Hey There - I'm Ann Kent MS, RD, CDCES, CIEC
If you’ve ever tried to change the way you eat, it can feel overwhelming to know where to start.
Whether you're managing blood sugar, navigating a GLP-1 medication, trying to make peace with food, or just want to sort out the noise of nutrition recommendations you’ve heard — you don't have to figure it out alone.
I work one-on-one with people who are ready for personalized, evidence-based nutrition guidance that doesn't rely on restriction, guilt, or a one-size-fits-all approach. I believe in a team approach to nutrition: I come with the science and you come with the expertise of your own body.
Together we’ll create a plan that works with your life.
When I'm not nerding out on nutrition science, you'll probably find me playing magnatiles with my preschooler or out on the golf course, hiking, or rock-climbing with friends. Either way, I always make dinner with the same principles I bring to every client session — balanced, real food that actually tastes good and makes life better.
If you want to try my favorite recipes, they're inside the Peas and Hoppy Meal Guides app. I also host the podcast Nutrition Nuance With Dietitian Ann, where I answer your biggest nutrition questions every week with the honesty and nuance you deserve.
Areas of Expertise
Blood Sugar Management
Ann Kent has worked as a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist for over a decade and specializes in insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and gestational diabetes. Whether you’re using medication or managing blood sugar using nutrition and movement, Ann is happy to support you where you are and guide you toward your goals.
Understanding exactly how food affects your blood sugar can help you prevent the progression of type 2 diabetes, manage blood sugar levels during pregnancy, or reduce the need for medication.
Ann will help you build a realistic, sustainable approach around your life while still enjoying the food you love.
GLP-1 Medication Support
Starting a GLP-1 medication like Wegovy or Zepbound is a big decision. Whether you’ve already started the medication and want to optimize its impact and minimize side effects, or are considering your options and want a professional opinion, you’ll find that Ann will be your advocate.
Ann will help you consider all factors of GLP-1 medications, including long-term health concerns of losing lean body mass, the psychological component to weight and body image, and understanding the benefits of improved cardiovascular health and kidney protection.
You deserve support for GLP-1 medication that sets you up for long-term success, not a rebound.
Before starting coaching for GLP-1 support, listen to this podcast overview about nutrition and lifestyle support for GLP-1 Medication:
Nutrition Support for ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, and Cognitive Function
Did you know that the brain is the body’s most energy-demanding organ? If you’re not fueling it appropriately, symptoms of ADHD, anxiety, depression, and cognitive decline can worsen.
Ann Kent co-wrote The Brain Plate: a Cookbook, Meal Plan, and Supplement Guide for Mental Health, which outlines how to support your current and long-term mental health using nutrition.
Ann can help you apply the concepts in this book to your individual lifestyle - from learning how to manage the appetite changes that come with medication to identifying specific supplements to consider for your mental health needs.

Intuitive Eating & Making Peace With Food
You are the expert of your own body.
Your body knows how much food you need, and when you need it. But somewhere along the way, many of us have lost touch with our hunger cues and have forgotten how good it feels when you feel good in your body.
Maybe it’s a diet that had you count points or calories. Maybe it was a work schedule that didn’t allow you to eat when you were hungry. Maybe it all started when you were 10 years old and your aunt made that comment about your body.
As a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, Ann’s role is to help you re-learn how to listen to and trust your body and its cues - while learning about how different types of food nourish your body in different ways.
If you are tired of the restriction-craving-binge-repeat cycle, making peace with food and ditching diet culture will give you the lasting food freedom you’ve been craving.
"Ann helped me to frame the new diet in a healthy way to avoid triggering disordered eating behaviors. She also explained how my body is processing foods right now and how to work with my body instead of seeing the diet as a restriction. She gave me concrete ideas for how to plan foods that will work with my diet that are also enjoyable for me."
-Michela
“Ann is a wonderful listener and addresses every question with care. She creates a non-judgmental space to learn and explore nutrition. In a world where there is so much information and new fads, it was refreshing to have Ann navigate the world of food in a simple and attainable manner."
- EA
“The meal guides and the one-on-one sessions with Ann have helped me to be more thoughtful about my food choices and about planning ahead instead of grabbing the easiest, unhealthiest food.”
- KT
“Working with Ann has helped me reject diet culture and see food as nourishment and self-love.”
- Jackie
“Ann has guided our meetings in such a way that I can now see and sort out the differences between what I think is real to what is false, and vice-versa as it pertains to emotional eating. Empowered is a word that comes to mind!”
- Elaina Behm
How 1-1 Nutrition Coaching with Dietitian Ann Kent Works
There are no pre-set packages here, because your needs are unique. Ann individualizes every aspect of your care, including how often you meet and how long you work together. You and Ann will decide together at each visit what support you need based on what's actually going on with you.
Appointments are available virtually nationwide and in-person in Fort Collins, Colorado. Medical Nutrition Therapy is only available in states where Ann is licensed.
Initial Session — 75 minutes / $175
Your first session is a deep dive. Ann takes the time to understand your full health history, your goals, your relationship with food, and your life. You'll leave with clarity, a direction, and a plan that's actually yours.
Follow-Up Sessions — 60 minutes / $125
Follow-up appointments are where the real work happens. You'll check in, troubleshoot, adjust, and keep building. How frequently you meet and how many sessions you need is something Ann tailors to you — not a predetermined package.
Ann is an out-of-network provider. Many clients are able to use HSA/FSA funds for nutrition counseling with a referral from your healthcare provider, and Ann can give you a superbill after the visit to submit to your insurance for reimbursement. Check with your insurance provider about potential reimbursement.
