Did you know that there is an obesity epidemic?
This was the topic of one presentation at the state annual dietetic conference. The obesity epidemic. Complete with maps. The speaker even showed us all how to use a BMI chart.
I am not sure he was informed that he was speaking to DIETITIANS! (please excuse the sarcasm)Other than that nonsense, the trip was a blasty. I was able to speak with legislators about supporting coordinated school health and explain what exactly a registered dietitian is. They did a good job of feigning interest...
Overall a good week. Up next on the internship agenda: 3 more weeks of food service (hairnet and all
), and preparing to Happy Friday!
