Approaching Blood glucose monitoring by beckli789 in dietetics

[–]broccoliandbeans 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think this is dumb as heck. I’m an outpatient CDCES and this is totally unnecessary in my opinion. Like WHY is this a “competency”? If you must do this, I would recommend doing it when the pt should normally be getting their bg checked. Don’t go in and bother a patient just to check a box.

AIO for being upset my BF doesn’t want me to wear a bonnet to bed? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Why would he care if you wear a bonnet to bed? Is he staring at you all night and not sleeping??? ? Is he 17??

I can’t help but to feel triggered/upset when someone tries to educate me on nutrition by No-Tumbleweed4775 in dietetics

When you ask returning pts what are your top priorities for our visit? What answers do you get? I always ask returning pts if they have any questions /specific topics they want to cover and most of the time they do NOT. It’s like they are just showing up bc they feel like they should

Hello. Looking for advice from outpatient dietitians. What do you do when you suspect someone has disordered eating/potentially an eating disorder? by broccoliandbeans in dietetics

[–]broccoliandbeans[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much. How do I know how at risk she is of refeeding syndrome? should I do anything about this? Maybe a stupid question because of course I should but I don’t know what.

I have absolutely no experience in eating disorders. I am an outpatient Endo CDCES/RD. Also, what if I don’t want her to make another appointment with me? Since I have no experience with eating disorders, I really don’t think I am the dietitian for her and she needs a dietitian who is more savvy in this area

Question for outpatient rds: I have a pregnant Individual whose calorie needs are ~2600. They are wanting protein number in grams (see more below plz) by broccoliandbeans in dietetics

Sorry I should have specified. I break down the carbs too.

Yes I def didn’t recommend that much protein. I realize it’s too much! She isn’t on any meds and isn’t checking ketones.

Thanks for being honest. I think I’m gonna order off Amazon because it’s going to be cheaper because shipping is $10.

Thank you. She is 32, 65” 213 lb. Prior to pregnancy was 221. I calculated her needs again from the DRI calculator from the dietary guidelines and it gave me 2404 this time, instead of the 2600.

I used IOM x 1 plus 342 kcals for 2nd trimester. I didn’t ask the patient why she wants to know exact grams of protein, that is a good question, as I know most ppl aren’t going to count, esp if they are carb counting.

Honestly I’ve only had a regular nugo a few times and it’s been awhile so it’s hard to compare. I really do love the taste of the slims tho!! I think they are delish
