How many times have you gone on a diet, convinced that it was enough to cut back on bread, give up sweets, and do a couple of jogs to get back in shape? 

Dr. Michele Moriconi – nutritionist, graduated in Nutritional Sciences and Motor Sciences, would quickly tell you: “Wait a minute... that's not really how it works.”

His story begins in 2012, between wellness and fitness, with a passion for movement that takes him to England to deepen all that concerns physical activity and body composition. 

However, it is upon returning to Italy that the “revelation” comes: people train a lot, but the awareness of what and how to eat is still far too little.

So Michele rolls up his sleeves, studies, trains, experiments. 
For him, nutrition and physical activity are not two parallel tracks, but a single track, the one on which true wellness moves. 

And not just for aesthetics, but for true health, the kind that keeps you away from serious issues and helps you to live better (and longer).

When he moves to Bergamo, he continues to work in the gym world… then Covid hits and changes everything. 
No physical contact, no scales or skinfold calipers, just questions, questions, questions. 

It is during this period that he learns to do a very detailed medical history: eating habits, schedules, recurring mistakes, lifestyle, unconscious behaviors. 

Every answer is a piece of the puzzle that helps him really understand the patient. 
And without a thousand technological tools – which are not always necessary – Michele understands that to help people feel good, you need to know them inside out. Simple? No. But fundamental.

In his approach, there are no rigid schemes. 
Instead, there is a direct line with the patient, which must be kept strong. 

Because a diet that works is one that fits, one that shapes itself to your needs (not just the scale). Michele is one of those who follows you step by step, corrects you when needed, motivates you when you'd give up, and – above all – explains the why of things. The three steps to transform the body (and the mind)

• Lose body fat
• Tone and increase muscle mass
• Eat more… but without gaining weight

A concrete, realistic path that takes into account your body composition and your goals. 
And that teaches you not to go back, because the real challenge is not just to lose weight… it’s to maintain the result over time.

The truth that no one tells you (but you should know)

Today the problem is not just the weight itself, but where it accumulates. 
Abdominal obesity is the most dangerous: it brings with it diabetes, high cholesterol, hypertension, joint problems, heart attacks, and even some cancers. 

Yet, too many still rely on “miracle diets” or medications, without wanting to truly change their lifestyle. 
And here Michele is clear: no pill can ever replace a balanced diet and regular physical activity.

No to shakes, yes to real food

Michele doesn’t like shortcuts. He will never suggest meal replacements or miracle supplements. 
Instead, he will teach you to eat well, to read labels, to understand which foods are good for you and which are not. 

And he will always remind you to limit alcohol, cured meats, nitrites, nitrates, and packaged foods as much as possible. 
In recent years, Michele has also decided to delve into eating disorders: anorexia, bulimia, binge eating. 

He does this because he knows they are increasingly widespread, especially among young people. And he does it with a strong awareness: love and willpower are not enough. A team of professionals is needed. And action needs to be taken quickly.
Do you know that frustration of “but I’ve only lost half a kilo”? 
Well, he explains that if you’ve lost two centimeters off your waist and gained muscle, you’re on the right track. 

Because yes, muscle weighs, but it weighs well. It protects you, makes you burn more even while you sleep, and keeps you away from future problems.

Today Michele specializes in weight loss (fat, not muscle!). 
But he never talks only about kilos: he talks about health. 

And he does it with a strong conviction, rooted in his journey and experience.

His mission is to make people feel good, helping them understand what they eat, why they do it, and how they can improve their diet without giving up taste (and without finding themselves dreaming of pizza in the middle of the night due to hunger). 

Nutritional education, then.  Knowledge. Awareness. 

Knowing that a diet is not a punishment, but an investment in yourself.  And above all, that it requires consistency. 

There are no shortcuts (spoiler: not even those in pill form). That's why today he also works in a hospital, within a center dedicated to eating disorders, where he is part of a multidisciplinary team of specialists. 

It's not an easy job, but it’s one of those that truly makes a difference. 
And he often participates in events and outreach evenings to raise awareness and inform families, young people, and teachers about the importance of recognizing these issues early and seeking help.

If you are wondering why to be followed by a nutritionist…

• Because there is no diet that works for everyone.
• Because every body is different, every story is unique, and every journey needs to be built with care.
• Because learning to eat well is the greatest gift you can give yourself. 

And because, as Michele says, the more muscle mass you have, the more you protect yourself. Even as you age.

If you're looking for a professional who listens to you, guides you, and truly helps you… now you know where to look.

Michele Moriconi offers consultations both in person and online. 
And he never leaves you alone. 
Because true health is a journey to be taken together.
