Why I Became a Dietitian

[@LifeofaButterfly13]

That's awesome! I love how your love of food and healthy eating grew as you learned more.

[@SarahMoranNutrition]

Thank you! It's pretty cool to look back on how it all came together.

What is a good occupation or job to help build a resume for the dietitian field if you’re still in the earlier stages of school but want to get your feet wet as much as you can?

Hi Sarah! Thanks so much for sharing your experiences. I am a freshman in college and Dietetics is one the fields I am seriously considering right now. Would you be willing to answer some more in depth questions that I have about this field?

[@chelseaarceri2160]

Thank you for making this vid, I've just started my Masters of Dietetics in Aus and I have very similar thoughts and feelings as you in regards to passions, beliefs and morals surrounding food. I think I'm on the right track :)

[@SarahMoranNutrition]

Ah that's so exciting! Good luck in your program!

Sarah, hearing personal experiences is so nice to hear. In my opinion, hearing personal experiences from other people such as their career options, educations, obstacles they faced etc., helps other people relate better to what they want to do with their lives instead of just reading something online or in a test book 😊. Thanks for sharing and I always watch all your videos!😁

[@SarahMoranNutrition]

So happy to hear you liked it! I find things like this helpful so I was hoping others would as well. And thanks for always watching and commenting! :)

Omg I’m in shock about your coming about major story. We have so many similarities. I’m in mortuary science for the same reason! And I’ve been vague with “what I want to be when I grow up” answer as a kid which was Doctor or an artist haha. Just a weird coincidence I wanted to share. I’ve been obsessed with what I eat, and what im putting into my body since my health class at freshman year of high school, but never considered that occupation at the time. I get scared about being responsible for someone’s life haha. And only now I’m career searching. This seems really interesting but no one believes id be suitable for this career since I’m not a social person and I get anxious easily :,) my mom thinks it’s a joke for some reason because Of those reasons and my preference to eat junk food. I’ve been struggling with major choices since hs. Thank you for sharing everything ! I have two questions though! When you’re working on cases, is there like challenging stuff involved like math and measurements? And are you able to make a stable living? I want to pursue arts on the side and be with my family :)

Cool! I was thinking about making a vid like this about becoming a music therapist... This was interesting. BTW we met at playlist :)

[@LifeofaButterfly13]

That's so cool. I did my hs senior thesis on music therapy.

[@SarahMoranNutrition]

Do it! I'm sure it'd be helpful to people considering that career. Also, so glad we met at Playlist!

Im a senior in high school and I’m applying for dietetics programs, what college did u go to? Also can u link the other videos u mentioned about what to look for in schools and how to become a dietician? That would be so so helpful.

[@DarkBlueNutrition]

Love this video! I recently made a video on why I chose dietetics. I am in a grad/internship program currently, so I won't officially have the RD title until early next year :) Love to see more in the dietetics community out there!

[@SarahMoranNutrition]

Good luck with your internship! Love meeting RDs to be!

[@OswaldDigestiveClinic]

Congrats!! Welcome to the field!

[@JohnDoe-xh4ix]

Would you need to be a registered dietitian If you wanted to create a calorie counting website like myfitnesspal. By that I mean would you need that credential for it to be legal?

[@SarahMoranNutrition]

I'm not really sure if there are any regulations around that sort of thing.

[@socialplayground1]

Good stuff

[@SarahMoranNutrition]

Thanks!
