Read More »Dietitians meet a wide range of clients who have varied health goals. It’s during these sessions that we realize how many food myths and dietitian stereotypes remain. In this article, I’ve gathered questions and comments that dietitians hear often and most of the time, cringe a little at. While reading this humorous article, you will learn more about our vision of healthy eating, as dietitians-nutritionists, through this decade (and century!) and you’ll be able to save time on your next visit with your nutritionist! Here's a collection of my favorite '' problematic '' themes : 1- “ You can’t get it, you don’t eat (or don’t like) this. ” There’s a misconception that dietitians-nutritionists eat perfectly and do not like “ junk food ”. To this I reply : “ What! Your dietitian-nutritionist is a human! ” Actually, we eat everything, even poutine and cake! And we love them! Conclusion : We definitely get it !

Read More »Do you know many toddlers or elderly people who eat according to the calorie content of food? I don’t. Often, certain individuals pay too much attention to calories and not enough to their eating experience. It’s as if we were preoccupied by the price of gas instead of the fact that our car is full or not. If we fill our tank in excess and decide to fill it extra because “ it’s worth it ” or “ it’s so fun filling the tank tonight! ”, will the car remain functional? Just like too much gas, too much food causes damage that takes a long time to repair. If weight and health management were as simple as “ calorie accounting ”, the worldwide weight problems would be solved! 7- “ All I want is a nutrition plan. ” or “ I just wanna know what to eat to reach x goal.” It would be so simple if it worked that way. When we’re asked this, it’s a bit as if we were asked for a specific diet. Even if our title is “ dietitian ”, doesn’t mean we’re “ serial-diet-creators ” ! With experience, we learned that applying a plan or rigid diet, like commercial diets, truthly lead to weight regain in the next 2 to 5 years after stopping follow-ups. The reason is simple : when we follow a diet, we don’t learn to eat better. We learn to follow a plan and when we’re done, we go back to our old habits. The best bet for success is to make small, durable changes. Several small changes will become big changes in no time. Trust me ! 8- “ Am I allowed to eat this? ” or “ Can I have a cheat day? ” Are we implying that we restrict ourselves on the other days? It reminds me of something… Oh, yeah! A diet! You must suspect it now : No cheat days, because nothing is forbidden! In the end, the question to ask yourself is : if you eat this “ cheat ” food, are you truly savouring it? 100%? Are you enjoying it? Otherwise, why did you eat it? It’s an unmeasurable loss of happiness and gustative pleasure that you’ll never see again ! Conclusion : Don’t be afraid to ask questions to your dietitian-nutritionist, but give them the chance to prove you that all of these myths and stereotypes are behind us!
