My name is Michele McAlister. I’ve been a registered dietitian nutritionist for over 28 years including over 19 years of diabetes experience and am a certified diabetes educator. In addition to diabetes education I have specialized in weight management as a certified specialist in obesity and weight management. I also have experience in kidney disease management and in working with clients with autoimmune disease, gluten intolerance and food allergies primarily in adults.

I grew up in West Texas and am a Texas Tech graduate. I am the mother of two grown fabulous kids and the wife of a very supportive husband of 28 years living in Abilene, TX. I enjoy tap and jazz dancing and I perform every year with a group of fabulous ladies and men in two productions, lifting weights, walking and any class that resembles dance, and I practice daily meditation.

I enjoy helping others as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist & Certified Diabetes Educator and as a personal coach to cheer you on in your efforts of making changes and providing accountability.

My philosophy is not to just give a person a do’s and don’ts list but to give you practical tips that are realistic for your lifestyle. I’m a realist. I know that people have busy lifestyles and can’t always have the perfect diet or lifestyle.
