[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I felt like disordered eating what coming from her teammates and coach so the nutritionist has really showed what is correct. And there is a healthy dose of eat what you like (even when that is junk),[/quote]

OP please clarify that you used a registered dietitian nutritionist, or a sports dietitian, and not just a "nutritionist." At least I hope you did.[/quote]

Dietitians are told that they are the only people qualified to dispense nutrition and health information.

However, I have worked with many over the years (through my job) and found that many of them are biased and not amazing at being kind to those they are counseling—which then results in the person being counseled feeling afraid or resentful of the changes.

Just because someone went to become an RD doesn’t mean they are the ONLY ones who can do the job. If the OP’s daughter and family are doing well and have good energy, then clearly the outcome was positive. Saying “omg you went to the wrong person” isn’t useful or accurate. [/quote]
