Trying to find a dietitian/nutritionist [Forum]

Today I tried to find a dietitian or nutritionist near me. Silly me, I thought it would be like finding a local dentist. Don't call it a complete failure. But you would think that in a large metropolitan area there would be plenty of them. Well, I found some, but not very tight and it was not easy.

First off I tried the phone book.If seeking a nutritionist dietitian in the address book you will see great color full of ads for Nutrisystem diet and other popular programs followed by few other listings in small print. As pleasant.

So I tried typing the word nutrionist in online yellow pages. what I've gotten ranged from list for the CNG and other vitamin shops, to listing for establishments that provide food to low-income mothers, actual ad nutritionists.But many phone numbers, which I called didn't work, and those who did were for nutritionist who worked for some insurance plans that I wasn't.

So I called my health insurance provider and asked them they find me dietition or nutritionist who is on my piano. the operator asked me "this is diabities?".I said "it's not for weight loss".He said "Ok, is not covered Dietitians for calories".

Now this is interesting because overweight are guilt to sensitize all prizes and anything else .... but the weight loss is not covered at least for my business.

But the operator let me know that they have coupons and Discounts to Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, gyms and other services. so I guess that save face a bit.

I found a place that I liked, but is a bit far off only to go to an Office I would hate to think of doctors. what would happen if I lived in the rural area.

Now I see why Nutrisystem, Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers are so popular.
