"Don't count calories, but calories still count!"

Low Carb Dietitian Melanie Walters tells us how she helps her clients to lose weight and get healthy!

Melanie is a dietitian that works at Sante Medical in Brisbane, QLD. She's a very popular low carb dietitian, which is something of a rarity - especially after how Dietitians Australia treated Dr Gary Fettke for advising his patients to try low carb diets!

Dietitians have classicly been opposed to low carb, but Mel uses it to help her patients to lose weight and get healthy, including Carnivore Patients if you need help.

She became a dietitian to combine her love of food and desire to help others. Melanie enjoys helping people optimise their health and wellbeing by improving their lifestyle. She provides patients with evidence-based nutrition strategies to help them meet their goals through practical dietary recommendations and sustainable health and lifestyle changes. She has a strong interest in therapeutic carbohydrate restriction (low carb) but understands there is no one diet fits all approach.

She finds low-carb eating easy to adapt to her busy lifestyle, including plenty of eating out and was able to reduce and maintain her weight without feeling restricted. After finding personal success, she has seen similar success with many patients for weight loss and many other chronic conditions. In her spare time, she is busy looking after her two young daughters, collecting recipe books and adapting recipes to reduce carbohydrates (including some delicious desserts!)
