[quote=Anonymous]My 13 yo DD falls into the overweight category and our pediatrician suggested taking her to see a nutritionist. We are open to doing that if it will help, I am just not convinced it will and will just end up being a big waste of $$$. I would say that DD eats decently at home and has a pretty well rounded diet, but her main issue is that she eats way too much and isn’t active enough. She eats large adult size portions and snacks a ton with friends after school/on weekends. She knows what foods are healthy and what is not, we talk to her about portion sizes, eating slowly to know when you’re full, etc. - so none of that would be new to her. For those who have seen a nutritionist with their child, what exactly do they do and was it helpful?[/quote]
