Online Dietitian

A history of diets, the schedule of your job, who cooks, what you hate, and any medical limits. Then one to three changes that fit that life. A plan that requires batch cooking on Sunday fails for people who work Sundays. Say so.

Follow-up is where it becomes coaching instead of a lecture. You report what happened to the change. The dietitian edits. If every week is a confession, the change was too big.

Video is an advantage. You can show the pantry. You can show the lunch you actually pack. A clinic office with a plastic food model is worse data.

Have a rough recall of three days, including the day that was chaos. Do not clean it up. The cleaned-up version gets a cleaned-up plan that misses you.

Come with the boring facts: your schedule, who does the cooking, the foods you will not eat, the budget, and the medical limits. The more real the input, the less generic the plan. A dietitian working from a fantasy version of your week writes a plan for someone who is not you.

Bring recent labs if food is tied to a number, and a rough three-day recall including the chaotic day. The goal of the first hour is fit, not perfection, so do not save the embarrassing details for a session you will never book.

The change is small on purpose so you can run it against a normal week without a spreadsheet ruining your life. You notice what worked, what did not, and where the plan met a wall at 9 p.m. That report is the raw material for the follow-up.

If every week ends in a confession, the change was too big and the fix is the dietitian's job, not your willpower. Sustainable beats optimal every time you actually have to live it.
