I posted something similar on my private blog (if you'd like an invite, please email me!) but I thought I'd post it here as well.
I have an appointment with a new nutritionist on Monday morning and I want to make the most of it. What I'm looking for (what I believe I need right now to get back on track) from a nutritionist is the following:
a) give me structure (aka a plan to increase how much I'm eating on a gradual basis so as not to freak me out completely (and thus get obstinent.)) [With no calorie counting necessary.]
b) give me challenges (like you need to eat x before working out; or when you go out to dinner, order y; etc.) so that I can enlist my hubby, friends, fitness pros - all people who are willing to help me get back on track.
c) and hold me accountable for said plan and challenges.
Those of you who have experience with nutritionists (especially "good/helpful" ones,) does this sound reasonable? Or am I hoping for too much?
