Working document
The weekly meal plan handoff checklist
A step by step checklist for the part of nutrition counseling that decides retention: what you confirm before you build the week, how you hand it over, and what you check by Thursday.

Resources for private practice dietitians
Practical working documents for the parts of a nutrition counseling practice that nobody teaches in a dietetic internship: pricing, plan production and client follow through.
Everything here is meant to be used rather than read. The calculators run on your own numbers and store nothing. The comparisons name the software dietitians actually shortlist and stick to scope and fit rather than inventing feature claims. The checklist is the protocol we would hand a new dietitian joining a practice on day one.
If you want the longer arguments behind these tools, The Counseling Table covers credentialing sequence, claim denials, cash pay economics and adherence in more depth. Start with whichever one matches the problem in front of you this week, and ignore the rest until it is your turn to face it.

Calculators for private practice dietitians
Two working calculators for the numbers that decide whether a nutrition counseling practice pays you properly: what your caseload actually collects, and what the unbilled week costs.
Comparisons
How NourishPlanner compares with the other tools RDs use
NourishPlanner does one job for a nutrition practice, weekly plan delivery with a daily check in, so the honest question is what else you still need beside it.
Main guide
Why do so many of my clients stop following the meal plan by the second week?
The pillar guide settles why nutrition clients abandon a sound meal plan in the second week and what to change in plan design, handoff and check in cadence to keep them.
Magazine
The Counseling Table
Practice craft, reimbursement rules and counseling economics for registered dietitians running their own nutrition practice.
About
Who writes all of this
A short page on who writes these calculators and checklists, the nutrition counseling caseload they came out of, and why the work here keeps returning to clients who abandon a sound meal plan in week two.
The downloads are free, plan production is not
Take the handoff checklist, run the caseload numbers, keep the comparisons open in a tab. If what you conclude is that the six days between nutrition visits are where the caseload leaks, that is the exact seam this product sits in. A demo shows you one client's week from the Sunday plan to the Thursday adherence view, with your notes and billing left where they are.
