  • Updated

Your first nutrition appointment is an opportunity to meet your dietitian, discuss your goals, and begin building a personalized plan. Preparing a few things ahead of time can help ensure your session runs smoothly.

1. Complete Your Intake Forms

Before your appointment, you may be asked to complete intake forms in your Client Portal.

These forms help your dietitian understand your:
    •    health history
    •    medical conditions
    •    medications or supplements
    •    nutrition habits
    •    personal goals

Completing these forms ahead of time allows your dietitian to make the most of your session.

2. Confirm Your Appointment Time

You can view your upcoming appointment in your Client Portal.

We recommend logging in a few minutes early so you can easily access your session when it begins.

3. Choose a Quiet, Comfortable Space

Your appointment will take place through your Client Portal, so it’s helpful to join from a location where you can speak openly and focus on the conversation.

Try to find a space that is:
    •    quiet
    •    private
    •    free from distractions

This helps you get the most out of your session.

4. Come Prepared With Questions or Goals

Your dietitian is there to support you. It can be helpful to think about what you would like to focus on during your first session.

Some examples include:
    •    improving eating habits
    •    managing a health condition
    •    building a sustainable meal routine
    •    increasing energy levels
    •    supporting weight or performance goals

There are no “wrong” questions — your dietitian will help guide the conversation.

5. Have Any Relevant Information Ready

If applicable, it may be helpful to have the following available during your session:
    •    recent lab results
    •    a list of medications or supplements
    •    questions about your current diet or routine

This information can help your dietitian provide more personalized guidance.
