It’s not that they’re born magically thinner or with higher metabolic rates. And believe it or not, it’s not because they love lettuce more than cake. The reason why dietitians are fit is because they have learned throughout the years how to maintain their weight for life. Schooling helps for sure. There, they learn the tools of the trade that they can then put to use. But more than anything, it’s their behavior. A dietitian’s goal is to walk the walk.
- She packs her lunches daily
- She exercises 4 or more times a week
- She dines out less than 3 times a week
But does she ever have cravings like “normal people,” you may ask? Absolutely! Although they seem like an alien species at times, dietitians are in the business of food because they truly love food — all types of food! And believe it or not, they even have cravings! But alas, like all of us, they realize that giving into them too often is not a healthy habit.
