I was questioning staying in nutrition because I heard dietitians say that they felt they didn’t make an impact or their work wasn’t difficult or interesting but this totally changed my mind! What you do sounds absolutely interesting and humbling and it’s reinvigorated my desire to continue with a nutrition degree. Guess it’s all just perspective. 🤗
bro, are u going the general nutrition route or doing the dietetics emphasis route? and yea this field is expected to grow ALOT in the next coming years.
Ezvu the dietetics emphasis most likely because from what I hear it opens a lot more doors to be a certified clinical dietitian for not only being able to do hospital work etc. but increasing opportunities in business nutrition, sports nutrition etc.
GIRRRRRRL LMAO I FEEL YOU. I work in ICU and I get so overwhelmed with pt’s conditions and going through notes from the interdisciplinary team etc but it’s so rewarding when you finally find a solution to help the pt recover and progress into a better state. grateful for ya dietitians ✨✨
i love that you are a nutritionist. Its cool to hear about veganism form a fact based perspective. You know the facts from the source. Love this kind of vlog! So inspiring!
I am currently studying Nutrition and Dietetic Medicine and will graduate as a clinical nutritionist in 9 months- I am so THANKFUL that I discovered your youtube channel! I love these kinds of case study's of patients that you do!!! They are super, super helpful and interesting!
This was so awesome to hear about. As a vegan dietetic student starting my internship in a few months, I’m terrified, so it’s really nice to see somebody so similar to me who’s made it through!! Please keep sharing these stories with us, how you get through the hard days, what you do when you feel like you don’t know anything or feel like you aren’t qualified, how you balance a healthy lifestyle with a full time work life, all of that! ❤️
That TPN patient sounds so difficult and interesting- thanks for going through it! I love your case studies and videos. I am a new clinical dietitian and I refer back to these often❤️
I'm laughing so hard because I did my undergrad in nutrition and remember all of the case studies...they were nothing like this poor patient! Gosh that is so much calculation and consideration because of all of the conditions! You go girl!!!
GIRL I FEEL YOU i'm a new nurse (i've commented on your videos before!), and i work on a cardiac tele med-surg/stepdown unit. my patients are all medically complicated, plus have had surgery on top of it, so nutrition is a huge issue. fluid, electrolytes, nutrition, wounds, and the general trauma of going through surgery.... it's all a hot mess on the daily LOL i respect what you and the dietetic team and nutrition team have to say and advocate for SO MUCH, and even moreso now. :)
Hey Lady, First...I absolutely appreciate your videos and thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge and story on SM. Second...I've always had an interest in diet and nutrition but never really knew where to go to school or how to get started. I currently live in Chicago, unfortunately life got very complicated and I didn't finish HS but ended up getting my GED (LONG STORY!!). I do plan on going back to school to finish my gen eds. I've been looking into two online courses and would like to know your thoughts on them. If you happen to know anything about them. They're more of a health coach certification. The first one is - Integrative Nutrition (IIN) The second is - Nutritional Therapy Association I'm also open to hearing any other recommendations to get started! I would totally appreciate your input!!
Thank you so much for sharing this! I am a sophomore dietetics student right now and this was a good look into the day of a dietitian. When I look to the future I get so scared about getting an internship and then eventually a job. What are some tips you have for getting matched? Also, do you find life as a dietitian now more or less stressful than being a student?
I am a nurse student and always wondered what a clinic dietician did on the hospital and I also considered the education as well, so it was very nice to hear about your day and the case study was the best
I'm studying to become a dietitian (im vegan aswell) and got my first exam on 25 th feb. You inspire me so much Amanda! And I get super motivated watching your vids
Love this day in the life as a dietitian video! I'm in my clinical rotation as a dietetic intern and my brain is so fried by the end of the day! Clinical dietetics is NO JOKE, and requires so much brain work!
I literally just learned about tube feeding and TPN in my nutrition class last week! So excited that you talked about this 😊 can’t wait to be a dietician!
This was really cool to watch as I'm studying dietetics. I really enjoyed when you spoke about the patient that needed TPN. Can you please do more videos like this?
I’m in my last semester of nursing school, so everything you were saying made sense to me and it was so interesting to see what a day at the hospital is like from a dietitian’s perspective!
I am really so relieved that you said you got most of your detailed nutrition education from your internship. I’m a junior in my college nutrition program right now and I feel like I haven’t learned that much about actual nutrition yet!! Your experience makes me feel so much better! Now I feel like what I’m going through is normal.
I loooved this video! my favorite part was you talking through the TPN case study. I'm also a dietetic student and have 2 years left and sometimes lose my purpose. This got me so excited to become an RDN! Thanks for the reminder:)
Wooooowww I LOVED this! I'm a dietetics student, and I understood EVERYTHING you were talking about! This got me so excited for my upcoming internship and career, please keep making videos like this. :)
So refreshing to see a modern Nutrition Dietician, a lot of videos on TH-cam about Dietitians/Nutritionists seem to be filmed in the 90s for an after school program on VHS lol So glad to find someone who looks like me & someone I could relate to on TH-cam ☺️ Thank you for sharing your life with us #subscribed
You made case studies sound very interesting. I have to complete 21 case studies before I graduate in May and I'm going to really pay more attention to them now.
I love this! I’m almost done with my clinical rotation of my internship right now and about to start icu next week 😬 it’s not nearly as bad as I thought it would be!
gurl same! during my internship i was only able to see 3-4 patients a day and i’ve been slowly working up to 6 . it’s hard tho bc our notes are all free text!
I'm so interested in these videos especially because I'm a nursing student! I understabd all the terms you're saying and it gives me a better insight on how I'll work with dieticians in the future 😊
Hi ! I really enjoyed the video! I am actually in school to become a dietitian. I'm about half way done. So any talk about the profession interest me! Love it!
Oh my gosh please do more of the case studies where you explain everything!! 😂that was so interesting lol but at the same time scary that these people really have to go through those things☹️
Thanks for the behind the scenes for TPN 🙌🏾 As an RN I understand the gist of what the TPN is made of and just knew it expired and I had to request another bag ASAP and hang it 😂
Hey Amanda, I am an undergraduate majoring in Nutrition Science at NCSU. I want to know if you have any recommendations on extra reading regarding nutrition. Also, do you have any advice about things I could be doing in my undergraduate to prepare for graduate school? Please let me know! Thank you so much for taking the time to share with the internet your life and perspectives! Marisah
This is so interesting!! I never really knew what a clinical dietician was, but this is so cool to me, and there are a lot of similarities in what you were talking about and veterinary medicine (i am a vet tech!).
Omg your dad was so sweet!! 😍 Also, this video was very interesting since I'm graduating in june and I'm actually thinking about studing to become a dietitian 😁 even tho I'll have to study extra hard to get in that Uni 🙏
The clip of you telling ur dad to go home made me cry lol im a baby today but i lost my dad and i promise every moment like that n life you will remember and regret . Sorry being a downer lol love you
Can you talk about the difference between a clinical dietitian and a registered dietitian. I got into a program but I haven’t gotten into the depth of dietitian and my options! I just found out there’s other degrees like clinical dietitian program and what that is! And the difference!
Thank you for sharing, loved this video! I also want to be a nutritionist but unfortunately is Israel (where I live) it’s so hard to live with the salary. I wanted to ask if I’m the USA it’s much more possible to exist from this salary
This is so interesting omg.. I'm studying pharmacy, and i wanna be able to incorporate nutritional aspects into my field of work. Any other pharm students??? I'm a pre-1, so I'm just starting out lol.
Wow, very interesting! I feel so bad for that woman, though. I can't imagine being in her position. Sounds like your job is very important and there's a lot to it.
hi, can i still become a dietitian if i only majored in nutrition and food science and not dietetics emphasis? is there an alternate path like a coordinated masters degree program that includes the internship? i dont wana go back and get a second bachelor's degree lol
hi! i actually just finished my dietetic internship soo in order to be eligible for an internship you have to take certain core classes. there’s what they call DPD course list and there are nutrition classes and science classes that are required so if you majored in something else you wouldn’t have to go back and get another degree in dietetics but if there are classes you haven’t taken from the list then you do have to go back for those.
i’m not sure about any masters degree accelerated programs, i haven’t heard of any BUT although it’s not required right now they are changing it in a few years where in order to become an RD you will need a Masters degree so that’s something to think about as well
@Simone205 guess we just gotta do the extra bio and chem and few other classes then do the internship. we should have a lot of the prereqs done so it shouldnt be that bad i guess.. what jobs were u able to find just with the food science degree if u dont mind me asking.
Ezvu yes, there are masters programs that have coordinated dietetic internships. UW & UNC are two examples of programs that have these type of programs. These offerings will likely expand as we approach the date when all RD’s need to have a masters degree. Best of luck!
Please keep telling us about your case studies lol I’m a dietetics student and that stuff is so interesting to me #talknutritiontome
Me too! I'm currently studying to be a dietitian and I love these videos because I see my future there!
Same!
Your dad visiting you is so sweet!

True
Love this day in the life as a dietitian video! I'm in my clinical rotation as a dietetic intern and my brain is so fried by the end of the day! Clinical dietetics is NO JOKE, and requires so much brain work!
Thank you for being so in depth about the different patience you see different scenarios being a dietitian
I literally just learned about tube feeding and TPN in my nutrition class last week! So excited that you talked about this 😊 can’t wait to be a dietician!
Absolutely love your videos!! I’m a nutritional science major so all this is so interesting to me💛
are u going the dietetics route or just generalized nutrition?
Kate Russell idk why i thought u were nursing
This was really cool to watch as I'm studying dietetics. I really enjoyed when you spoke about the patient that needed TPN. Can you please do more videos like this?

Goes to show how much work us dietitians do!!! So happy you shared this. We are so much more then meal plans and calculating cal/pro/fluid needs!!!!
I am caring for a loved one and your explanations about TPN, etc. helped so much. Thank you. Happy Belated Birthday!
Hey Amanda. I couldn’t tell if you were or not in the video, but please please please wear your seatbelt! 💕
I am really so relieved that you said you got most of your detailed nutrition education from your internship.

Erin Kelly that sucks.... i’ve learned a lot
optimisticview where do you go??
Erin Kelly Mississippi State University - i’ll be going to medical school though, not the dietitian route.
Wow. You were just in school and now working as a dietitian - so cool. This was a great behind the scenes look 👍🏽
I loooved this video! my favorite part was you talking through the TPN case study. I'm also a dietetic student and have 2 years left and sometimes lose my purpose. This got me so excited to become an RDN! Thanks for the reminder:)

Good luck!! 🤗
taciturntaty how was it?
Your yoga flow is so inspiring
I wonder how many people will actually see *that* clip 😳🥰🤭
Sonia Aurell guuuuurl timestamp
You made case studies sound very interesting. I have to complete 21 case studies before I graduate in May and I'm going to really pay more attention to them now.

Ahh hearing your case study example made me miss working in clinical. The investigating and critical thinking is so fun.

I'm so interested in these videos especially because I'm a nursing student! I understabd all the terms you're saying and it gives me a better insight on how I'll work with dieticians in the future 😊
Can you do a dietitian expectations vs reality video? Is this what you thought life would be like as a dietitian while in school?
I love nutrition and want to be a dietitian
Hi ! I really enjoyed the video! I am actually in school to become a dietitian. I'm about half way done. So any talk about the profession interest me! Love it!

Just by Curiosity, how many times a day do you do yoga?

When do you go to India? How long will you be there?

Hi hi love your vids! Don’t forget to wear your seatbelt though!!!

Great videos :) do you ever treat patients with eating disorders?
no, they're usually all older acute patients in the hospital
OMG the last clip :D
Thank you for sharing, loved this video!
I also want to be a nutritionist but unfortunately is Israel (where I live) it’s so hard to live with the salary. I wanted to ask if I’m the USA it’s much more possible to exist from this salary

Really enjoyed watching it.
Love love your videos and content. Thank you for being you! #VeganStrong

rishikeshvinyasayogaschool.com/ same place as before!
So listening to you talk about the patient made me want to go vegan more then ever because so many things can be prevented 🙃😧
Right!?
applesandamandas next video you should make a vegan starter kit with tips and trick on how to make the transition a little bit easier!
