SHOPPING LISTS
April 14, 2022
Here is a shopping list for groceries that take little to no meal preparation. This was designed with the older population in mind and can be utilized by people who only have access to a toaster oven. The list is great for those with a low budget and can improve access to nutrition services due to increased affordability.

Julia DeLissio
Since Julia’s sophomore year of high school, she knew that she was destined to become a Registered Dietitian.
In her personal experiences in and out of the classroom, Julia has learned and applied principles related to nutrition in her everyday life.
Julia graduated from SUNY Oneonta in May of 2015, earning her B.S. in Dietetics. She then spent a few years working in a variety of gyms before matching to her Dietetic Internship. During that time, Julia cultivated a unique skill set from each gym. She began my journey at Crunch, where sh became interested in joint mobility and function. Julia then switched jobs to increase her education on anatomy and physiology, and become a personal trainer.
Julia clocked in over 150 hours of training under One-on-One Physical Therapy, while learning advanced anatomy through Equinox’s EFTI training program. She then relocated to Intoxx on Staten Island, where she single-handedly opened and ran a nutrition education department.
“My goal is to integrate nutrition and exercise science through a multi-disciplinary approach by backing up information with current scientific research. I believe that food is fuel and the human body is the vehicle to create motion. In order for this vehicle to run, it must be given the appropriate energy (calories, fat, protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and water) to create movement.”
