Learn why meeting with a registered dietician may help you achieve your goal weight at Prevention.

If the scale hasn't budged since you turned 40, try making an appointment with a registered dietitian (RD). In a University of Minnesota study, researchers instructed 26 middle-aged adults to meet with a dietitian weekly for nearly 3 months. Those who attended all scheduled sessions lost 67% more weight than those who skipped out on appointments. Even better news: Although not all dietitians accept health insurance, many plans do offer partial or full coverage for affiliated practitioners, depending on your needs. Call your provider to find out what your plan includes.
