Kim Porterfield, CN, CFS
|
Kim didn’t set out to be a Clinical Nutritionist and Fitness Specialist. At her lowest point, she was crying in the swimsuit aisle at Target — feeling like a stranger in her own skin. She had tried everything: diets, workouts, sheer willpower. Nothing worked. What she needed wasn’t another plan. She needed a teacher. That’s when she met Keith Klein, CN, CCN. Keith didn’t just help her heal — he became her mentor, her nutritionist, and eventually her colleague. He taught her everything he knew. For more than 20 years, Kim has carried that legacy forward while building her own reputation as one of Houston’s most trusted nutrition experts. KIM TODAY Clients describe Kim as the perfect mix of expert, friend, and the “cheapest therapist in Houston.” She’s known for solving the problems most plans miss — whether the barrier is food, hormones, mindset, or life itself. Her coaching goes beyond fat loss. It’s about clarity, confidence, and lasting change. Every plan is science-backed, psychology-informed, and designed to work in the context of real life — not against it.
