People keep bringing up dieticians as if there's some kind magic, secret food they have access to that normal people don't. It's complete nonsense. Bodybuilders and actors and athletes eat the same chicken breast, rice, and broccoli that you can buy at the store.
- chmod600 5y agoHaving someone to do the tracking and handle the decisions sounds like a huge help to me. Both of those things cause stress which is hard to sustain.
- vkk8 5y agoMaybe it was once, but things like Myfitnesspal make diet tracking pretty easy for everyone nowadays. As for timing and macronutrient composition of foods, that's something the dieticians can probably help, but it's also something you can learn in a few hours by watching Youtube. Having trainers, dieticians, etc. professionals around you to help with everything probably makes it easier in the sense that you probably save one or two hours of planning and organizing your life per week, and probably your programming is a bit more optimized, but it's hardly a game changer. If you are somewhat devoted to the topic, you can learn and do all the same stuff yourself.
- phobosanomaly 5y agoYeah, it's literally paying someone to follow you around all day and control what you put in your mouth. There's no guy in spandex telling me not to buy those Reese's Pieces at 7/11 when I'm bored on a Sunday.
- Someone 5y agoMoney and (loss of) fame are great motivators. Also, for this having made it, money-wise, being able to afford a great cook, having a personal trainer who reminds you of your goals, being tempted less because you never visit a supermarket, etc. all help.
