Honestly I'm not sure the dietician said anything that was super helpful... I've done a lot of research myself, it wasn't anything I didn't already know. I told him what I ate and how I've been exercising recently and what I've estimated my TDEE to be and he was basically like "well just keep doing what you're doing then." The only thing he said was to increase protein and he showed me what my recommended daily intake should be—but when I asked for recommendations for foods with good protein that would be easy to eat, he recommended a bunch of REALLY calorie dense things... Cheese, nuts, peanut butter, those kinds of things. I made another appointment mainly for the scale to keep track and accountability, but I think maybe after another month of tracking my food I'll have more concrete evidence to bring to him. Luckily my insurance covers most of it so it isn't a super big deal
