Description

“I’m doing everything right, but nothing’s working.” 

I bet you've heard that before!  In this episode, I’m joined by registered dietitian Devin Breedon to talk about the hidden barriers that impact weight loss, blood sugar, and overall health.

We also pull back the curtain on what registered dietitians actually do during a patient session, why behavior change matters more than meal plans, and how medical providers can make stronger, more effective referrals to dietitians.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why patients may struggle with weight loss even when they’re “eating healthy”
• The surprising role structure, routines, and stress play in nutrition success
• Why meal plans often fail 
• Simple nutrition frameworks you can use with patients
• What clinicians should say when referring to a dietitian
• Practical advice for dietitians trying to build referral relationships with medical providers
