Hey guys do you consult a nutritionist or doctor before embarking on any weight loss program?

I haven't so far. It is probably a good idea, especially if you are new to dieting and unsure about what is the right way to go. I have always tried to eat healthy, with some indulgences of course, and when I saw that I needed to lose some weight I used a diet I know to work for me.

To be honest, I never have. I know it is always strongly suggested but since I have never really been on drastic weight loss programs, I didn't feel that it was necessary to go and see a professional.

I don't really know anyone that ever has. I don't need to lose weight, but I like to stay fit. I guess if you were really over weight and it was hurting your health then maybe talk to your doctor.
