The Weekly Walk

Join Joyce and Eric as they share their tips for a successful relationship.

Join Joyce & Michele Fumagalli, Dietitian, Mother, Athlete, Foodie and owner of Fit Plate Nutrition, for a casual conversation you can walk to. Dig into what it means to eat intuitively, the power of breakfast, and how determining what influences your food thoughts can reprogram how you think about food.

About Michele

I help women and athletes relearn how to fuel and nourish their body & mind without diets.
Diet culture tells us we need to look, eat and move a certain way to have greater worth and value. It causes confusion with food choices, food guilt, restriction, poor body image, and moving as a form of punishment rather than enjoyment.
I bring awareness to diet culture and its negative effects in order to help others break free and live healthier, happier lives. Using an intuitive eating approach, I work with clients to improve confidence in their food choices and relationship with food, body and movement.
I have always loved sport and fitness, however my passion for empowering others through nutrition didn’t begin until my mid-twenties. Dietetics is my second degree and career. I received my first degree from University of Notre Dame in Business-Marketing. After a year of playing professional soccer in Germany and the US, I worked at Gatorade in business development. Part of my role at Gatorade was to educate athletes, teams, coaches and athletic trainers on sports nutrition. I loved learning the science behind sports nutrition, educating the athletes and began wanting more involvement and a greater impact on the Athlete's nutrition. This brought me back to school in pursuit of becoming a nutrition expert, a Registered Dietitian.
Coupling my expertise in food, nutrition and vast experiences in sports, I am a credible voice of reason, encouragement, and guidance in this crazy chaotic world of food. I provide comprehensive client-centered nutritional therapy, partnering with each client in order to find what works best for them. I provide one-on-one and small group coaching, as well as wellness workshops, and am a nutrition expert speaker and writer. I am blessed to have helped 1000’s and hopeful to help hundreds of thousands more.
