Helping You Feel Prepared for Your Big Day

When you’re looking for a wedding nutrition program, there are so many factors to consider if it’s right for you. I want to make the decision as easy as possible for you! Take a look at the resource center below for answers to your burning questions!

What is The Bridal Dietitian?

The Bridal Dietitian is led by Maddie Alfiero, a Registered Dietitian, Certified Yoga Instructor, Reform Lagree Pilates Instructor, and Confidence Coach.

The Bridal Dietitian is a rolling eight-week program that helps brides-to-be and/or bridal parties, mothers of the bride, and future mothers-in-law who want to lose weight and feel confident on the wedding day. It consists of live Zoom virtual wellness sessions focusing on nutrition and movement through Healthie. The eight sessions are designed to help you tackle any struggle and make healthy eating feel effortless for the wedding day! Every session concludes with a Q&A to ask your burning questions.

Individualized calorie deficits will be provided.

On Healthie, you will have access to chatting with Maddie individually and/or with The Bridal Dietitian group as well as free recipes, a general meal plan, grocery lists, food/water/exercise tracking, self-care techniques, and more!

I created my Healthie account, but it prompted me to fill out forms before I could sign up for a session. What are these?

Once you create a username and password, you will be prompted to complete four forms: Group Telehealth, Liability Agreement, HIPPA, and the Nutrition Assessment. All forms must be completed before signing up for a session(s).

*It is important to download/update your Zoom settings before your first session.
