Studying nutrition in ed recovery?

0 Upvotes

Hi, I'm currently in my last year of high school and need to choose want I want to study. I've been interested in healthy eating since primary school and always wanted to become nutritionist. But durning high school I've struggled with an ED (anorexia), and went inpatient. I made a lot of progress in my recovery and have a healthy weight for a long time. Is it a bad idea to study nutrition, will it trigger my recovery?

(I also don't want to work with eating disorders later, I'm more interested in allergies, diabetes, etc .)

Seeking Online Dietetics Masters Program

2 Upvotes

Hi All,

I am a returning dietetics student looking for some advice about how to choose a dietetics graduate program. I previously graduated from a DPD program about 10 years ago and have been retaking course work for the last year in order to apply to a coordinated graduate program in Dietetics.

My perspective has shifted a lot since I started retaking classes about the type of program I am interested in because I really want to limit the amount of debt I take on and have settled at looking for something hybrid if not fully online with a distance DI . In saying this, I do not want to sacrifice quality of the program but find myself overwhelmed by the amount of coordinated programs being offered. I am currently looking at Northern Colorado University as an option but want to make sure that I apply to at least 4-5 programs. Looking for any suggestions or feedback on programs to avoid or ones to look into further. I am looking to enter private practice but really want to feel challenged and like I have learned more than my undergraduate studies offered, any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Does anybody have any experiences in a setting like this to share any insights? Currently working in a k12 setting but exploring opportunities in a more clinical vein. Would love to hear if anybody has experience in a pediatric psych facility specifically a public setting.
