18 | Who can help me lose weight for good and build healthy habits? Do credentials matter?

from More Than A Number | Lose Weight, High Protein Diet, Low Carb Diet, Meal Prep, Lose Weight Fast · host Sam Barone | Registered Dietitian, Certified Specialist in Obesity & Weight Management, Weight Loss Coach, Speaker

Hey friends, welcome back! Have you ever stared at someone’s bio and thought (maybe mine?!): “Nutritionist… Dietitian… Coach… Weight loss coach… Macro coach… Who is actually qualified to help me?” You’re not alone. In this episode, I’m breaking down what all these titles actually mean and how to figure out who’s the best person to help you lose weight—especially now that we’re in the holiday season and heading into the new year, when everyone and their grandmother wants to “start fresh” and the internet suddenly explodes with programs and promises. Because here’s the reality: These days, it feels like anyone who’s ever eaten food or lost a pound can call themselves an expert in nutrition, weight loss, and health. And while many people truly mean well, there can be very real physical and mental consequences when you put your trust (and your money) in the wrong hands. My goal with this episode is to help you understand: What nutritionists, registered dietitians, and coaches actually are What each one can and cannot do When it may be appropriate to work with each And how to spot both red flags and green flags so you can make informed choices *************************************************************************** FINALLY move the chains on your weight loss goals and start making progress with your Winning at Weight Loss Breakthrough Session! This is a 1 hour, 1 on 1 coaching session where I will complete a full lifestyle audit & give you the game plan you need to start WINNING.
