About Fit With Mitch

Fit With Mitch combines evidence-based nutrition counseling with personalized fitness training to help Portland residents achieve sustainable weight loss. Founded by certified trainer and nutritionist Mitch Rodriguez, our practice focuses on creating realistic lifestyle changes rather than quick fixes. We believe in educating our clients about proper nutrition, exercise fundamentals, and mindset shifts that lead to long-term success.

Our approach emphasizes accountability, support, and gradual progress. We work with individuals who've struggled with yo-yo dieting, busy professionals who need structured guidance, and anyone looking to build healthy habits that last. With over eight years of experience in the Portland fitness community, we've helped hundreds of clients not just lose weight, but maintain their results and improve their overall quality of life.

Services Offered

Our comprehensive weight loss program integrates nutritional counseling, personal training, and ongoing lifestyle coaching. Each client receives a customized meal plan based on their preferences, dietary restrictions, and metabolic needs. We don't believe in extreme restrictions - instead, we teach portion control, meal timing, and how to make healthier choices in real-world situations. Our nutrition sessions include grocery store tours, meal prep workshops, and dining out strategies. The fitness component includes one-on-one personal training sessions, group fitness classes, and home workout programs. We assess your current fitness level and create progressive exercise plans that fit your schedule and physical capabilities. Beyond the gym, we provide habit coaching to help you overcome emotional eating patterns, stress management techniques, and accountability check-ins. Our digital platform allows clients to track progress, log meals, and communicate with their coach between sessions.

What to Expect

Your journey begins with a comprehensive assessment including body composition analysis, metabolic rate testing, and lifestyle evaluation. We discuss your weight loss history, current challenges, and realistic goals to create a personalized strategy. Week one focuses on establishing baseline habits and introducing your customized nutrition plan.

Weeks 2-4 involve implementing your exercise routine while fine-tuning your nutrition approach based on your body's response. We meet weekly during this phase for coaching sessions and progress monitoring. Months 2-3 emphasize building independence while maintaining regular check-ins. We gradually increase your responsibility for meal planning and workout progression. The final phase focuses on maintenance strategies, helping you navigate challenges independently while knowing support remains available.

Why Choose Fit With Mitch

Unlike large commercial weight loss chains, we provide truly personalized attention with flexible scheduling that works around your life. Mitch's dual certification in nutrition and personal training means you get comprehensive expertise from one trusted source rather than bouncing between multiple providers. Our success rate speaks for itself - 85% of clients maintain at least 70% of their weight loss after one year.

We pride ourselves on creating a judgment-free environment where you can be honest about your struggles. Many clients have told us they finally found an approach that doesn't feel like punishment. We use technology to enhance your experience, not complicate it, with user-friendly apps for tracking and communication. Most importantly, we're invested in your long-term success, not just quick results that don't last.

Insurance & Pricing

While our services aren't typically covered by insurance, we accept HSA and FSA payments. Individual coaching packages start at $150 per month for basic nutrition counseling, with comprehensive programs ranging from $300-500 monthly depending on service frequency. We offer payment plans and occasional promotional packages for longer commitments.

Many clients find our services cost-effective compared to expensive meal delivery programs or multiple gym memberships. We're transparent about pricing upfront and don't require long-term contracts, though clients who commit to longer programs often see better results and receive volume discounts.

First-Time Patient Tips

Come prepared for your initial consultation with a food diary from the past week and any relevant medical history. Wear comfortable clothing for body composition testing and be ready to discuss your lifestyle honestly - including work schedule, family commitments, and previous weight loss attempts. We'll provide specific preparation instructions when you schedule.

Expect your first appointment to last 90 minutes. Bring questions about our approach and don't hesitate to share concerns about past experiences with dieting or exercise. We want to understand what has and hasn't worked for you previously. After your assessment, we'll schedule follow-up sessions based on your needs and preferences. Most clients see measurable progress within 2-3 weeks of starting their program.
