WHAT ARE THE QUALIFICATIONS OF A REGISTERED DIETITIAN? A registered dietitian is a food and nutrition expert who has met academic and professional requirements including:
-Earned a bachelor's degree with course work approved by ADA's Commission on Accreditation for Dietetics Education.
-Completed an accredited, supervised practice program at a health-care facility, community agency or foodservice corporation.
-Passed a national examination administered by the Commission on Dietetic Registration.
-Completes continuing professional educational requirements to maintain registration.
-Registered dietitians who are members of the American Dietetic Association are not only food and nutrition experts—they are leaders in the field of dietetics. Every one of ADA's wide array of member benefits is designed to advance their knowledge and skills and enhance their networking opportunities. HOW IS AN RD DIFFERENT THAN A NUTRITIONIST? The "RD" credential is a legally protected title that can only be used by practitioners who are authorized by the Commission on Dietetic Registration of the American Dietetic Association. Some RDs may call themselves "nutritionists," but not all nutritionists are registered dietitians. The definition and requirements for the term "nutritionist" vary. Some states have licensure laws that define the range of practice for someone using the designation "nutritionist," but in other states, virtually anyone can call him- or herself a "nutritionist" regardless of education or training. Individuals with the RD credential have fulfilled specific requirements, including having earned at least a bachelor's degree, completed a supervised practice program and passed a registration examination — in addition to maintaining continuing education requirements for recertification.

Protein is necessary for weight loss and maintenance. This is one of the foundational necessities. Whether you utilize a bariatric surgery, or GLP-1 medication, or a general diet like weight watchers the need for protein never changes. Make sure you see a registered Dietitian whi is trained to get your metabolic needs calculated. This way you can focus on the number you need. Protein needs are calcualted based on height and metabolic weight or estimated weight of active bone/ muscle tissues. An activity factor then needs to be added to compensate for exercise and provides you the ability to increase bone density and muscle mass which ultimately increases your metabolism or total calories burned a day at rest. The 6 foot man will need more than the 5 foot woman. People do not have one blanket number for protein. This is the number one reason for weight loss stalls. Check put my new article on protein, I hope it helps you in your journey ☺ https://mbsweightloss.com/why-higher-protein-intake-is-essential-for-long-term-weight-loss/
