Guest guest Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 We have no authority! We have no clout! We are not part of the medical team! Who do we think we are, doctors. You just do nutrition, why do you need a medical history. We are not part of healthcare or healthcare screening or listed under my health insurance policy coverage. Dietitians are just " foodies " writing the same old stories about food, nutrition and recipes that we already know. You do not have to be a dietitian to write about or practice nutrition. On Twitter people are tweeting that dietitians want people to be fat so we have jobs... Duh!

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Wonderful. I fowarded to my daughter an RD and a University  professor. Ir sounded (minus the expletives) like some of her student conferences. She could also do one about the parents who call her to discuss their University students grades. ________________________________ To: rd-usa Sent: Sun, February 20, 2011 8:34:02 AM Subject: Re: Need some help  Le me explain what my personal " project is " - there is a site here http://www.xtranormal.com/ that my daughter sent a spoof on college professors and students (so funny).
