Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Profile by Sanford and a regular dietitian?

Profile is specifically designed for weight loss with structured plans, accountability systems, and regular monitoring. Regular dietitians help with nutrition generally; Profile nutritionists specialize in sustainable weight management.

Will I need to give up foods I like?

No, your plan includes foods you enjoy. We teach portion awareness and balance, not elimination. You'll learn how to include your favorite foods within a healthy eating pattern.

How are Profile plans personalized?

Your registered dietitian assesses your eating patterns, preferences, health conditions, and lifestyle to create a plan specifically for you. It's not a generic diet; it's designed around your needs.

Does Sanford provide medical weight loss medications?

Sanford's healthcare system includes doctors who can prescribe weight loss medications when appropriate. Talk to your primary care doctor or ask our nutritionists about referral options.

How long does weight loss typically take?

Healthy weight loss is typically 1-2 pounds per week. Timeline depends on your starting point, health conditions, and consistency. We focus on sustainable loss, not speed.

Can you work with dietary restrictions or allergies?

Absolutely. Our nutritionists create plans around vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, allergies, and other restrictions. We're experienced with diverse dietary needs.
