Lesley Langille
MS, RD, Counselling Dietitian, Mom of Two
I’m a mom of two adorable boys and just like many of you, deal with common issues such as picky eating and food throwing (who doesn’t?). I too, am attempting to raise healthy and independent eaters, which certainly is not without hurdles.
I’ve discovered the challenges of picky eating and the joys of a glass of wine, all at the same time. I believe that nutrition and eating should be fun. My goal is to help simplify the feeding process and present nutrition information in a real and easy way to understand.
I completed my Bachelor of Science in Nutrition at Acadia University and went on to earn a Master of Science in Applied Human Nutrition at Mount Saint Vincent University in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Before focusing on pediatric and family nutrition, I practiced in the areas of chronic disease prevention and healthy weight loss. I’m a member of the College of Dietitians of Alberta and a certified Craving Change expert who uses motivational and problem-solving techniques to help clients reach their nutrition goals.
In my spare time (aka ‘in my dreams’) I enjoy reading and rock climbing, and spending time with my family.

Amanda’s love for helping others behind-the-scenes began in 2012 as a website administrator for various volunteer groups. It brings her great joy to help fellow dietitians grow their outreach in a collaborative effort to raise the profile of the profession.
![I’m feeling ALL of the feels right now. Anyone else? 🎄🥰😭😩😢❤️
Excited one minute and sad the next. It’s weird... seeing Christmas lights, decorated trees and hearing Christmas music this year feels different. Sort of warm and fuzzy/depressing and emotional 😞 Hopefully I’m not the only one! 😕
But. One thing that always feels good is baking with my kids. It brings back memories of me baking with my mom and grandma, which always feels so good. My kids love pouring, mixing, cutting, and decorating and love even more seeing the finished product 🥰
It’s the one Christmas tradition that feels normal this year - no masks or social distancing required 🙌✨
[partner] I’m proud to work with my friends at @madewithlocal (always—I LOVE this Canadian company!) who put together a special bundle this holiday season (the Gingerbread Bundle!) to bring the spirit of the holidays to your kitchens. These cute little gingerbread cookies are not only delicious, but nutritious too, which the dietitian-mom in me loves😊
It comes complete with:
- 2 Original Goodness granola bar mixes
- 1 mini pack of Crosby’s molasses
- 1 pack of ginger from the Gathering Place Spices
- 1 gingerbread man cookie cutter
- One of @madewithlocal new recipe booklets (includes the gingerbread cookie recipe!) 🎁
You can purchase the Gingerbread Bundle on @madewithlocal ‘s online shop (link in bio! ☝️).
