“My time taking classes at Bauman College was one of the most valuable and memorable experiences of my life."


I saw an ad for Bauman College in a local newspaper in Sacramento, CA in 2001,and I went to the informational presentation. I had been interested in holistic nutrition since 1992 when I lost over 100 excess pounds (I spent most of life overweight). At that time, I had been maintaining my weight loss for 9 years, and I knew that my passion was helping others learn how to eat healthy and lose weight. I had been searching for a school to get more education in nutrition so that I could broaden my organic chemistry career to include nutrition counseling. I signed up for the nutrition program that evening.

My time taking classes at Bauman College was one of the most valuable and memorable experiences of my life. I learned so much about food and about the body and how to help others change their diets. Some of the most valuable aspects of the training for me were the presentations that we had to give in front of the class, the wide variety of reading material, and the guidelines for successful diet counseling. I looked forward to my classes every week; just being with my instructors and my classmates in the environment of learning a healthful approach to life was so affirming. It nurtured my spirit and filled me in ways that have continued to keep my passion burning.

Since graduating from Bauman College, I opened my own business, named "The Center for Processed Free Living" As a Holistic Nutrition and Weight Loss Counselor, I provide one-on-one diet counseling and teach classes in "optimal nutrition for weight loss" and "cooking for health." Over time, that business has expanded to include weekly podcasts I have lectured to high school students, cancer survivors, and weight loss groups. I am also the creator of Dee's Mighty Muffins, a flourless oat bran muffin made with only natural ingredients and no flour or sugar that are sold in local health food stores. I have recently completed my first cookbook, called "Dee's Mighty Cookbook: Tasty Cuisine for Flourless and Sugarless Living". I have been a guest on over 20 radio shows and appeared on several local televison shows to promote healthy nutrition. The news print has been kind to me as well; there have been many articles written about the success of my nutrition practice and my weight loss ( I have kept off 100 pounds for over 13 years).
