutritionist with lots of knowledge, I would definitely consider her.
Review by D. A., September 28, 2011-





5If you are sick of dieting and having your weight yo-yo every month… go to Angela. She literally made losing weight effortless. I don’t even think about it anymore- its so easy and I feel healthy. I used to do 5 spin classes a week and still not lose pounds… after my first visit with her, i was already losing about a pound a week. She is very smart and always works with me and my picky eating habits. I recommend her to anyone looking to make a positive difference in their life and get off the “diet wagon” for once and all. This is just knowledge and a simple way of life that will affect you all around.
Review by Debbie I., September 22, 2011-





5My biggest regret is not going to Angela sooner. Last year I reached my all time heaviest. I spent hundreds of dollars a month doing food delivery services and taking exercise classes. I was only able to lose about 5 pounds, I realized I needed help.
For the first time in my life, I finally have control over food. Angela helped me figure out food options that worked with my busy lifestyle. I am still able to eat out and enjoy food without an impact on my waistline. In less than 3 months working with Angela I was able to lose over 28 pounds and I have honestly never felt better! Do this for yourself and visit Angela. You can spend years doing crash diets and workout fads but she will help you change your life in a way that you can maintain a healthy, beautiful body weight. I really can’t say enough about what she taught me and how thankful I am that I found her when I did.
Review by Andrea L., September 8, 2011-





5Angela is so nurturing and supportive, and even when she was telling me how my current eating habits needed to change, she never made me feel bad about how I’d eaten. “Let’s move in a new direction….” For the first time in my life I feel like this is a new beginning for me.
Review by Janet S, August 20, 2011-





5I have had a wonderful experience with Angela. I have learned so much. Journaling, I found, was key. Learning about nutrition and how to pair carbs with protein and eating consistently have really helped me. Her advice for my problem triggers were so insightful. It is definitely a process, but with the tools she has given me, I am moving forward and making healthy changes. Thanks, Angela, for all the care, encouragement, and knowledge you have given me.

Review by Amy F., August 15, 2011-





5Your advice is WONDERFUL! I just wanted to check in and let you know that, brief as our time was together, I have followed your suggestions. The plan is extremely “life friendly”! I have already lost 10 pounds, and my husband has lost 7 or 8! We are both delighted that it is possible to enjoy life, not feel deprived in any way, and still lose weight. Of course the other benefits are coming along naturally, lower blood pressures, more energy, better sleep and happier moods.
Review by Teresa Johns, August 4, 2011-





5I came to Angela after reaching my highest weight in 5 years. After trying by myself to watch what I was eating, counting calories and exercising about an hour a day, and not seeing results, I was at my wits-end. I had lost weight before, but gained it all back, and I needed a solution that worked. I figured I should try a nutritionist. After seeing all of Angela’s reviews, I thought that she was the best in Seattle. At my initial consultation, I was nervous, but Angela talked with me for over an hour and a half. I knew after that I was in good hands. The first week, I lost three pounds, the second week I lost two pounds, the third week I lost a two and a half pounds and the scale kept going down. None of the directions she gave me left me feeling hungry, and they were all quite simple and direct. In fact, I eat more now than I did before, and work out less. After four months, I’ve lost 18% of my body weight, and am 2lbs away from my goal. Before Angela, I truly didn’t think this was possible. The best part is that unlike some “diets,” these are changes I can maintain the rest of my life, and I can still eat pizza! I truly recommend Angela to everyone who is struggling with weight loss because I’m not sure where I would be without her. Trust the reviews you see, she is as good as everyone says!
Review by Deanne Streusser, August 1, 2011-





5Just wanted to say thanks again for being a kick-ass nutritionist. This is the first time I have felt like I have an eating and exercise plan in place that is real life and not just something I have to do for the next couple of months to drop a few pounds.
Review by Kaylee T., July 28, 2011-





5I have never been able to stick with a ‘diet’ (dare I use that word?) for more than a month or two. Here I am six months out and still feeling like I am on-plan. I have lose 35 pound and I am down four dress sizes and almost to my goal weight (17 more pounds to go). The cool thing is that I don’t feel like I am eating on a plan. I simply eat and this has become a way of life for me. I still get to have some fun (never thought I’d hear my nutritionist say, “Go have more fun…you have to have dessert from time to time!” Angela is bright light in the world of gimmicks and fad diets. I am just so grateful that I decided to work with her….there are not even words to describe it!
Review by KT, July 17, 2011-





5I have to say that finding Angela and working with her is the best thing I have ever done for my health! She knows her stuff and explains why something is good or bad for you. I feel better and lost weight without hardly trying! Yes, I had to pay attention and write things down (on the computer) and be conscious about what I was eating, but it was totally different from anything I had done before. My friends and family tell me how great I look! And I love how much better I feel. Thanks, Angela, for getting me back on track!
Review by BobK, July 6, 2011-





5I came to Angela to establish a more nutritious diet to help lower cholesterol & weight. Her advice was good, instruction fun and simple to practice. Her regular monitoring of my Food Journal kept me on track. It was fun learning to eat for greater nutrition. I expect to get both down in the next six months and enjoy it. Thanks

5I went to Angela to get back on track. I had lost weight in the past but it kept coming back on. I wanted to be at a healthy weight and have healthy habits in place in order to start planning for a family. Angela offered easy to follow advice as well as motivation and inspiration. I looked forward to our weekly calls – just like looking forward to a call from a friend (though I knew I would get sound advice!) I am down to the weight I was at when I lost weight before, and I feel like I can keep going even further! Plus I have the healthy habits in place like I had hoped. This is what happens when you go to a professional I guess (and give up all the gimmicky dieting phases)! What is great is that while I still do indulge from time to time, I am much more aware of it and I eat a lot less of the indulgence than I would have. Also because my diet is generally better balanced, it seems like the occasional dessert isn’t such a train wreck. All in all, if it’s something you’re considering, I say your time and money will be well spent!

5I really enjoyed working with Angela. Angela was recommended to me because I have many health problems and also needed to gain weight. She diagnosed the problems with my diet very fast. She quickly organized what to eat and when, so that I could consume the appropriate amount of food and avoid blood sugar spikes. She responded to my questions and emails very quickly. She explained why I was feeling certain things and what I could do. She taught me how to continue to have healthier nutrition. I feel confident about proceeding and I feel very grateful to Angela.

5My 14 year old daughter and I worked very closely with Angela for almost 3 months now, to help heal an intestinal imbalance which was causing severe mood and attentional issues as well as an uncontrolled craving for carbs and weight gain. My daughter reports that now she doesn’t feel angry all the time and is not always tired. She has lost a bit of weight and is eating so healthy! Angie really helped us to understand what was going on and how to make changes and heal without feeling deprived from things that my daughter loved to eat. She was so incredibly supportive for all of us on a daily basis! My daughter even asked WHEN the next time we will be seeing her! I recommend Angie for ANYONE needing nutritional help and understanding! SHE is simply THE BEST!

5After yo-yo’ing on many of the fad diets out there I finally have the tools and knowledge to eat healthy for life. Angela assisted me in learning how to eat for insulin resistance and helped me lose 13 lbs in a month. The plan is so simple to follow and the support was amazing. I would recommend Angela to anyone looking to get off the fads and onto something real and sustainable.

5After years and years of uncontrollable hypoglycemia and inability to feel good enough to exercise, Angela assessed my eating habits and pointed out what was working and what needed to be changed. It wasn’t easy at first and took a little while to let go of old habits and learn new ways of eating but it worked; especially with Angela’s encouragement! Gone are the ups and downs of low blood sugar and energy. For the first time in my life I enjoy working out at the gym and the food anxiety is gone. Thanks to Angela’s support, patience and knowledge I feel healthy, energetic and present. I wish I had worked with Angela years ago.

5I tasted food for the first time!
I lost 10 lbs and my husband lost 30 lbs!
I correlated definitive ’cause-and-effect’ body reactions from eating/overeating different foods…physically and emotionally!
I felt GOOD!
My opinion is that you are providing a very helpful service and I am grateful!
Usually I have suggestions and advice, but you seem to be covering all the bases that I know of

5After meeting with Angela Pifer, I feel empowered to take control of my health and well-being. I was sure I would never be able to eat the foods I love and go out with my husband but she assured me I will still be able to live my life and not feel punished. I know I can do it !

5I have worked with Angela, and she taught me how to eat to lost weight. Good carbs vs. bad carbs – it is so confusing now a days with all of the wrong or mis information out there, Angela has really helped me to realize that I shouldn’t be afraid of an apple or a whole grain. Working with her I was able to lose 30 lbs
I am hoping to keep on track with her program and lose 50 lbs more. Now, if only I could get to the gym lol.

5I searched for a nutritionist in Seattle and Angela’s name kept coming up. I asked my Ob and my primary care doctor to recommend a nutritionist and they both recommended Angela. Her knowledge of nutrition is second to none! I heard her explain things that I have never never heard before. I would recommend her to anyone, without reservation.
Review by Cindy R, January 6, 2011-





5What a great way to start the new year! I contacted Angie in December and have been working with her for about a month now. I feel lighter, less anxious, more in control and I am definitely seeing results. She has a great caring nature and I look forward to each and every call we have. I have recommended her to my two sisters (hope they read this!).

5I’ve had the pleasure of working with Angie for the past few months. She helped me lose 30 pounds and has taught me how to eat healthy and be more active while balancing my life. I came to Angie for a diet, but I don’t feel like dieting anymore. I know how to eat and enjoy food without giving it all the power. I enjoy her straight forward talk and warm contagious enthusiasm. I am really happy with my results!
Review by AJPeter, December 19, 2010-





5I recommend this Nutritionist.
I have had the pleasure of working with Angela over the past couple of months – what a find! I feel like a new woman. She really listened to me and helped me figure out what I have been trying to figure out with all my on and off again dieting over the past four decades. I started losing weight immediately and have lost weigh weekly ever since. I know that I can do this. I just needed someone to help me figure out the best way to approach this. I am very impressed with Angela and highly recommend her!

5Go See Angela!
I’ve worked with a few nutritionists in the past and I can honestly say that this was one of the best experiences I have had. I truly appreciate how detailed Angela is and that she addressed my specific concerns and needs. Her program is definitely not a canned product. In one month she addressed three specific health conditions and was able to help me lose 12 pounds. My blood sugars came into check within a week and a half and I have more energy than I ever remember having in the past. I am taking a short break over the holidays and then will pick up my time with Angela again in January. Like her other reviews, I can’t stop talking about my experience!

5I had a great experience
i moved here from Arizona and found myself up 15 pounds. i decided to take up tennis and wanted to compete. angela put together a program that had me leaner and stronger in no time. i can do this program on my own. that was really important to me. my results were pretty immediate. as far as i am concerned, she’s a genius.
Review by RLancer, December 3, 2010-





5Outstanding Experience
I was referred to Angela by my doc a few months back. I didn’t want to go on medication, but I knew that I’ve had a tough time in the past sticking to a diet. I have been more than pleasantly surprised by how easy Angela has made this on me. I get to eat real food and have still kept a few of my vices – all while losing weight and seeing my numbers come back into line. I didn’t know eating healthier could be this easy and this effective. I always tried to do things too fast – too drastically. I’ve told everyone about my experience with Angela. Like her other referrals, my only wish is that I found her sooner. She is on top of things, extremely responsive, really listened to me and created a plan that I can follow forever.

5Angela Made a Huge Difference in My Life!
I attended a workshop over the weekend which included several opportunities to pair up with a partner you didn’t know to talk about various subjects related to food. I talked to so many people who struggle with the ‘eat when you’re hungry’ and ‘eat what your body wants’ concepts — and I used to too – but not since my work with Angela Pifer.
Restriction and deprivation are no longer a way of life for me. I still work on these every day and don’t expect perfection, but am aware of the behavior. What I realize more than anything is that the way I live/eat now is a gift, so thank you to Angela! Not just a gift of health, but a gift of feeling free and not feeling guilty. Now I’m working to incorporate more conscious eating principles into my life, as well as being more aware and tapping into the issues beyond the food. As we all know, there is no magic bullet and new habits and patterns take time, so I’m working each day on new things that help me reach my goals. I just want to tell everyone what working with Angela meant to me – she made a difference in my life and I appreciate it very much.

5Angela Helped Me!
I am a 49 year old woman who was treated this past year for Celiac- Sprue Disease. When I was looking for a nutritionist in Bellevue, Angela was my first choice for many reasons. I knew that I would need a certain level of support to help me address my health concerns and to help me stick with a new plan. Angela paid great attention to details. As I got to know Angela, I began to realize the depth of her knowledge about nutrition, diet, exercise, and disease prevention to name a few, was superior. She has a strong desire to find different ways to help patients, especially women, be healthier and to solve difficult health problems. As a registered nurse for almost 30 years myself, I am impressed with her drive to find holistic, healthy ways to help our bodies heal and to prevent further problems. A great many women would be thankful in years to come for what she can contribute to health care.

5I am amazed at the service
I am amazed at the service I was provided during my time with Angela. I had been to a hospital dietician before and the experience wasn’t a good one. I heard about Angela from a two different people and thought I better give her a try. I am glad I did. I have learned how to reverse diabetes through my diet and I have been able to drop three of my meds, the fourth one soon.
Review by C. Thompson, July 21, 2010-





5Angela is a one of a kind nutritionist!
I have been working with Angela for over 10 weeks and I cannot tell you how her program has changed my life. Angela is very knowledgeable and she is able to bring an individualized, one-on-one, element to weight management that is missing from other programs. I lost weight on my own before working with her but I had reached an impassable plateau. Once I began following my personal eating and lifestyle plan, I started seeing results. Not only have I been able to loose additional weight but I have developed lifestyle changes which will benefit me for the rest of my life. It is amazing how alert and energized I feel since beginning the program. Thank you Angela! I look forward to seeing you soon.

5Great Nutritionist!
I highly recommend Angela. I have had on again, off again issues since I was a kid. She figured out my digestive issues and I have been symptom free for five months now! I am impressed with how much help I received. I called her on a Saturday to ask a question and she answered.

5I highly recommend Angela!
I had the pleasure of meeting Angela this winter when I contacted her for nutrition and weight loss counseling. Throughout my lifetime, I have tried many different ways to lose weight and have always failed. With Angela’s program I learned how to understand the food I eat and how my body works with this food. Angela did not restrict my eating habits but showed me how to introduce healthier things into my life. Angela taught me which foods encourage a healthier lifestyle and healthier living. She also showed me how to increase my exercise so that my body would work more efficiently towards my goal. Through Angela’s program I stopped thinking about weight loss and began thinking that I was learning to change my life.

5Five Star Nutritionist
Angela has changed my life. I wish my doctor had recommended that I see a nutritionist, but then I don’t know if he would have recommended that I see this specific nutritionist (I don’t feel I would have experienced this level of results with anyone else). I needed accountability, a structure that was realistic and that I could do long term. I weigh less now than I did before I had my kids. I have kept the weight off for 8 months now (longer than ever before) and I know that this time my success will be long term. I am calmer, off many of my medications and I have learned to believe in myself – truly trust myself and my choices again. After 30 years of emotional eating, I didn’t think that was possible. If you are ready – I HIGHLY recommend Angela.

5Angela taught me how to eat and now I am teaching my family
Angela hasn’t just shown me how to eat, she has taught me how to eat. I get it. I used to think it was willpower and now I realize that I was just going about eating and exercise all wrong (she would say ‘some right and some that needs in improvement’). I felt like I was spining my wheels month after month. If only we were taught this at an early age. I’ve lost 17 pounds over the past two months. The best feeling is that my family is starting to eat healthier too. I had to visit my doctor to have my blood pressure and diabetes medications reduced. My long term goal is to come off of these completely…I am well on my way. Don’t wait another second, call Angela!

5Truly Amazing Experience
I have cancer and was losing too much weight. My ND referred me to a nutritionist. My clothes were literally hanging off of me and my energy was in the dumps. Through my (daily!) work with Angela, we had my weight stabilized within a week, she worked within my lifestyle and appetite level (which has been nill, do to my treatment) and offered me plenty of fast, convenient, tasty and healthy options. I am really blown away by the amount of time and energy she put in to help me. This has allowed me to stop worrying about my weight and get back to living and enjoying my little girl. I HIGHLY recommend Angela Pifer!
Review by StacyP, June 10, 2010-





5Figured out and impossible Situation
I sent Angela a personal note thanking her for the extra amount of patience she had with me, then thought it a good idea to let everyone know how truly amazing she is. It was wonderful to have her to go to with all my questions. Her help and advice was invaluable. I now know how to eat! She did a great job putting together menus – considering I am gluten intolerant and allergic to dairy, eggs and other specific foods….being hypoglycemic didn’t help either. I know from experience that it is next to impossible to figure out how to eat healthy and balanced in my situation. But, she did it! I can’t say thank you enough!! I tried to figure this out on my own and just kept finding that my choices were becoming more and more restrictive. I wasn’t making any progress. Angela changed my life. Thank YOU!

5Grateful for new eating principles
After 40 years of emotional eating I am finally feeling like I am in control and not the food. I have lost 5 pounds and 2 inches off my waist and I’m not even hungry! I give full credit to you and your principles. Thank you to Angela for coming into my life!

5Angela Pifer from Nutrition Northwest is great!
I have spent a considerable amount of time with Angela understanding her business and how she runs it. I am very impressed with her level of knowledge, her ability to explain what she does and how to identify those that could benefit from her services. Based on that information and the consistency of her professionalism and integrity, I have recommended Angela to friends and family members and will continue to do so. Angela works with people that have problems and helps them recognize the problems and either manage or solve the problem. I am proud to know her and recommend her to others.

5Best investment I could have made – my health
After diagnosed (with Type II diabetes) I felt helpless. I can?t believe that I was told I would be on medication for life and after working with you for two months, I was taken off my medication and my sugar levels are normal.

5We are done dieting
Working with Angie has been life changing. Her program is what you do when you are done dieting.
It is a great feeling to not be so hung up on food. It is just absurd that the diet industry has brainwashed the public when the truth is so simple. I have to say though, I can’t remember overall feeling this good. I am noticing so many changes. And, to be honest, we (my husband & I) are actually having fun with all of this. It is challenging, but I think we are doing it in such a way that sets us up for long-term success.

5So smart and professional!
Angie is a dream to work with: organized, thoughtful, and a true networker. She has big plans for making a positive contribution in this world, and with her connections and follow-through, she is going to do huge things. I have seen first-hand her ability to impact a life both directly and through a series of other connections. Angie’s generous spirit, high intelligence, and drive to make the world a better place make her someone definitely worth having on your team

5Life Changing Weight Loss
My experience with Angela has been life changing. I have lost 102 pounds and counting. I had given up thinking that I would ever lose this weight. It has taken work on my part, but now I know what to eat and I get to make the choice to be good to myself everyday. Angela gave me the support and the kind ear that made this happen. I give her all the credit and she gives me all the credit; we are quite a pair.

5Holistic approach is easy to understand and practical to implement!
Angela Pifer is a gifted nutritionist. Not only does she have a very thorough knowledge of food, nutrition and dietary restrictions, she can translate this knowledge into practical applications that help people implement her advice. She has a vast storehouse of resources at her fingertips including specific products for restricted diets and where to buy them, recipes and referral partners. Her instruction makes complex ideas easy to understand and includes a holistic approach to leading a healthy lifestyle that goes beyond basic nutrition.
