    You're probably better off looking for someone who has an actual qualification that doesn't involve Kelloggs coupons and 10 words or less.

    I find Karen great, knowledgable & very motivating.
    She does a monthly online fat-loss programme if that is your goal.

    If you don't want any food pyramid rubbish, and rubbish it is, then its probably not a dietician you need. If you look on the NTOI website there are plenty of NTs listed.

    Dieticians are properly qualified, but the choice is yours.

    I know would choose a qualified surgeon if I needed an operation....

    I'd love to know why you think ALL dieticians promote the food pyramid.
